Precision Cooling for Specialized Applications
Commercial chiller installation, repair, and maintenance from DNI Heating and Air in Boulder, Colorado.
When temperature control fails in a Boulder brewery or medical facility, you risk product loss, equipment damage, and operational shutdowns. Chillers provide precise cooling for walk-in coolers, walk-in freezers, beer lines, ice machines, margarita machines, and ice cream freezers. DNI Heating and Air specializes in all types of commercial chiller services for breweries, coffee shops, restaurants, and medical facilities across Boulder.
Chillers work by removing heat from liquids or air and maintaining specific temperature ranges required for food safety, beverage quality, or medical storage. We handle installation when you are setting up new equipment, repairs when components fail, and maintenance to prevent breakdowns. Each application has different cooling demands, and we adjust our approach based on whether you are chilling beer, storing vaccines, or keeping ice cream frozen.
If your Boulder business relies on chiller equipment and you need service or installation, contact us to discuss your specific requirements.
How We Service Different Chiller Applications
We start by assessing your equipment and understanding the temperature range you need to maintain. In Boulder, where altitude can affect compressor performance and refrigerant behavior, we check that your chiller is properly calibrated. Our technicians use temperature probes, pressure gauges, and refrigerant analyzers to measure system performance and identify issues like refrigerant leaks, compressor wear, or thermostat drift.
After service, you will notice stable temperatures, consistent product quality, and fewer alarms or shutdowns. Routine maintenance prevents spoilage, extends equipment life, and reduces the chance of emergency repairs during busy periods.
We clean condenser coils, check refrigerant charge, test safety controls, and inspect evaporator fans. For walk-in coolers and freezers, we verify door seals and insulation. For beer chillers, we check glycol levels and line temperatures. Ice machines require regular cleaning to prevent mineral buildup, while margarita machines need calibration to maintain slush consistency. If a compressor fails or a refrigerant leak develops, we repair or replace the affected component and recharge the system.
