Fridges and refrigeration in Paarl
Paarl sits in a hot valley along the Berg River, ringed by vineyards and fruit farms, and refrigeration here follows the harvest. From January the packhouses and cold stores around Groot Drakenstein, Simondium and Wellington fill with table grapes and stone fruit that need fast cooling, and wine cellars run glycol chillers and tank cooling through the crush. In town, homes in Dal Josafat, Mbekweni and the older streets off Main Road cope with summer days that are much hotter than in Cape Town, which is hard on fridges in closed garages and outside kitchens. Fruit farms, cellars, guest houses, butcheries and households ask for repairs, cold room work and condensing units most.
Typical mobile cold rooms requests in the area come from:
- Farms, packhouses and dairies: a cold room that moves to the harvest, the abattoir or the market
- Households: a hired chiller for a family wedding, funeral, umembeso or big braai
- Factories and cold stores: temporary cold storage while a fixed cold room is repaired or replaced
