Worcester notes on cold rooms & commercial
Refrigeration contractors in Worcester spend the harvest on call for packhouses and cold stores in the Hex River Valley and around Rawsonville, where precooling tunnels and cold rooms must hold export grapes at the right temperature. Cellars along the Breede River need tank cooling and chillers checked before the crush. Ask for a maintenance contract that includes after-hours call-outs from December to April, and for written temperature records.
What keeps Worcester cold
Worcester is the centre of the Breede River Valley, one of the country's big table grape and wine areas, and its summers are fierce. From the Hex River Valley at De Doorns down to Rawsonville, packhouses and cold stores precool export grapes, and cellars cool fermenting tanks through the harvest. Town homes in Avian Park, Zwelethemba and the older suburbs face afternoons that can top 40 °C, which pushes kitchen fridges and garage freezers past their limit. Butcheries, farm shops along the N1 and seasonal worker housing add steady repair work. Packhouses, wine cellars, farm owners, households and shop owners ask for refrigeration repairs, cold room servicing and condensing units most.
The requests we see from Worcester usually come from:
- Farms, packhouses and dairies: insulated produce stores, packhouse rooms and abattoir chillers
- Factories and cold stores: large cold stores, insulated warehouses and clean rooms in food factories
- Households: a small insulated room in a garage for game meat or home catering stock
