What size coldroom do I need for a farm or commercial facility?
The right coldroom size depends on how much stock you store, how often it rotates and how your workflow operates. For farms in Tully, large-format walk-in coldrooms with space for pallet access and airflow between produce bins are ideal. For seafood or commercial kitchens, smaller coldrooms with fast temperature recovery and easy-to-clean surfaces may be more appropriate. It’s important to plan not just for current use, but for peak load periods, future growth and hygiene requirements.
How do you maintain refrigeration equipment in tropical regions like Tully?
Tropical areas present unique challenges like high humidity, consistent heat and salt exposure, especially near the coast. These factors can cause faster corrosion, refrigerant leaks and reduced system efficiency. Regular maintenance includes inspecting and cleaning condenser coils, checking for leaks, verifying seal integrity, calibrating thermostats and ensuring drains are clear. Preventative servicing helps reduce the risk of component failure and extends the life of both static and transport refrigeration systems.
Why are refrigeration calibrations important for my business?
Calibrations ensure your refrigeration system maintains accurate, stable temperatures. This is critical in industries like food production, seafood handling and pharmaceuticals, where temperature fluctuations can lead to spoilage, safety risks or compliance failures. Calibrated systems also use energy more efficiently, reducing running costs. Professional calibration includes temperature testing with certified instruments and system adjustments to meet required specifications. It’s a small task that can prevent large-scale product loss and regulatory issues.
What should I do if my coldroom isn’t holding temperature properly?
If your coldroom starts warming or fluctuating in temperature, act quickly. First, avoid opening the doors to retain the remaining cold air. Check the door seals, power supply and monitor for frost buildup, which could suggest airflow issues. Call a licensed refrigeration technician to diagnose and fix the problem before it escalates. Delayed action could result in total stock loss, equipment damage and unnecessary downtime. In a humid area like Tully, fast response is key.
