Ice Machine Relocation in Pretoria

Ice Machine Relocation in Pretoria, Pretoria. Safe decommission, move and recommission of ice plant.

Relocations are the point at which siting mistakes get corrected: clearances, ambient, drain fall and water pressure. We isolate, drain, move, reconnect and recommission with the output verified in the new position.

The installed base here runs from single undercounter bar machines through to modular hotel plant and flake counters, so the first job is establishing exactly what is installed and how hard it is worked. Pretoria and surrounds are covered on planned routes, with ice-plant breakdowns slotted into the nearest run.

Water in this part of Gauteng is moderately hard, so scale on evaporator plates, spray bars and float valves is the single most common reason output drifts below the plate rating. Condenser clearance and kitchen extract have as much effect on daily output as the refrigeration charge, so both are checked before any sealed-system work is quoted.
