The emergency call

When Berry Fresh in West Palm Beach needed emergency assistance with a walk-in freezer over the weekend, 2R Cooling & Refrigeration responded to address a low-refrigerant condition. The immediate priority was supporting refrigeration and helping protect the restaurant’s frozen food inventory.

Emergency Refrigerant Service

  • Our team identified low refrigerant and added 3 pounds of R-404A.
  • The project photos document the outdoor condensing unit and the service setup, including the digital manifold, temperature probes, and refrigerant cylinder on a charging scale.
  • This visit addressed the immediate refrigerant shortage. A follow-up leak search is planned to investigate the refrigerant loss and determine the corrective work needed.

Evaluating Repair and Equipment Replacement

The existing refrigeration equipment is approximately 12 years old. After the leak search, we’ll review the findings and equipment condition to help Berry Fresh compare repair and replacement options.

The recommendation will depend on what the inspection reveals, the required repair, and the condition of the system—not age alone.
