When your ice machine goes down in the Texas heat, you need a tech on-site today, not next week. Almcoe dispatches EPA-certified technicians across Dallas, Fort Worth, Plano, and the entire DFW metroplex for same day ice machine repair.
Response within 2 hours. Emergency calls dispatched immediately.
Since 1960, Texas businesses have called Almcoe when they need commercial refrigeration done right the first time.
We maintain stocked service vehicles throughout the metroplex with critical components already on board. Harvest curtains, inlet valves, thermistor assemblies, hot gas valves, compressor contactors. When a restaurant in Deep Ellum or a hotel in Las Colinas calls before noon, we can usually arrive that afternoon. During peak Texas summer when ambient temps hit 105°F and ice machines are maxed out, same day response prevents total loss of product and revenue.
Dallas Fort Worth municipal water averages 180 to 220 ppm hardness. Scale buildup chokes evaporator plates, clogs distribution tubes, and triggers float switch failures on Hoshizaki KM series and Manitowoc Indigo models. We carry descaling chemicals, replacement water inlet screens, and we test conductivity on every call. Most same day repairs in Bishop Arts, Sundance Square, or Legacy West involve scale-related component replacement combined with a flush protocol.
Every Almcoe technician holds current EPA Section 608 universal certification and TDLR commercial refrigeration licenses. We handle R-404A retrofits to R-448A and R-449A on older Scotsman and Ice-O-Matic cubers. When condenser coil blockage or refrigerant loss shuts down a machine at AT&T Stadium or a bar in Lower Greenville, you get a certified tech who carries refrigerant, leak detectors, and micron gauges on the truck for complete same day resolution.
“Compressor locked up at 9 AM Friday. Almcoe had a tech here by 1 PM with a replacement. Back making ice by dinner rush.”
“Our Hoshizaki stopped mid-cycle during a wedding. Same day repair saved the event. Tech diagnosed the harvest relay in twenty minutes.”
“Called at 11 AM for a Manitowoc leaking refrigerant. Tech arrived at 3 PM, found the leak, recovered and recharged. Done same day.”
If you call before 2 PM on a weekday, we dispatch a technician to arrive the same business day across Dallas, Fort Worth, Plano, Arlington, Irving, and Frisco. Emergency calls after hours get next available slot, often within four hours overnight. We stock common failure parts like compressor start components, water inlet valves, and thermistors to complete repairs on the first visit rather than schedule a return trip.
Response time depends on current call volume and your location. Typical same day arrivals range from two to five hours after dispatch. High density areas like Uptown Dallas, Sundance Square, Legacy West, and the Stockyards usually see faster arrival because our trucks cover those zones daily. We provide an estimated arrival window when you call and update you if the tech is running ahead or behind schedule.
Standard same day service calls start at $195 diagnostic fee, applied toward repair if you proceed. Common repairs like replacing a water pump or contactor run $350 to $650 total including parts and labor. Compressor replacement ranges $900 to $1,800 depending on tonnage and refrigerant type. We quote the repair cost before starting work. After hours emergency surcharges add $125 to the base rate.
We repair all commercial ice machine manufacturers same day: Hoshizaki KM, F, and AM series, Manitowoc Indigo and NEO models, Scotsman Prodigy and Meridian, Ice-O-Matic Elevation and Pearl, Follett, Kold-Draft, and Cornelius. Our trucks stock cross-compatible components for the most common models in DFW restaurants, hotels, and healthcare facilities. We also service under-counter cube machines and large modular flakers.
Yes. We dispatch same day throughout Dallas, Fort Worth, Arlington, Plano, Irving, Frisco, McKinney, Richardson, Carrollton, Lewisville, Grapevine, Garland, Mesquite, Grand Prairie, and surrounding cities. Our primary service area is the core metroplex, but we also cover outlying areas in Collin, Tarrant, Denton, and Rockwall counties. Call (214) 949-8674 to confirm same day availability for your specific ZIP code.
Call (214) 949-8674 immediately and request same day dispatch. Turn off the machine to prevent compressor damage if you hear grinding or see water pooling. Note any error codes on the display panel. If the machine is still running but producing hollow or incomplete cubes, that indicates low refrigerant or scale buildup and justifies a same day call. The sooner you reach us, the better your odds of same afternoon repair, especially during summer peak season.
