What to know locally in North West
Refrigeration technicians in Rustenburg and Brits look after mine kitchens, butcheries and supermarket chillers, while those in Klerksdorp cover Orkney, Stilfontein and the farm towns towards Wolmaransstad. Farm butcheries and abattoirs on the road to Lichtenburg and Zeerust need cold rooms that hold steady through the hottest months. Ask for a contractor who can come back quickly, as a cold room failure in January can cost a full load of meat.
North West: heat, power and cold chains
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.
