Delayed repairs can result in costly downtime, lost revenue, and disruptions to daily operations.
- Limited Coverage & Unexpected Costs: Most commercial refrigeration and catering equipment manufacturer warranties come with exclusions that may not cover labour for parts replacement or routine maintenance.
