Control board or sensor failure

Why Boh

Why a network beats a single vendor for emergency repair

Specialists

Specialists, not generalists

Vendors in our network focus on a single equipment type. They’re faster, more thorough, and carry the right parts for your specific make and model.

Coverage

More technicians, more availability

A network of specialists covers more neighborhoods and more service windows than any single in-house team. That means faster response when something breaks at 7am or 9pm.

Documented

Every job is documented and reviewed

Before and after photos, service reports, and parts records are required on every visit. Vendors know each job is tracked. That visibility keeps quality high.

Accountable

Underperformance has consequences

If a technician misses a slot, cuts corners, or mis-bills, they’re removed from the network. Boh holds them accountable so you don’t have to.

Prevention

This is preventable with restaurant ice machine cleaning

Ice machines are one of the most overlooked sources of foodborne illness in commercial kitchens. Slime mold, biofilm, and scale buildup can contaminate ice served to guests. Regular cleaning and descaling is both a safety and compliance requirement.
