Putnam Mechanical, headquartered in Sarasota, Florida, helps businesses across Collier County, Hillsborough County, Lee County, Manatee County, Pinellas County, Sarasota County, and surrounding areas maintain reliable cooling, safe food storage, balanced airflow, proper ventilation, and efficient equipment performance. Explore our commercial refrigeration, HVAC, and ventilation services below.

Schedule Service

Walk-In Cooler & Freezer Repair

A walk-in cooler or freezer failure puts a clock on everything inside it. Unlike most equipment failures, this one has a direct food safety deadline attached, and it often happens overnight or over a weekend, when the problem is not discovered until someone opens the door the next morning

Learn more

Refrigeration System Installation & Design

A poorly designed refrigeration system struggles with temperature stability from the day it is installed, not because the equipment is bad, but because it was never sized correctly for the space, the product load, or the way the business actually operates. Whether you are opening a new res

Refrigeration Equipment

Commercial refrigeration equipment operates around the clock, and unlike a rooftop unit failing on a warm afternoon, a failed reach-in cooler or display case puts inventory at risk the moment it stops holding temperature. Restaurants, grocery and convenience stores, and food-service operat

Commercial HVAC Repair

When a rooftop unit fails on a Florida afternoon, there’s usually little warning, one moment it’s cooling, the next it’s short-cycling, tripping breakers, or pushing warm air into a building full of customers or employees. Commercial HVAC repair has to happen quickly, but speed witho

Learn more

Ductwork Repairs

Ductwork often goes unnoticed until there is a visible problem, yet leaking or damaged ducts are one of the most common reasons a commercial HVAC system runs constantly without ever fully cooling the building. Air that should be reaching a sales floor, kitchen, or office space can instead

Building Balance

A commercial HVAC system can be operating correctly and a building can still feel uncomfortable, one tenant space ten degrees colder than the one next to it, a lobby that never cools down, or a kitchen that will not maintain negative pressure against the dining room. This is rarely an equi

Compressor Repair & Replacement

The compressor is one of the most critical components in commercial refrigeration and HVAC systems. When it fails, a walk-in cooler can lose temperature, a freezer may no longer keep product at safe levels, a rooftop unit can stop cooling, and a commercial space may quickly become uncomfor

BMS & Commercial HVAC Monitoring Systems

Commercial refrigeration and HVAC issues often begin long before equipment completely fails. A walk-in cooler may slowly creep above its safe temperature range. A freezer may run longer than normal. A rooftop unit may struggle to satisfy a zone. A sensor may report abnormal readings after

Emergency Refrigeration Service (24/7)

Some HVAC and refrigeration issues can wait for a scheduled appointment. Others cannot. A walk-in cooler losing temperature overnight, a rooftop unit failing on a hundred-degree afternoon with customers in the building, or a freezer alarm going off on a Sunday will not wait for normal busi

Food Safety / Temperature Compliance Services

A health inspector will not accept “it was probably fine” as an answer, and neither should you. Temperature compliance for refrigerated and frozen food storage is not a once-a-year concern, it is a daily operational requirement that depends entirely on refrigeration equipment performin

Preventative Maintenance

Most commercial refrigeration and HVAC failures rarely occur without warning. A weak capacitor, loose electrical connection, dirty condenser coil, restricted airflow, failing fan motor, clogged drain line, or changing system pressure can often be detected before it becomes an emergency. Pu

Commercial Refrigeration & HVAC

Commercial refrigeration and HVAC equipment operates under constant strain in Florida’s heat, humidity, and extended cooling season. A failed walk-in cooler, freezer, rooftop unit, ice machine, or commercial AC system can quickly impact inventory, comfort, food safety, staff productivity

Energy Efficiency Upgrades

Commercial HVAC equipment is one of the largest line items on a Florida business's utility bill, and it is also one of the few that can be meaningfully reduced without sacrificing comfort. Systems that run nearly nonstop through a long cooling season offer significant opportunities for eff

HVAC Repair

Most commercial properties do not rely on just one type of HVAC or refrigeration system. A single building might have rooftop units serving the main floor, a ductless mini-split cooling a server room, a walk-in cooler supporting kitchen operations, and a multi-zone system conditioning a re

HVAC Replacements & Additions

At some point, every commercial HVAC system reaches a stage where continued repair is no longer cost effective. It might be an aging rooftop unit that has already needed multiple repairs this year, or a building expansion or renovation that has outgrown what the existing system can support

Ice Machine Maintenance

A commercial ice machine is one of the most overlooked pieces of equipment in a restaurant, bar, or convenience store until it stops making ice during a busy shift, or until mold and mineral buildup inside it become a health code issue that no one notices until an inspection. Ice machines

Refrigerant Leak Detection & Repair

If a commercial HVAC system is running but not cooling as effectively as it used to, low refrigerant from an undetected leak is one of the most common causes. Refrigerant does not get used up like fuel. In a properly sealed system, the charge should remain stable for the entire service lif

Ventilation Services

Commercial ventilation affects far more than comfort. Poor ventilation can lead to humidity problems, uneven temperatures, stale air, odor transfer, kitchen pressure issues, weak exhaust performance, and added strain on HVAC and refrigeration equipment. Headquartered in Sarasota, Putnam Me
