Cold Room Installation: How we do it
At Fridge Repair Kenya, we understand that proper cold room installation is critical to maintaining the quality and safety of temperature-sensitive products. Whether you’re in the food industry, pharmaceuticals, or hospitality, our systematic approach ensures your cold room operates efficiently from day one.
Initial Assessment and Planning
Our installation process begins with a comprehensive site assessment. Our experienced technicians visit your premises to evaluate the available space, electrical infrastructure, and your specific cooling requirements. We discuss your business needs in detail, considering factors such as the types of products you’ll store, required temperature ranges, and expected storage capacity. This thorough planning phase allows us to design a cold room solution perfectly tailored to your operations.
Custom Design and Specifications
Based on our assessment, we create detailed technical drawings and specifications for your cold room. We carefully select insulation materials with appropriate thickness to ensure optimal thermal efficiency. Our team specifies the right refrigeration equipment, including compressors, evaporators, and condensers, sized precisely for your requirements. We also plan the layout of shelving, lighting, and access doors to maximize usable space while maintaining proper air circulation.
Professional Installation Process
The installation itself follows strict quality standards. We begin by preparing the installation site, ensuring the floor is level and can support the cold room’s weight. Our certified technicians then construct the insulated panels, creating an airtight seal that prevents temperature loss. Each panel joint is carefully sealed to eliminate thermal bridges that could compromise efficiency.
Next, we install the refrigeration system, mounting the evaporator inside the cold room and positioning the condensing unit in a well-ventilated area outside. All refrigerant lines are properly insulated and secured, and we perform pressure tests to ensure the system is leak-free before charging it with refrigerant.
Electrical Work and Controls
Our qualified electricians handle all electrical connections according to Kenyan safety standards. We install temperature controllers with digital displays, allowing you to monitor and adjust settings easily. Emergency alarms are fitted to alert you to any temperature deviations, protecting your valuable inventory. We also install appropriate lighting that functions reliably in cold environments.
Testing and Commissioning
Before handing over the cold room, we conduct extensive testing. We run the system through multiple cooling cycles, verifying that it reaches and maintains the desired temperature consistently. We check door seals, drainage systems, and all safety features. Our team provides comprehensive training to your staff, ensuring they understand how to operate the system efficiently and recognize early warning signs of potential issues.
Ongoing Support
At Fridge Repair Kenya, our relationship doesn’t end with installation. We offer maintenance contracts to keep your cold room running optimally and provide 24/7 emergency support.
