What Greater Heights does
to a commercial appliance.

Industrial businesses moved into the Houston Heights after World War II.

Restaurants in the Heights' dry zone got around its 1912 alcohol ordinance by operating as private clubs, until votes in 2016 and 2017 dissolved the ban.

The Heights sits 23 feet higher than Houston, an appeal to early residents while the city was fighting yellow fever and waterborne illness from frequent flooding.

All of Houston

Older housing stock

Older buildings often put the kitchen in a cellar with an old floor drain, and a dish machine or a walk-in condensate line that backs up there is traced through piping laid generations ago before the machine itself is opened.

Cramped lines and basement kitchens

In a small kitchen a reach-in, a prep table and a fryer often stand shoulder to shoulder, and a cold cabinet boxed in by its neighbors recycles its own hot exhaust until it warms, so clearances and clean coils come first on a visit.

Mixed housing

Older buildings in mixed neighborhoods may share drains, gas and power between an old restaurant and a newer laundromat, and a problem at one can surface at the other, so a technician traces the shared lines first.

When a commercial appliance
cannot wait in Greater Heights.

In Greater Heights as anywhere, these five put the crew, the guests or the product in the building at risk, and they mean the unit stays off, or the food moves, until we arrive: a gas smell on the cooking line, a fryer or grease fire, a walk-in or reach-in above 41°F with food inside, water on the floor near cords or a panel, and a hot electrical or burning smell.
