Island’s Pancake House

Completed walk-in exterior in kitchen.

Completed / Big Pine Key, Florida

Walk-in cooler replacement

Project start: August 9, 2026 · Completion and startup: August 22, 2026

CCS completed the demolition, relocation, replacement, and commissioning of the walk-in cooler serving Island’s Pancake House.

The challenge

Make the installation fit the facility.

Field layout identified a height conflict at the original cooler location. Installation paused before panels were modified, and an owner-approved kitchen location was selected for the replacement enclosure.

The scope

From demolition through commissioning.

Work included removal of the original equipment and enclosure; layout, leveling, continuous base support, and sealing; installation of the AmeriKooler enclosure, BOHN IntelliGen evaporator, and Heatcraft remote condenser; refrigeration piping; controls; and startup checks.

The result

Complete and operational.

The replacement system was commissioned on August 22, 2026. The project report recorded a 36.5°F box temperature during final checks and approximately 38°F at the door display after pull-down. A factory control connection fault identified during startup was corrected before closeout.
