Cold rooms & commercial in KwaZulu-Natal: local notes
Cold rooms and commercial refrigeration in KwaZulu-Natal range from the harbour cold stores in Durban and Richards Bay to dairies around Mooi River and Nottingham Road and poultry farms near Camperdown. Restaurants in Umhlanga, butcheries in Pietermaritzburg and supermarkets in Empangeni all need fast help when a chiller fails. On the coast, ask for coil coatings and stainless or coated fittings on condensing units that face the sea.
What keeps KwaZulu-Natal cold
KwaZulu-Natal runs from the humid, salty coast to the cold Midlands and the dry north. On the coast from Port Shepstone through Durban and Umhlanga to Ballito, humidity makes door seals sweat and salt air eats at condenser coils and fins. The harbours at Durban and Richards Bay move chilled and frozen cargo through cold stores, the Midlands is dairy country, and sugar cane and timber cover the coastal hills. Inland, Newcastle and Ladysmith have hot summers and frosty winters. Holiday flats, guest houses and townhouse complexes keep landlords calling, and townships from Umlazi to Madadeni rely on spaza shops with glass door coolers. Coil corrosion, regassing and cold room repairs are asked for most.
The requests we see from KwaZulu-Natal usually come from:
- Households: a glass-door drinks fridge for an entertainment area or a home tuck shop
- Landlords, guest houses and B&Bs: a bar fridge with a glass door for a guest lounge or lodge bar
- Shops, cafes and supermarkets: single and double door coolers for spaza shops, cafes and bottle stores
