Draft Beer Line Cleaning and Draft System Service in Chicago
Chicago runs on every kind of draft system: a short direct-draw cooler behind a corner tavern, a basement walk-in feeding a long-draw trunk line up to the bar, a beer hall with a long wall of taps that goes from quiet to packed in an hour. Each one needs regular cleaning and the occasional repair to keep pouring the way it should.
We work on commercial draft systems throughout the city. That covers line cleaning on a set schedule, tracking down why a system has started pouring foam, replacing worn faucets and couplers, servicing the glycol chillers behind long-draw setups, and installing or rebuilding systems for new and remodeled spaces.
City buildings bring their own challenges: tight basements, long runs between the cooler and the bar, and older lines that have been patched over the years. We plan the work around your service hours.

Common questions
Do you cover every Chicago neighborhood?
The neighborhoods listed above are examples, not a complete list. If your bar, restaurant or venue is inside city limits, get in touch and include your neighborhood in the form.
Can you work on long-draw systems in older buildings?
Yes. Long-draw systems with glycol-cooled trunk lines are common in city bars, especially where the walk-in sits in the basement or at the far end of the building. We clean, repair and rebalance these systems and service the chillers that keep them cold. Illinois also allows a longer cleaning interval for some glycol and other buildup-limiting systems, provided they are checked weekly. How the Illinois rule works.
How is draft service priced?
Pricing is custom. It depends on the number of taps, the type of system, and the service schedule or contract length. Tell us about your setup in the form below.
