Randfontein: heat, power and cold chains
Randfontein grew up around gold, and the old mine dumps still shape daily life. Fine pale dust blows off them in the dry, windy months and settles on the condenser coils of fridges standing in kitchens, garages and back rooms, so many cooling faults start as a clogged coil and a hot compressor. Homes range from older mine houses in Randgate to family homes in Greenhills and brick houses in Mohlakeng and Toekomsrus, where spaza shops and taverns keep display fridges and chest freezers running long hours. Frosty winters are easy on fridges, but summer heat and storms are not. Families, small shop owners, butchers and smallholders on the edge of town ask for repairs, regassing and second fridges most.
