Refrigeration is the service that sets A+ Air apart, and it is why we are ranked #1 in Gainesville for commercial refrigeration. Most HVAC contractors stop at heating and cooling, but we built out refrigeration on purpose for the restaurants, grocers, and facilities that depend on it. We service and repair walk-in coolers and freezers, reach-in refrigerators, refrigerated display and deli cases, prep and sandwich tables, ice machines, and blast chillers, and we do it with EPA Section 608 certified technicians who diagnose the real fault instead of just topping off refrigerant.
When a box drifts out of safe temperature, your product and your health-code compliance are on the line, so we prioritize refrigeration calls with same-day and priority commercial response. Explore our full commercial refrigeration service for repair, maintenance, and installation, or go straight to walk-in cooler repair when a cooler or freezer is warming up.

Rooftop Units, Boilers & Chillers
Rooftop Units
Packaged rooftop units (RTUs) do the heavy lifting for most Gainesville retail spaces, offices, restaurants, and warehouses, combining cooling, heating, and ventilation in one cabinet exposed to the full Florida sun. That exposure is hard on compressors, economizers, belts, and controls, which is why RTUs need regular service to hold efficiency. Our technicians repair and maintain single and multi-unit rooftop systems of every major brand, handling compressor and refrigerant faults, economizer and damper problems, ignition and heat-exchanger issues, belt and motor wear, and rooftop controls. Learn more about our commercial rooftop unit service.
Boilers
Commercial boilers heat many of Gainesville's older buildings, multi-family properties, and facilities, and a boiler problem in the cooler months can shut down an entire operation. A+ Air installs, repairs, and maintains commercial boilers along with their controls, pumps, and distribution, servicing all major brands and system types. Our technicians handle no-heat calls, ignition and burner faults, low-pressure and circulation problems, leaks, and safety-control failures, and we set up preventive service so small issues are caught before they become a cold building. See our commercial boiler service for full details.
Chillers
Chilled-water systems cool Gainesville's larger commercial buildings, medical facilities, and institutional properties, and a chiller failure affects everyone inside. A+ Air services air-cooled and water-cooled commercial chillers, covering compressor and refrigerant faults, condenser and evaporator performance, pump and flow issues, and control and safety problems. Because a chiller is central to the whole building's comfort, we pair fast diagnostics with preventive maintenance agreements that keep the system running through peak load. Learn more about our commercial chiller service.
Commercial Maintenance Agreements
The cheapest commercial HVAC repair is the one you never have to make. Equipment running in Florida's heat and humidity loses efficiency every month without service and eventually fails at the worst possible time. A commercial maintenance agreement with A+ Air puts your rooftop units, boilers, chillers, and refrigeration on a scheduled service calendar built around your equipment list, hours of operation, and budget.
Scheduled visits cover coil cleaning, refrigerant and charge verification, electrical and control checks, safety testing, and documentation you can use for budgeting and compliance. Agreement customers also move to the front of our scheduling queue when something does go wrong. See our maintenance plans to put your facility on a protection schedule.
