What type of Cool room or Freezer room do I need?

Every single business is different and has individual needs. A lot depends on the type, size and volume of product that you need to keep cold. There are a number of key considerations based around the type of product, and the ideal temperature and humidity conditions for that product. Our experienced team of Cool room and Freezer room designers can tailor a room to suit your specific requirements.

What sizes do Cool room and Freezer rooms come in?

There is virtually no limit to the available sizes in Cool rooms and Freezer rooms. Supermarkets, Restaurants, Cafe's and Bars all have very different size requirements depending on type, physical size, and volume of product needing to be kept cool.

Can I use any kind of shelving in my Cool room Freezer room?

In a word, no. There is a range of shelving options available that meet both Australian Standards and Health Dept. regulations. Each type of shelving is designed to maximise your available storage for specific products, while at the same time allowing for proper cool air circulation to keep your product at ideal conditions.

What sort of doors should I have on my Cool room or Freezer room?

Depending on the functionality and use of your room, you may need hinged, or sliding doors, glass door inserts, or large high doors that forklifts can drive in and out of. We can offer options to suit your requirements.

The temperature in my commercial fridge is rising, how long until my product starts to spoil?

Difficult to say, depending on the type of produce, the temperature of the day etc. However, there are a couple of things you can do to minimise the damage. The moment you notice an unusual rise in temperature, give Mackies a call so we can organise a technician to attend. Then move the stock out of the malfunctioning fridge/freezer to a working one if you can.

Our Cool room or Freezer room door gets open and shut all day. How can I minimise the impact of this on my electricity bill?

One of the best ways to minimise the loss of cold air and reduce energy bills is to install air curtains or plastic strip curtains. These minimise the cold air escaping and warm air entering your room. The installation of door alarms and red lights can alert staff that the door is open, and help them to remember to shut the door.

Do I ever need to get my commercial refrigeration system cleaned?

In a word yes. Why, not only will regular cleaning ensure that you comply with stringent Dept. Health guidelines, it will also ensure you are enjoying the lowest possible running costs. This should only be done by professional refrigeration technicians.

Do I need to service my commercial refrigeration system?

Let me ask, do you service your car? Regular, scheduled maintenance is critical to ensuring you meet health requirements, minimise energy costs, and minimise malfunctions that can occur due to lack of regular servicing. We like to think of regular maintenance as a smart investment!

What is the best Air Conditioner?

Even though every company probably says that their Air Conditioner is the 'best' a more accurate answer would be that there are a number of good Air Conditioning products available. What is best for you will depend on your particular situation, for example, if anyone suffers from allergies, the size of the area to be Air Conditioned, and so-on. Mackies experienced A/C consultants can help.

Mark Dryer is the best solar person in the business. We had solar installed by him in 2013. He is very knowledgeable when it comes to solar. I would highly recommend this business to anyone. Great work Mackies. Mark Dryer is a fantastic, humble and down to earth man. Keep up the great work.

Thanks Sofia, appreciate your feedback. Mark has been involved with Solar for a long time, and really knows his stuff. We think he is a pretty good bloke too.

Absolutely amazing service and knowledge. Dennis from Mackies dropped in to help us with an issue we had with our AC system that the manufacturers couldn't even fix.. Of course, he fixed it! Highly professional. I'll definitely be using Mackies again and recommending them to everyone.

Thanks Myone, Dennis is a good operator and a firm believer in the Mackies approach that customer service carries on after the installation and payment is complete. Whenever you need us we will be there.

The team at Mackie's installed our stand alone solar system for half the price of connecting to the grid. They supply the best products and their customer service is outstanding and faultless. The team know their stuff and since installation of our system we have not looked back and are using the power of the sun to build our dream home with NO BILLS.

Thanks Sharon, we appreciate your kind feedback. We are always striving to provide the best solutions and outcomes for our customers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long should Air Conditioners last?

With regular maintenance, your Air Conditioner could last around 12-15 years. However, this also depends on the environment where you live. If you live near salt water for example, and without additional corrosion protection, this can shorten the working life of your system dramatically.

Do Air Conditioners need regular servicing?

We service our cars to keep them in good working order, don't we? It is also a good idea to service your Air Conditioner too. Fortunately Air Conditioners do not need as much maintenance as a car. Regular filter cleaning, which you can do yourself every couple of months (depending on usage) and once a year full service check by a qualified Air Conditioning mechanic is usually sufficient.
