What to know locally in Paarl
Refrigeration contractors around Paarl spend late winter and spring servicing cold rooms, forced air coolers and condensing units at packhouses near Groot Drakenstein, Simondium and Wellington, before grapes and stone fruit come in. Wine cellars along the Berg River need chillers and tank cooling checked before the crush. For the peak, many farms add mobile cold rooms. Ask for a maintenance plan and a contact number that works during harvest weekends.
What keeps Paarl cold
Paarl sits in a hot valley along the Berg River, ringed by vineyards and fruit farms, and refrigeration here follows the harvest. From January the packhouses and cold stores around Groot Drakenstein, Simondium and Wellington fill with table grapes and stone fruit that need fast cooling, and wine cellars run glycol chillers and tank cooling through the crush. In town, homes in Dal Josafat, Mbekweni and the older streets off Main Road cope with summer days that are much hotter than in Cape Town, which is hard on fridges in closed garages and outside kitchens. Fruit farms, cellars, guest houses, butcheries and households ask for repairs, cold room work and condensing units most.
The requests we see from Paarl usually come from:
- Farms, packhouses and dairies: insulated produce stores, packhouse rooms and abattoir chillers
- Households: a small insulated room in a garage for game meat or home catering stock
- Factories and cold stores: large cold stores, insulated warehouses and clean rooms in food factories
