In controlled environments like greenhouses and processing facilities, temperature regulation is critical. Alpine Refrigeration provides tailored horticulture refrigeration systems that help growers in Chilliwack, Abbotsford, and the Fraser Valley maintain ideal conditions for plant health, productivity, and post-harvest freshness.
With decades of experience serving B.C.’s agricultural community, our team understands the unique challenges that horticultural producers face—whether you grow berries, cannabis, flowers, or vegetables. We design, install, and maintain reliable refrigeration and environmental control systems that meet your facility’s specific requirements, ensuring you stay in control of your growing environment every season.
Consistent Climate Control from Seeding to Shipping
Alpine Refrigeration has been trusted by the Fraser Valley’s agricultural producers for over 30 years. Our local service team offers 24/7 emergency response, scheduled maintenance, and custom service agreements. Our clients value our hands-on approach and reliable service.
We've worked directly with cannabis producers and specialty growers. These operations require advanced refrigeration with precise zoning, air flow, and humidity regulation. We support dry rooms, trim rooms, and HVAC integration to support your cultivation goals and regulatory requirements.
Energy use is a major operating cost. We help producers minimize energy waste through efficient system design, high-efficiency compressors, smart controls, and proper insulation. We help reduce unplanned downtime with preventive maintenance and emergency response service.
Our Chilliwack-based team responds faster and solves problems quickly. We offer 24/7 emergency response, scheduled maintenance, expert system upgrades, and clear communication—especially when working in active production environments.
Proper cold storage is essential for maintaining post-harvest quality. Alpine designs and installs custom walk-in coolers and cold storage rooms tailored to your specific crops, whether berries, flowers, or vegetables. We ensure rapid temperature pulldown and stable conditions to maximize shelf life.
For operations requiring water-cooled processes, such as hydroponics or certain processing lines, we design and install reliable chiller and glycol loop systems. These closed-loop systems provide consistent temperature control for your critical processes, improving efficiency and product consistency.
Excess humidity can compromise plant quality and encourage mould growth. We provide integrated dehumidification and humidity control solutions for grow rooms, dry rooms, and storage areas, helping you maintain the perfect environment for your crops.
The cold chain is only as strong as its weakest link. We provide cooling solutions for packhouses, processing lines, and shipping bays to ensure your product remains at the optimal temperature from harvest to transport.
Growers producing berries, flowers, leafy greens, cannabis, and other perishable crops rely on refrigeration for cold storage, processing areas, and transport staging to maintain product integrity and freshness.
Challenges often include inconsistent temperature zones, excess humidity, equipment breakdowns during peak load, and difficulty maintaining airflow in multi-crop environments.
We do both. Alpine Refrigeration offers custom installations for new construction and carefully planned retrofits for existing facilities to improve efficiency and performance.
Yes. We design integrated systems that manage temperature, humidity, and air exchange together—ideal for tightly controlled grow rooms or specialty crop environments.
Walk-in coolers help rapidly remove field heat, prevent spoilage, and extend post-harvest shelf life. We size and insulate these systems to match crop volume and turnaround speed.
Strawberries, blueberries, cannabis flowers, leafy greens, and cut flowers are all highly sensitive and can degrade quickly if kept outside optimal storage ranges.
Yes. We assess your current system and identify inefficiencies. Upgrades may include variable-speed fans, smart controls, or higher-efficiency compressors to reduce operating costs.
We do. We install cooling and dehumidification systems designed to maintain steady RH and temperature in trim, cure, and dry rooms, meeting Health Canada standards.
With proper maintenance, a quality system can last 15–20 years. Component upgrades or control system updates may be needed sooner to stay efficient and compliant.
Preventive maintenance is recommended 2–4 times per year, depending on system type and usage intensity. This ensures consistent performance and helps avoid mid-season breakdowns.
Yes. We understand the time-sensitive nature of agricultural operations. Our technicians are available around the clock to handle urgent breakdowns and system issues.
Smaller operations benefit from modular walk-in coolers, ductless split systems, and temperature-controlled storage rooms that scale with production without overcapitalizing.
Yes. We create zoned systems with independent temperature and humidity controls—ideal for operations growing multiple plant types under one roof.
There are often local or provincial rebate programs for energy-efficient equipment. We can assist with documentation and system selection to meet eligibility requirements.
Yes. We maintain a local inventory of parts for common makes and models. We also supply programmable thermostats, defrost timers, and digital controls to suit horticultural use.
Yes. Some propagation spaces require temperature moderation and humidity control to avoid stressing young plants. We tailor systems to suit these needs.
Key factors include total volume of product stored, desired storage temperature, room insulation values, door frequency, and peak harvest loads.
Proper airflow, humidity control, and regular coil cleanings are essential. We can install air circulation fans and RH monitoring to help mitigate this issue.
Timelines vary by scope, but most horticulture refrigeration installations are completed within 1–3 weeks. Retrofits in active facilities are scheduled to minimize disruption.
Absolutely. We regularly collaborate with general contractors, irrigation system providers, and greenhouse manufacturers to ensure our systems fit seamlessly into your overall operation.
Any time of day, any day of the year, Alpine Refrigeration is working for you.
