Fridges and refrigeration in Pietermaritzburg
Pietermaritzburg sits in a bowl in the Midlands, so summers in the city can be hot and muggy while winter nights bring frost, especially in Hilton and Howick above it. It is the provincial capital, with hospitals, schools, government offices and the university, all of which need kitchen and clinic refrigeration. The surrounding dairy belt around Howick, Mooi River and Nottingham Road keeps milk cooling tanks and cold rooms busy, and poultry farms near Camperdown need chilling and freezing. Edendale and Imbali have many spaza shops and taverns, and Scottsville has student digs. Requests swing between regassing a kitchen fridge in town and keeping a farm cold room steady through milking season.
Typical fridge repairs requests in the area come from:
- Farms, packhouses and dairies: cold rooms, packhouse refrigeration and farm freezers repaired far from town
- Households: a kitchen fridge that stopped cooling, a freezer full of meat after a power cut, or a washing machine that won't drain
- Restaurants, butcheries and caterers: cold rooms, under-counter fridges and freezers kept at temperature through the lunch rush
