Local context
Working in Jacobs
We service Jacobs Industrial and the surrounding blocks of Jacobs, Durban, with access off the N2 and M4. Sub-tropical coastal humidity keeps wet-bulb temperatures high year-round, which raises evaporative condenser duty and accelerates coil corrosion.

FAQ
Evapco cold room construction in Jacobs
How fast can a technician service Evapco equipment at a reefer container depots site in Jacobs?
Jacobs sits on the N2 and M4, so our Durban dispatch reaches most Jacobs Industrial sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency cold room construction runs 24/7 because a failed pti holds the box and the booking.
Do you stock OEM components for Evapco systems?
Yes — Evapco spray nozzles, drift eliminators, fan drives and water treatment kits. Evapco (USA) equipment on 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 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 SANS 10147 documentation your auditors expect.
What operating envelope do you commission this equipment to?
Reefer Container Depots run at −30 °C to +12 °C at 80–90% RH, with cold room construction performed against −2 °C to +12 °C room design. A failed PTI holds the box and the booking
