The BB is the Beverage-Air back bar cooler, with 73 numbers such as BB24, BB24HC and BB24HC-1. The doors are hinged or sliding, and the cabinet sits low behind a bar. Older BB numbers without the HC ending are also on the list.
A bar cooler lives with spills and traffic. Sugar sticks to gaskets and condensers, and the doors are opened all night. We check the gaskets and the condenser first, then the drain, the fans and the control. After a busy weekend we often see coolers that never recovered.
Older BB cabinets are common, and we repair them and say plainly when a repair is not worth it. We recheck the cooler after a busy period if you tell us when it struggles, so the repair is tested under real load.

Constant door openings let warm air in faster than the cooler can recover. Clean gaskets and a clean condenser help it keep up. Wiping the gaskets each night helps.
Do sliding doors need special care?
Tracks collect glass bits and dirt. We clean the tracks and check the rollers. Tracks collect glass bits and dirt, which stops the rollers and breaks the seal. We clean the tracks, check the rollers and replace the door if needed.
Do you work on pre-HC coolers?
Yes. The older BB cabinets are still in service, and we repair them with a written price first. Older cabinets deserve an honest look. Many have years left in them.
