Install, service, repair and deep-clean — Costa Mechanical keeps the ice flowing for restaurants, bars, hotels and healthcare facilities across Lee, Collier and Charlotte counties.
When the ice machine goes down, your business doesn't just slow — it stops. Drinks back up at the bar, the kitchen scrambles for bagged ice, and a hot Florida afternoon turns a minor breakdown into lost covers and unhappy guests. Costa Mechanical & Refrigeration installs, services, repairs and sanitizes commercial ice machines across Southwest Florida so that never becomes your problem.
We're a family-owned, veteran-operated company, and we treat your ice machine like the revenue tool it is. Whether you run a single undercounter unit behind the bar or a full production head feeding a dispenser, we show up fast, diagnose the real issue, and give you up-front pricing before any work starts.
A dead ice machine hits different businesses in different ways, but it always hurts. We keep ice flowing for:
Ice is food, and the health inspector treats it that way. Southwest Florida's hard water leaves limescale and mineral buildup on evaporator plates, water lines and bins, while warm, damp environments invite slime, mold and bacteria. Left alone, that scale chokes production, drives up energy use, and can shut you down at inspection time. Our preventive cleaning service breaks the machine down, descales the working surfaces, sanitizes every contact point, and gets your unit back to making clean, clear ice at full output — keeping you compliant and your customers safe.
Most ice machine failures in this region trace back to water. Proper filtration removes the minerals and sediment that cause scale, cloudy ice and premature part wear — so we'll set up or upgrade your filtration as part of the job. When something does break, we repair water valves and pumps, sensors and control boards, evaporators, compressors and refrigerant issues across all the major brands. If a unit is past saving, we'll tell you straight and help you choose a right-sized replacement.
Most of our ice machine clients also rely on us for their walk-ins, reach-ins and prep tables. Bundling your commercial refrigeration service means one trusted company for everything cold in your building — and one fast number to call. Many of those same kitchens lean on us for AC repair to keep the dining room comfortable, too.
Most manufacturers and health codes call for a deep clean and sanitize at least every six months, and many high-volume kitchens in Southwest Florida need it quarterly. Our humid, mineral-heavy water builds scale fast, so a regular cleaning schedule protects both your ice quality and your inspection score.
We diagnose the unit first, then give you honest numbers. A failing compressor or water pump on an older machine often points toward replacement, while sensor, valve and scale issues are usually a straightforward repair. You approve the price before we start, and financing through Okinus is available on new equipment.
Yes. We service and repair the major commercial ice machine brands — including Hoshizaki, Manitowoc, Scotsman and Ice-O-Matic — whether the unit is undercounter, modular, or a full production head with a separate bin or dispenser.
We do. We help you size the right machine for your volume, set up proper water filtration and drainage, and install it to code. We also handle bins, dispensers and water lines so the whole setup runs clean from day one.
