Common Chilled Prep Tables Issues We Fix
Chilled prep tables are integral to the smooth operation of a professional kitchen, but like all equipment, they can encounter issues that hinder their performance. Understanding these common problems can help you identify when it’s time to call for professional repair services. Here are some typical issues we expertly address:
- Faulty Compressor: The compressor is the heart of the refrigeration system in a chilled prep tables. It’s responsible for circulating refrigerant through the coils to maintain the desired temperature. A faulty compressor can lead to inadequate cooling, causing ingredients to spoil. Signs of a failing compressor include unusual noises, overheating, or the unit not cooling properly.
- Damaged Refrigeration Coils: Refrigeration coils play a crucial role in heat exchange, allowing the unit to cool down efficiently. Damaged or dirty coils can reduce cooling capacity and force the compressor to work harder, leading to increased energy consumption and potential breakdowns. Regular maintenance and timely repairs can prevent these issues from escalating.
- Aging Door Seals: The door seals on a chilled prep table are essential for maintaining an airtight environment, ensuring the interior stays at the correct temperature. Over time, door seals can wear out, crack, or become loose, leading to air leaks and increased energy usage. Replacing aging door seals is a simple yet effective way to maintain efficiency.
- Electrical Problems: Chilled prep tables rely on various electrical components to function correctly. Issues with wiring, thermostats, or electronic controls can lead to erratic performance or complete failure. Our technicians are skilled in diagnosing and repairing electrical problems to restore your equipment to optimal condition.
- Condenser and Evaporator Fan Failures: Fans in the condenser and evaporator units are vital for proper air circulation. If these fans fail, the refrigeration system can overheat or fail to cool evenly. This can result in uneven temperatures within the unit, compromising food safety and quality. Regular inspection and maintenance can catch these issues early.

Selecting the Right Chilled Prep Tables
Choosing the right chilled prep table involves considering various factors such as the menu you plan to offer, the size of your kitchen, and your specific operational needs. Here are some tips to help you make an informed decision:
- Menu Considerations: The type of food you serve will influence the size, model, and features of your prep table. For example, a sandwich deli might require a larger unit with multiple compartments to keep a variety of ingredients readily accessible. Similarly, a pizza parlor might benefit from a model with a spacious top for assembling pizzas and ample storage for toppings.
- Kitchen Size: The layout and size of your kitchen play a significant role in selecting the right prep table. If space is limited, consider models with a drawer/door combo to maximize storage while minimizing the footprint. Ensure the unit fits seamlessly into your kitchen workflow to enhance efficiency.
- Additional Features: Modern chilled prep tables come with a range of features designed to improve functionality. Look for models with adjustable shelves, easy-to-clean surfaces, and energy-efficient components. Some units also offer digital temperature controls and alarms to alert you to any issues promptly.
