When you’re in the business of growing, storing, and shipping fruits or vegetables, temperature control is critical. Alpine Refrigeration has supported produce farms and packers throughout Chilliwack, Abbotsford, and the Fraser Valley for decades, offering proven refrigeration systems designed to protect freshness, reduce losses, and meet market demands.
Harvested crops begin to deteriorate quickly if not cooled promptly and maintained at the right temperature. From berries and leafy greens to root vegetables, every product has unique storage requirements. Proper refrigeration slows respiration, retains moisture, and extends shelf life—helping you deliver high‑quality produce that meets buyer expectations.
Custom temperature and humidity control to preserve the quality of your fruits and vegetables.
For over 50 years, we have partnered with growers and packers in the region. We know the climate and what it takes to keep a harvest in top condition. Our technicians design systems that fit your layout, product mix, and operational demands.
We provide end-to-end support for all aspects of your produce refrigeration, including custom design, installation, preventive maintenance, 24/7 emergency service, and energy-saving upgrades to cut costs while maintaining quality.
Our region’s unique climate can create challenges with high humidity and sudden weather changes. Our systems are designed with these conditions in mind, ensuring your produce storage operates reliably year-round. We stay current with industry standards and regulations so you can focus on growing.
Proper refrigeration slows respiration, retains moisture, and extends shelf life. This helps you preserve quality, reduce shrinkage, improve food safety, and maintain consistent temperatures to deliver high-quality produce that meets buyer expectations.
We provide custom-sized refrigeration units and cold rooms designed to handle varying loads throughout your harvest season. From small walk-in coolers to large, multi-zone facilities, we build systems that protect your investment.
Scheduled inspections and tune-ups are key to preventing costly failures. Our maintenance plans are designed to keep your equipment running at peak efficiency, extending its lifespan and reducing the risk of unexpected breakdowns during critical harvest times.
A single day of downtime during harvest can mean a significant loss of product. Our on-call technicians are available 24/7 to provide urgent repairs, ensuring your produce is protected and your operation keeps moving.
Modern controls, high-efficiency compressors, and improved insulation can significantly cut energy bills while maintaining precise temperature control. We can assess your current system and recommend upgrades that offer the best return on investment.
Most facilities use walk-in coolers, cold storage rooms, or multi-zone systems designed to hold specific temperatures for different crops. Alpine Refrigeration custom-designs each system to match your facility and harvest schedule.
Produce continues to respire after harvest, generating heat that accelerates spoilage. Rapid cooling slows respiration, retaining freshness and extending shelf life.
Yes, with proper zoning and control technology. We design systems that allow multiple temperature and humidity settings within one facility to accommodate diverse crops.
Our team helps determine optimal ranges based on crop type, storage duration, and handling requirements. For example, berries need cooler temperatures than potatoes or onions.
Preventive maintenance twice per year is recommended—before peak harvest and before winter. Heavy-use facilities may benefit from quarterly check-ups.
Look for inconsistent temperatures, ice buildup, excessive moisture, or unusual sounds. Early intervention helps prevent product loss.
Yes. We provide 24/7 emergency service across Chilliwack, Abbotsford, and the Fraser Valley to minimize downtime and protect your harvest.
We incorporate proper airflow, dehumidification, and insulation measures to prevent condensation and mold while keeping produce in peak condition.
Absolutely. We upgrade controls, compressors, and insulation to improve energy efficiency and extend the life of your existing equipment.
Yes. High-efficiency motors and smart controls can significantly reduce power consumption, lowering operating costs throughout the year.
