About Commercial Kitchen Fix

Commercial Kitchen Fix publishes repair guides for commercial foodservice equipment: ice machines, fryers, dishwashers, ovens and refrigeration.

Why it exists

Search for a fault on a commercial ice machine and you get three kinds of page: a manufacturer's service locator, a local repair company's marketing page, or an article that lists a few error codes copied from another article. Several of those lists are wrong, because they give codes from one model series as though they applied to all of them.

These guides are written from the manufacturers' own service manuals, with the model series stated, and they include the thing most pages leave out: what the repair costs.

How the guides are written

• Fault codes and thresholds come from the manufacturer's service documentation, which is cited at the end of each guide.
• Causes are listed in the order a technician would check them, not alphabetically.
• Prices are ranges from published industry sources, with the year stated, because a price without a date is useless.
• Where a job needs a licensed technician — refrigerant, gas, sealed system, mains electrical — the guide says so plainly rather than talking you into it.

What we are not

We are not a repair company, we do not sell service visits, and we are not an authorised service agent for any manufacturer. Brand names appear only to identify the equipment a guide covers. Each manufacturer owns its own trademarks.

Corrections

If a guide is wrong, tell us and we will fix it and say so. Technicians who spot an error are especially welcome: hello@commercialkitchenfix.com.
