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 business hours, and neither do we.
Headquartered in Sarasota and serving Collier County, Hillsborough County, Lee County, Manatee County, Pinellas County, Sarasota County and surrounding areas, Putnam Mechanical staffs a 24/7 emergency dispatch line for commercial HVAC and refrigeration failures across Florida's Gulf Coast. When you call, you are not leaving a message for a callback the next morning. You are getting a technician dispatched with the diagnostic tools and commonly needed parts to resolve the failure on the first visit whenever possible. For businesses where downtime carries a real cost, such as spoiled inventory, lost revenue, a health-code violation, or an unsafe indoor environment, that response speed can be the difference between a difficult afternoon and a closed business.
Not every HVAC or refrigeration issue requires a 2am call, but these situations do:
If you're not sure whether your situation qualifies, call Putnam Mechanical in Sarasota anyway. Our 24/7 dispatch team serves Collier, Hillsborough, Lee, Manatee, Pinellas, Sarasota Counties and surrounding areas and can help you assess urgency over the phone.
Our Sarasota-based dispatch line is staffed around the clock and is not routed to voicemail after hours. When you call, we gather the essentials, including what is failing, how long it has been down, and what is at risk (inventory, occupancy, safety), and then dispatch a commercial HVAC and refrigeration expert accordingly throughout Collier, Hillsborough, Lee, Manatee, Pinellas, Sarasota Counties and surrounding areas. Our service vehicles carry commonly needed parts for both HVAC and refrigeration equipment, so the goal on every emergency call is full resolution on the first visit, not a temporary fix followed by a second appointment.
A home with a broken AC unit is uncomfortable. A restaurant with a broken walk-in cooler has hours, not days, before inventory becomes a food-safety liability. A medical office with failed HVAC may not be able to safely keep patients on site. A retail store with no cooling on a Florida summer day loses customers by the hour. Commercial emergency response has to account for what is actually at stake beyond comfort, which is why Putnam Mechanical’s emergency technicians are trained to assess both the equipment failure and its business impact when prioritizing dispatch for clients across Collier, Hillsborough, Lee, Manatee, Pinellas, Sarasota Counties and surrounding communities.

When refrigeration, HVAC, or ventilation equipment fails, the clock starts immediately. A walk-in cooler losing temperature, a freezer alarm going off, an ice machine failure, a rooftop unit shutting down, or a ventilation issue affecting airflow and building pressure can quickly impact inventory, comfort, safety, and revenue.
Putnam Mechanical provides 24-hour emergency commercial refrigeration, HVAC, and ventilation service with fast dispatch, on-site diagnostics, and clear repair recommendations.
Experiencing equipment failure right now? Call for priority dispatch.
The emergency dispatch line is staffed around the clock. Calls are answered, not routed to voicemail, regardless of the hour.
Response time depends on your location and current emergency call volume, but emergency calls are dispatched ahead of routine scheduling and prioritized based on what's at risk.
Keep the door closed as much as possible to slow temperature rise, and avoid adding new inventory until the unit is repaired. If food has already been above a safe temperature for an extended period, follow standard food-safety guidance on what to discard.
Emergency and after-hours dispatch typically carries a different rate than scheduled daytime service, which we'll confirm with you before dispatching, not after the fact.
Yes. Our technicians and service vehicles are equipped for both, which matters most for restaurants and food-service businesses where both systems are critical.
From emergency walk-in cooler repair and refrigerant leak detection to rooftop unit service, compressor replacement, ductwork correction, ventilation support, preventative maintenance, and full system upgrades, our licensed Florida technicians are ready to respond.
