Local context

Working in Upington Industrial

We service Upington Industrial, Upington Agri precinct and the surrounding blocks of Upington Industrial, Upington, with access off the N10 and N14. Extreme summer ambients above 40 °C mean condensers, gas charge and high-pressure protection must be specified for worst-case, not average, days.

FAQ

Evapco cold room construction in Upington Industrial

How fast can a technician service Evapco equipment at a macadamia processing site in Upington Industrial?

Upington Industrial sits on the N10 and N14, so our Upington dispatch reaches most Upington Industrial sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency cold room construction runs 24/7 because moisture pickup drives rancidity and kernel downgrade.

Do you stock OEM components for Evapco systems?

Yes — Evapco spray nozzles, drift eliminators, fan drives and water treatment kits. Evapco (USA) equipment on R404A 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 cold room construction 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 HACCP documentation your auditors expect.

What operating envelope do you commission this equipment to?

Macadamia Processing run at +8 °C to +15 °C at 55–65% RH, with cold room construction performed against −2 °C to +12 °C room design. Moisture pickup drives rancidity and kernel downgrade
