FAQ
Evapco freezer room construction in Maitland
How fast can a technician service Evapco equipment at a macadamia processing site in Maitland?
Maitland sits on the N1 and M5, so our Cape Town dispatch reaches most Maitland Industrial sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency freezer 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 freezer 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 freezer room construction performed against −18 °C to −25 °C room design. Moisture pickup drives rancidity and kernel downgrade
