Complete Refrigeration &
HVAC Services
From a single diagnostic call to a full-service maintenance program — every aspect of your system, covered.
Refrigeration Built for
Life on the Water
Surf and Turf Refrigeration is not a generalist contractor with a marine division. Marine refrigeration is a core specialty. Salt air, tight spaces, high thermal loads, and equipment that must survive passage — we understand these environments in ways most providers simply don't.
Built for Salt Air
Corrosion-resistant installations engineered for the marine environment. Every component selected for long-term reliability on salt water.
Tight Spaces, High Loads
Marine refrigeration demands precision in constrained bilge spaces. We optimize every install for performance, serviceability, and longevity.
Systems That Cannot Fail
When you're offshore, equipment failure is not an option. Our diagnostics and maintenance protocols are built around zero-tolerance reliability.
- Sailboats & Racing Vessels
- Power Yachts & Motor Boats
- Commercial Fishing Vessels
- Live-Aboard Boats
- Dockside & Marina Facilities
- Coastal Properties & Homes
Serving the Bay Area, Marin County, and coastal clients throughout Northern California.
