Replace Worn or Failed Kitchen Equipment

Equipment Replacement Services for Food Trucks in Georgetown

When your flat top stops heating evenly, your fryer cycles erratically, or your refrigeration unit can't hold temperature through a Georgetown summer afternoon, replacement becomes the practical choice over repeated repairs. Food truck equipment works harder than restaurant gear because of constant vibration, power fluctuations at different event sites, and exposure to road conditions that accelerate wear. ATX Food Truck Builder replaces failed or outdated equipment with units built for mobile use and sized to fit your existing layout and power supply.

This service covers removal of old equipment, installation of replacement cooking appliances, refrigeration units, ventilation hoods, and prep equipment, along with reconnection of gas lines, electrical circuits, and exhaust ductwork. Work includes mounting hardware rated for road travel, verifying clearances meet fire safety codes, and testing all connections under operating conditions before the truck returns to service.

How Equipment Gets Removed and Installed

Replacement work begins by disconnecting gas, electrical, and ventilation connections, then removing mounting bolts and lifting out the old unit without damaging surrounding walls or counters. In Georgetown, most replacements involve installing a new fryer, griddle, or reach-in cooler into the same footprint, reconnecting supply lines, and securing the unit with vibration-resistant fasteners designed for mobile kitchens.

You will notice consistent heating or cooling performance, appliances that ignite reliably at different event sites, and equipment that stays mounted securely through daily road travel. New units often draw less power and require fewer service calls than older models that have been repaired multiple times.

Equipment replacement does not include structural modifications to expand space or upgrades to electrical panels unless those changes are part of the project scope. If your current power supply cannot support the new unit, panel upgrades or generator changes may be needed. Installation is scheduled to minimize downtime, and most single-appliance replacements finish within one to two days depending on complexity and whether custom mounting is required.

Choosing the Right Equipment Raises Practical Questions

Before replacing equipment, food truck owners in Georgetown typically want to know whether a new unit will fit the existing space, how power requirements compare, and what installation involves.

What equipment fails most often in food trucks?

Refrigeration compressors, ignition systems in fryers and ranges, and heating elements in griddles fail most frequently due to road vibration and power cycling at different hookup sites. These components wear faster in mobile kitchens than stationary restaurants.


How do you determine what size equipment fits?

We measure the existing cutout and clearance space, check ventilation hood placement, and confirm the new unit matches your electrical or gas supply. Equipment must meet NSF spacing requirements and allow safe access for cleaning.


When should you replace equipment instead of repairing it?

If repair costs approach half the replacement cost, the unit has failed multiple times, or parts are no longer available, replacement is usually more reliable. Older equipment also uses more energy and may not meet current health codes.


What happens to the old equipment after removal?

You can keep it for parts or resale, or we can haul it away as part of the service. Some owners donate working units to culinary programs or sell them to other food truck operators in Georgetown.


How long does a new appliance last in a food truck?

Commercial mobile equipment typically lasts five to ten years depending on usage intensity, maintenance, and road conditions. Units secured properly and serviced regularly reach the longer end of that range.

ATX Food Truck Builder replaces cooking, refrigeration, and prep equipment in Georgetown food trucks with attention to fit, code compliance, and road durability. If your equipment is failing or can't keep up with demand, reach out to discuss replacement options and schedule installation.
