The crew behind Commercial Air & Refrigeration
Fifteen years of licensed refrigeration and HVAC work across LA County, built one service call at a time.
One van, one technician
Derek Zobrist starts Commercial Air and Refrigeration out of Monterey Park with a single service van, focused on independent restaurants that a bigger contractor wouldn't prioritize.
EPA certification & full HVAC service
The crew grows to include EPA Section 608-certified refrigerant technicians and expands from refrigeration-only into full commercial HVAC repair.
Faster response across LA County
A second dispatch base cuts average response time to under two hours for most of the San Gabriel Valley and greater LA County service area.
2,400 service calls and counting
We add a dedicated 24/7 emergency line, because a warm walk-in on a Saturday night can't wait for Monday.
