Free State notes on fridge & appliance repairs
Fridge repairs in Bloemfontein come from Langenhovenpark, Universitas, Heidedal and Mangaung, and from student digs around the campus. In Welkom, Thabong and Riebeeckstad, older fridges in hot kitchens often need a regas or a new relay. A chest freezer in an unheated garage in Bethlehem or Harrismith may hum without cooling on a frosty morning, which a technician can check. Washing machine repairs are usually quoted by the same appliance technicians in the larger towns.
What keeps Free State cold
The Free State has a climate of extremes for fridges. Bloemfontein and Welkom swing from hot summer afternoons to frosty winter nights, and on the eastern highlands around Bethlehem and Harrismith snow is not unusual. Fridges and chest freezers kept in garages and outside rooms can stop starting in deep cold, then struggle in January heat. Grain and cattle farms keep freezers full of meat, the goldfields towns around Welkom have many spaza shops and taverns, and Clarens is full of guest houses and restaurants. Trucks on the N1 and N3 stop at forecourt shops with long rows of bottle coolers. Repairs to freezers, regassing and display cooler work make up most requests.
Typical fridge services requests in the area come from:
- Households: a yearly check on the family fridge and garage freezer before the heat arrives
- Farms, packhouses and dairies: farmhouse and staff quarters fridges serviced in one long trip
- Shops, cafes and supermarkets: a small shop booking a check so stock fridges do not fail on weekends
