A Local Company Built on Trust, Expertise & Hard Work

Acadia Refrigeration began in the 1970s and entered a new chapter when Darren and Andrea Best purchased the business in 1997. Their vision was simple: build a company known for quality workmanship, dependable service, and lasting customer relationships.

 

Over the years, we've grown into one of the Annapolis Valley's largest refrigeration contractors while staying true to our local roots. Our team continues to support projects of every size, combining decades of experience with today's refrigeration technologies to deliver reliable solutions across Atlantic Canada.

More Than a Contractor, A Project Partner

Every project is different, but our approach never changes. We take the time to understand your operation, recommend practical solutions, and deliver systems designed for long-term performance.

 

From initial planning and engineering to installation, maintenance, repairs, and emergency service, our team supports your project from start to finish.

 

Whether we're installing an ammonia refrigeration system for a seafood processor, building a custom chiller for a craft brewery, or improving comfort for a local business, our focus remains the same: quality work, honest advice, and dependable service.
