Why You Should Always Book A Cool Room Repair After The Summer Busy Season

Posted on: 14 January 2022

Cool rooms are used all across Australia, especially during summer where they come in handy to keep food, drink, medicine, chemicals and other supplies at a reasonable temperature. No matter what you use your cool room for, or whether it is a portable or stationary one, summer will be the busiest and toughest time of year for it. That is why many people suggest having annual cool room repairs scheduled just after the busy summer period to ensure that your cool room is in a good condition.  Here are a few reasons why scheduling cool room repairs after summer is such a good plan.

Fix It Before Storage

If you use your coolroom primarily during summer, then it can sit for a long period of time during the colder months without anyone even looking at it. That means that problems created during summer can go undetected and get much worse. Whether it's issues with insulation, ventilation, seals or the cooling system itself, time will make all of them much more complicated to fix. The last thing you want to do is to get your cool room ready at the start of next summer only to discover it is in a state of disrepair.

Restore It Back To Maximum Efficiency 

Just like an athlete coming to the end of a busy season, most cool rooms at the end of summer will not be operating at maximum efficiency. There will be little problems that you have been putting up with because taking it out of service for any amount of time could cost you time and money. Once everything starts to calm down, though, it is important you use this relaxed period to restore your cool room to maximum efficiency so that you are not spending far too much on electricity and maintenance in the future.

Find Problems You Missed

Even if you are very careful with your cool room and inspect it often during the summer period, there is a good chance it will still be carrying issues that are just below the surface. Getting these fixed before they actually rear their head can be a great way to make sure you are well placed for next summer, or even during the off-season. Not only that, but preventative work is always better than reactionary fixes, in terms of both time and money spent, so make the smartest choice and schedule an annual cool room repair.

Storing my household

Last year I was offered a really awesome 12-month work secondment in New York, but of course I couldn't take all of my stuff over there as I have a 4 bedroom house here and I sure wasn't able to afford that in New York! I had to go through the process of packing everything up so that I was able to rent a furnished place over there then come back to all of my belongings. This blog is all about how to be an efficient packer and how to store your items properly if you are heading away for a period of time.
