Texas summers punish walk-in condensers. The single highest-ROI move is quarterly coil cleaning. A choked condenser makes the compressor work harder, which shortens its life dramatically.

Second: check door gaskets and closers. A walk-in that doesn't seal is bleeding cash every hour it's open.

Third: monitor discharge temps. If your walk-in is running warmer than usual on hot days, that's the earliest warning that something is off — and the cheapest time to catch it.
