I would 1000% recommend! After a shower my water wouldn’t shut off, my landlord lives out of town and I wasn’t sure who to call. I saw a post of Facebook raving this company for the same issue so I called. Kyle answered my call and offered to FaceTime to see if he could walk me through getting my water turned off. After seeing it wasn’t obvious where to shut it off he said I’ll be there in 30 minutes! I’m so happy I called and grateful for a reliable and professional local company. Call them, you won’t regret it!

I thought we might have to replace our washer, but Kyle worked his magic and our washing machine is now working like a charm! I have heard that many of the newest washers are less reliable and don't clean as well, so I am happy to keep this old beast of a machine in service!

We had an amazing experience with Waywest! They helped us several times, first was an emergency with our fireplace and they came the very next day we phoned and we also had a ductless heating and cooling system installed with them too! They were very thorough, professional, and fast! Do not hesitate to call Waywest! Kyle is especially amazing, he is always willing to help when he can and is very kind!

The consultation process with Kyle and his team at Waywest was quick and efficient, they knew their products and what would work best for us. They were able to fit us in a tight schedule and got the job done in a timely manner. They cleaned up any mess they may have made and were polite and personable with all members of my family, the dog included. Thanks so much for doing such a good job!

Choosing the Right Freezer for Your Business Needs

Selecting the appropriate commercial freezer is essential for maintaining efficiency and meeting your specific business requirements. Here are key factors to consider when choosing a freezer for your Nanaimo-based business:

Business Type and Size:

    • Restaurants, Fast Food, & Cafes: These establishments often benefit from upright freezers due to their space-saving design and easy access. Consider models with multiple compartments to store different types of food separately.
    • Grocery Stores & Convenience Stores/Corner Stores: Walk-in freezers and coolers are ideal for these businesses, providing ample space to store large quantities of perishable goods. Ensure the freezer has adequate shelving and organization features to maximize storage efficiency.
    • Hotels & Resorts: These businesses may require a combination of walk-in freezers for bulk storage and smaller, upright freezers for kitchen use. Blast freezers can be beneficial for quick freezing of prepared meals.
    • Florists: Florists need specialized coolers that maintain a constant temperature and humidity level to preserve the freshness of flowers. Choose models specifically designed for floral storage.

Industry Requirements:

    • Health and Safety Standards: Ensure the chosen freezer complies with all relevant health and safety regulations, including temperature control and sanitation standards.
    • Energy Efficiency: Look for freezers with high energy efficiency ratings to reduce operational costs and environmental impact. ENERGY STAR-rated models are a good starting point.

 

 

Specific Needs:

    • Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) Systems: For businesses that require precise temperature control and flexibility, VRF refrigeration systems offer a reliable solution. These systems can adjust the refrigerant flow to different areas, maintaining optimal conditions throughout the storage space.
    • Blast Freezers: Ideal for businesses needing rapid freezing capabilities, such as bakeries or seafood processors. These freezers ensure that products are frozen quickly, preserving quality and extending shelf life. 

 At Waywest Mechanical, we assist businesses in Nanaimo and the surrounding area in selecting and installing the perfect freezer systems to meet their specific needs. Our experienced team provides expert guidance, ensuring your refrigeration needs are met efficiently and effectively.

Signs You Need a Walk In Cooler Repair

Not sure if your commercial freezer needs repairs? Keep an eye out for these telltale signs.

Unusual Noises

Don’t ignore unusual sounds coming from your walk-in freezer or cooler. These usually indicate that something is wrong with the freezer, and having it checked out by a technician right away as opposed to waiting for the problem to get worse can save you a lot of money and inconvenience.

Significant Frost Buildup

A lot of frost buildup in your freezer may indicate that there is excessive condensation or that the unit is defrosting and refreezing, which poses a safety hazard. If the frost buildup is accumulating around the door, the seal gasket may need to be replaced. 

Strange Odours

Is there an unusual smell coming from your walk-in freezer? Strange odours often accompany coolant leaks or malfunctioning condensers. If something smells off in your freezer and you can’t find an obvious reason why, call a trusted technician to diagnose and repair the problem.

Leaks

If you notice a leak or water pooling under your commercial freezer, you should get it checked out by a professional right away. Excess water can result in mold or mildew growth, which poses a health risk, so it is important to have any leaks fixed as soon as you notice them.

Inconsistent Temperature

If you notice the temperature of your commercial freezer fluctuating, the first thing to do is check and make sure that the door isn’t being propped open and letting in warm air. If the door is being kept properly sealed but the temperature is still inconsistent, there is an issue and you’ll need a technician to inspect it. When temperatures fluctuate too much, you can end up losing your inventory due to thawing and refreezing.

If you notice any of the above signs, don’t ignore them! Waiting to have your commercial freezer repaired is likely to be more expensive in the long run because if you leave minor problems unaddressed they will only get worse and result in you having to pay for more complicated repairs or emergency service. Waywest is proud to offer reliable, quality commercial freezer services in Nanaimo and the surrounding area.
