How do I know what size coldroom I need?
Coldroom size depends on your product volume, stock rotation, and how often you load and unload. Consider not only current storage needs but future growth as well. You’ll also want to factor in space for shelving, airflow and access. A professional installer can help assess your usage and recommend a setup that’s both efficient and scalable.
Can coldrooms be used for freezing as well as chilling?
Yes, coldrooms can be configured as freezer rooms with the appropriate insulation thickness, compressor, and temperature control setup. These systems usually run below -18°C, which requires more robust sealing and performance features than standard chiller rooms. Freezer rooms are common in meat processing, seafood storage and medical facilities.
How often should a coldroom be serviced?
Coldrooms should be serviced at least once or twice a year, depending on usage. High-traffic setups like commercial kitchens may need quarterly inspections. Regular servicing includes checking insulation panels, cleaning evaporator coils, calibrating thermostats, and inspecting seals, hinges and fans. Skipping maintenance can lead to breakdowns, food spoilage and higher energy bills.
What are common coldroom problems to watch for?
Issues like temperature fluctuations, ice build-up, strange noises, water leaks and higher running costs can all indicate coldroom trouble. These problems are often caused by worn-out seals, dirty coils, faulty sensors or refrigerant leaks. Early detection and repair prevent small issues from becoming costly system failures.
