OUR APPROACH

We Skip the Out of the Box Program. Instead, We:

Treating a customer’s business like our own is part of how we operate at Yukon Refrigeration. Technicians are trained to recommend only the service equipment actually needs, nothing more.

  • Walk through your kitchen to identify equipment that would benefit from a maintenance plan.
  • Talk through how often equipment runs, your budget, and anything else that matters to you.
  • Work out how frequently service visits should happen and what each one should cover.
  • Build the program around select equipment, a category, or your whole kitchen, your call.
  • Show up as scheduled, checking for safety issues like loose wiring, frayed cords, and gas leaks, and completing whatever service is needed.

SIMPLE, FAST, RELIABLE

How Planned Maintenance Works

Here’s the path from enrollment to your first scheduled visit.

Call or Request Online

Reach out by phone or online to talk through enrolling your equipment. Nothing has to be broken first.

Custom Program Built

We design a program around your equipment, how it’s used, and your budget, whether that’s one unit or the whole kitchen.

Scheduled Service Visits

Your technician shows up as planned for preventive checks, including safety inspections for wiring, cords, and gas connections, plus whatever service the equipment needs that day.

Test, Document, & Follow Up

Every visit gets documented so you have a clear record, and we keep your program on schedule going forward.

Highly-Skilled Technicians

Technicians train continuously across cooking, refrigeration, beverage, and HVAC equipment, not just once at hire.

We Stock the Most Commonly Used Parts

Genuine manufacturer parts, the ones actually needed most, ride in our trucks. Factory spec only, never a generic substitute.

90-Day Guarantee

Same day scheduling is realistic thanks to a GPS enabled fleet, and every visit carries a 90 day guarantee on both parts and labor.

Thorough, Multi-Point Inspections When You Need It Most

Getting ready for an inspection? We go past a quick look, burner inspection, thermostat calibration, gasket checks, gas pressure testing, and a real cleaning.

All Fuel Types & Configurations

Gas, electric, LP, or dual fuel, every configuration gets serviced. Technicians train on atmospheric and infrared burner systems across every major brand.

Why wasn't a gas leak caught sooner?
URGENCYLIKELY CAUSES

High

A loose connection or worn line rarely announces itself, it usually turns up during a scheduled safety inspection instead.
Why did we fail a health inspection over equipment temperatures?
URGENCYLIKELY CAUSES

High

A refrigeration unit can drift out of calibration quietly, and without regular checks, that drift can drop it below food safe temperatures.
Why does equipment always seem to fail right before a rush or big event?
URGENCYLIKELY CAUSES

High

Heavily used equipment wears down fast, and without a regular inspection schedule, it tends to fail with no warning at the worst time.
Why did a minor repair turn into a major expense?
URGENCYLIKELY CAUSES

High

A problem that would’ve been a quick fix early on often spreads to nearby parts before anyone notices, without regular checks.
Why is unplanned downtime costing more than expected?
URGENCYLIKELY CAUSES

Medium

Without a plan, breakdowns happen on the equipment’s schedule, not yours, and that unpredictability is where the real cost hides.
Why did equipment fail well before the end of its expected lifespan?
URGENCYLIKELY CAUSES

Medium

Skipped cleaning, calibration, and inspection wear down components that would otherwise last years.
Why does the same equipment keep breaking down?
URGENCYLIKELY CAUSES

Medium

Worn gaskets, loose connections, or dirty coils go unnoticed between visits, and each one adds strain over time.
Why is my energy bill higher than it should be?
URGENCYLIKELY CAUSES

Low

Dirty condenser coils, clogged filters, and worn seals force equipment to work harder, which shows up on your utility bill.

The best repair is the one you never need. Build a maintenance program around your kitchen.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Preventative Maintenance FAQ

Answers to the questions we hear most about planned maintenance. Don’t see yours? Give us a call.

What's included in a planned maintenance visit?

Safety checks (wiring, cords, gas leaks), plus whatever service your equipment specifically needs, burner inspection, thermostat calibration, gasket checks, gas pressure testing, and a thorough cleaning.

How is a planned maintenance program customized for my kitchen?

We talk through your equipment, how heavily it’s used, and your budget, then build frequency and scope around that.

Does planned maintenance come with a guarantee?

Yes, every visit is backed by our 90 day parts and labor guarantee.

Can I put just some of my equipment on a program, or does it have to be everything?

Entirely up to you. Programs can cover one unit, a category like refrigeration, or the whole kitchen.

How much can planned maintenance actually save me?

Customers on a program tend to see fewer emergency calls and more predictable costs, since small issues get caught before they turn into major repairs.

Is planned maintenance available everywhere Yukon Refrigeration operates?

Yes, single locations and multi unit operators alike, anywhere in our southern Illinois and western Kentucky service area.
