One Missed Temperature Check Can Shut You Down. Don’t Let That Happen.
In Florida’s high-heat, high-humidity climate, health inspections aren’t just routine — they’re a survival test for restaurants, hotels, supermarkets, and any business that stores perishable food.
A single refrigeration issue can turn into:
- 💸 Costly fines
- ❌ Food disposal orders
- 🚫 Temporary shutdowns
- 📉 Damage to your license or public reputation
At Tico’s Refrigeration and AC, we help businesses across Broward, Palm Beach, and Martin Counties stay one step ahead of inspectors with proactive maintenance that keeps you 100% compliant.
🧊 Why Refrigeration is a Top Violation Trigger in Florida
Health inspectors don’t forgive temperature errors. And they shouldn’t — one malfunction can lead to dangerous food conditions.
Here’s what they look for — and where most businesses fail:
- Food held above 41°F
- Broken thermostats or sensors
- Worn or broken door seals letting warm air in
- Dirty condenser coils blocking cooling
- Ice buildup or standing water
- Missing or inaccurate temperature logs
These aren’t system failures — they’re maintenance failures.
🚫 The Hidden Cost of Non-Compliance
Think it won’t happen to you? Consider this:
- Fines can exceed $1,000+ per inspection
- Spoiled inventory can wipe out daily profits
- Shutdowns during peak hours = instant revenue loss
- Public inspection reports live online forever
- Customer trust is hard to earn back after a bad headline
🧠 Prevention isn’t an expense — it’s business protection.
