Technicians in Hazyview, Barberton and Sabie often collect parts on a town run, so ask whether a compressor or condensing unit is in stock before booking.

Mpumalanga: heat, power and cold chains
Mpumalanga is really two refrigeration markets. On the Highveld around eMalahleni, Secunda and Middelburg, fridges sit in mine and power station towns where coal dust settles on condenser coils and winter nights drop below freezing. Down the escarpment in the Lowveld, the heat and humidity of Mbombela, White River and Hazyview make compressors work hard most of the year. Citrus, macadamia and banana farms need packhouse cold rooms, lodges near the Kruger gates keep bar fridges in every chalet, and butcheries and supermarkets in the bigger towns run display chillers all day. The usual requests are for fridges that will not cool in summer, cold room service before harvest, and chest freezers for farm and lodge kitchens.
Typical condensing units requests in the area come from:
- Farms, packhouses and dairies: units for packhouse and dairy cold rooms that run through harvest
- Households: a small chiller unit for a home business baking or catering from the garage
- Landlords, guest houses and B&Bs: a condensing unit for a guest lodge's walk-in cold room
