Coast-to-Coast Service, Made Possible Through Partnership

At Preston Refrigeration, we pride ourselves on bringing precision, quality, and consistency to every project - no matter the location. A recent collaboration proved just how powerful that commitment can be when backed by Certified Industrial Partners.

Our Partner through the CIP network, North American Refrigeration, has a long-standing relationship with a company owner that has a location in Illinois. They were looking for a reliable industrial refrigeration solution that extended far beyond North American Refrigeration’s local zip code. North American Refrigeration’s General Manager knew that in the Midwest, where this project was located, Preston Refrigeration could meet and exceed the high standard of service that this contact would expect from a North American Refrigeration referral.

Preston Refrigeration was entrusted with the project management, demo of outdated ammonia equipment, retrofit and installation of new machinery, coordinating with subcontractors, pump outs and tie-ins, and startup/commissioning of the project. With decades of experience in industrial refrigeration, they were able to bring the customer’s system up to date, making it more efficient than ever, and shrinking the system downtime to zero.  

When the customer mentioned their need for a compact engine room upgrade, our network stepped in again. Highland Refrigeration is a specialist in custom compressor skids, located in Seattle. They picked up the torch with their deep engineering expertise, allowing the project to move forward with a unique solution. They designed and engineered a custom, multi-screw package to save space and energy. This system is contained in just two 40HQ containerized systems that can be stacked, all while increasing cooling capabilities to 456 Tons of Refrigeration at –20 degrees Fahrenheit.

When it came to compliance expertise, this same customer was supported by CIP’s team, with PSM and PHA. These systems were developed to identify potential risks specific to the client and create plans to protect workers and equipment for long-term operational success.

This is the power of working with a strong network of trusted partners. Our team at Preston is proud to contribute not just technical know-how, but the assurance of being a trusted partner in a national industrial service network.
