Local context
Working in Cornubia
We service Cornubia Industrial and Business Estate and the surrounding blocks of Cornubia, Durban, with access off the N2 and M41. Sub-tropical coastal humidity keeps wet-bulb temperatures high year-round, which raises evaporative condenser duty and accelerates coil corrosion.

FAQ
Evapco blast freezer installation in Cornubia
How fast can a technician service Evapco equipment at a mining & bulk air cooling site in Cornubia?
Cornubia sits on the N2 and M41, so our Durban dispatch reaches most Cornubia Industrial and Business Estate sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency blast freezer installation runs 24/7 because underground heat stress limits shift productivity.
Do you stock OEM components for Evapco systems?
Yes — Evapco spray nozzles, drift eliminators, fan drives and water treatment kits. Evapco (USA) equipment on R717/R744 charges is supported with the fast-moving spares held at our Pretoria North workshop and non-stock items brought in on OEM order.
What pressure testing and gas compliance certificates are provided?
Every blast freezer installation job closes with a pressure test record and gas handling Certificate of Conformance issued under SANS 10147 by a SAQCC Gas registered technician, plus the MHSA documentation your auditors expect.
What operating envelope do you commission this equipment to?
Mining & Bulk Air Cooling run at +2 °C to +12 °C chilled water at 90–100% RH, with blast freezer installation performed against −35 °C to −40 °C air-off. Underground heat stress limits shift productivity
