FAQ

Evapco cooling tower maintenance in Hamilton

How fast can a technician service Evapco equipment at a table grape packhouses site in Hamilton?

Hamilton sits on the N1 and N8, so our Bloemfontein dispatch reaches most Hamilton Industrial sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency cooling tower maintenance runs 24/7 because slow pull-down causes so₂ pad burn and berry shatter.

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/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 cooling tower maintenance 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 PPECB documentation your auditors expect.

What operating envelope do you commission this equipment to?

Table Grape Packhouses run at −0.5 °C to +1 °C at 90–95% RH, with cooling tower maintenance performed against +28 °C to +40 °C condenser water. Slow pull-down causes SO₂ pad burn and berry shatter
