Jakobs Kylservice performs installation, service, and repair of marine refrigeration systems in Marstrand and along the entire west coast. We work with leisure boats, sailing and motor yachts, fishing boats, and commercial vessels—regardless of size or type of system.
We are F-gas certified and meet all requirements for professional handling of refrigerants in marine environments. Marine refrigeration service in Marstrand places special demands on equipment and installation—saltwater, moisture, and vibrations require components and solutions adapted for the boating environment.
What we do:
- Installation of new refrigeration systems on boats
- Service and preventive maintenance
- Troubleshooting and diagnosis
- Repair and component replacement
- Refrigerant service according to the F-gas regulation
- Emergency call-outs in ports along the west coast
Service and repair of marine refrigeration units
Provision cooling and freezers on leisure boats are often sensitive systems that require proper service to function optimally. We service and repair all common brands of marine refrigerators—Dometic, Waeco, Isotherm, and Vitrifrigo—and can in most cases perform repairs directly in port without the boat needing to be lifted out of the water.
We have strong references from Marstrand and the Gothenburg archipelago and are accustomed to working in confined spaces on board under time pressure.
Refrigeration systems for vessels, offshore, and commercial marine operations
For commercial ships, fishing vessels, and offshore boats, we perform installation and service of larger refrigeration systems – cold rooms, freezer rooms, provision cooling, and air conditioning systems (HVAC). We work under demanding conditions and are accustomed to time pressure, limited accessibility, and documentation requirements according to the F-gas regulation. We offer service agreements adapted for commercial operation, as well as on-call and emergency dispatch in ports along the entire west coast.
Services for commercial marine operations:
- Cold rooms and freezer rooms on vessels
- Provision cooling for commercial operations
- Climate control systems and HVAC on vessels
- Service agreements for commercial marine operations
- On-call and emergency response in port
As a refrigeration technician in Gothenburg, we also work with commercial refrigeration systems for shops, restaurants, and properties.
Marine air conditioning and HVAC on vessels in Marstrand
Onboard air conditioning systems place entirely different demands than land-based systems – salt air, cramped installation, and continuous operation require the right equipment and expertise. We install, service, and repair marine air conditioning and HVAC systems on both leisure boats and commercial vessels. We work with all common makes and can in most cases perform the work directly in port.

Do you need marine refrigeration service?
Refrigeration on a boat is particularly sensitive—a breakdown during a sailing trip or before a long journey can cause significant problems. It is time to call us if:
- It is time for seasonal service before summer
- The fridge or freezer does not maintain the temperature
- The compressor is running but not cooling
- Unusual noises from the refrigeration system
- Condensation or moisture around the refrigeration unit
- The fridge runs constantly without turning off
