Fridge Thermostats in North West
Thermostats in North West are stocked by appliance spares shops for household models and refrigeration wholesalers for universal and commercial controls. In hot weather, a fridge that runs non-stop is often blamed on the thermostat when the condenser is dusty, so suppliers in North West may suggest checking that too.
The main fridge thermostats page explains the types, the checks and the costs in more detail.

What keeps North West cold
North West mixes platinum mining towns, a long maize and sunflower belt and weekend homes around Hartbeespoort Dam. In Rustenburg and Brits the fridge load comes from mine housing, hostels, canteens and the shops and taverns that serve them, while Klerksdorp and Potchefstroom have student digs, older family homes and a busy trade in second-hand appliances. Summers are hot and dry, dust blows off the mine dumps and ploughed lands, and rural areas can see long power cuts and dips in voltage. Farms around Lichtenburg and Delareyville keep chest freezers full of meat, and butcheries run walk-in cold rooms. Most requests are for fridges that run but do not cool, chest freezer repairs and cold room checks.

- Households: a new dial thermostat for a fridge that freezes the milk and lettuce
