Commercial HVAC Maintenance Checklist for Restaurants and Retail

For restaurants and retail businesses, HVAC and refrigeration downtime means lost revenue and spoiled inventory. A preventive maintenance routine protects both. Here's what to cover.
Comfort HVAC
Inspect and clean evaporator and condenser coils.
Check refrigerant levels and charge.
Test capacitors, contactors, and electrical connections.
Clear condensate drains to prevent water damage.
Replace filters on a regular schedule.
Calibrate thermostats and controls.
Refrigeration
Inspect walk-in cooler and freezer door gaskets and hinges.
Clean condenser coils on reach-ins and display cases.
Service ice machines — cleaning and sanitizing.
Check temperatures and defrost cycles.
Inspect for refrigerant leaks.
