George notes on fridge & appliance repairs
Holiday home fridges in Wilderness, Herold's Bay and Victoria Bay often stand switched off for months, then are expected to cool a full load over December. Seals go mouldy and stick, and coils near the sea corrode. Ask a technician from George or Blanco to check fridges in November. In Thembalethu and Pacaltsdorp, chest freezers and fridges damaged by power cuts are common calls. Keep the door shut during an outage.
What keeps George cold
George is the main service town of the Garden Route, so its refrigeration technicians cover a long stretch of coast and farmland. Dairy farms on the coastal plain run milk cooling tanks every day, and hop and vegetable farms around the Outeniqua foothills need cold rooms after picking. Holiday homes and guest houses in Wilderness, Herold's Bay and Victoria Bay fill up over December, when every fridge and freezer runs flat out at once. The climate is mild and humid, with rain in every season, so door seals grow mould and condensation drips in kitchens near the sea. Dairy farmers, guest house owners, holiday letting agents and households ask for repairs and services most.
Typical freezer repairs requests in the area come from:
- Households: a garage chest freezer full of meat bought in bulk that has stopped freezing
- Landlords, guest houses and B&Bs: a guest house upright freezer that ices up between cleaning days
- Farms, packhouses and dairies: a farm freezer storing game meat and produce far from the nearest town
