Local context
Working in Letsitele
We service Letsitele packhouse precinct and the surrounding blocks of Letsitele, Tzaneen, with access off the R71 and R529. Long, hot lowveld summers regularly exceed 36 °C, so high-ambient head pressure control and shaded plant rooms are non-negotiable.

FAQ
Frascold compressor burnout cleanup in Letsitele
How fast can a technician service Frascold equipment at a airfreight perishable handling site in Letsitele?
Letsitele sits on the R71 and R529, so our Tzaneen dispatch reaches most Letsitele packhouse precinct sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency compressor burnout cleanup runs 24/7 because ramp exposure breaks the chain before uplift.
Do you stock OEM components for Frascold systems?
Yes — Frascold gasket sets, oil separators and capacity control valves. Frascold (Italy) equipment on R744/R134a/R449A 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 compressor burnout cleanup 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 IATA PCR documentation your auditors expect.
What operating envelope do you commission this equipment to?
Airfreight Perishable Handling run at +2 °C to +8 °C at 85–90% RH, with compressor burnout cleanup performed against −40 °C to +10 °C evaporating. Ramp exposure breaks the chain before uplift
