Cold rooms & commercial in Free State: local notes
Commercial refrigeration in the Free State serves butcheries, abattoirs and supermarkets in Bloemfontein, Kroonstad and Welkom, and the guest houses and restaurants of Clarens and Fouriesburg. Fruit farms near Ficksburg cool cherries and other stone fruit in season. Forecourt shops along the N3 at Harrismith and the N1 at Kroonstad run banks of bottle coolers. Sasolburg factories and the depots in Hamilton use contractors who also maintain larger cold stores.
Free State: heat, power and cold chains
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 refrigeration technicians requests in the area come from:
- Households: a leak find, regas or compressor change on a household fridge or freezer
- Farms, packhouses and dairies: sealed system work on dairy coolers, produce cold rooms and farm freezers
- Shops, cafes and supermarkets: a technician who knows bottle coolers and freezers and can come out quickly
