What St. Augustine's climate means for your Hoshizaki appliances
Heat and humidity are the real test of any Hoshizaki lineup in St. Augustine, far more than the spec sheet lets on. The coastal air's salt content works on condenser coils and exposed metal, and summer heat alone makes the compressor run longer cycles to keep up. We factor that in on every St. Augustine call — checking the parts this climate wears first, not just the obvious fault.
