Frost Prevention In Saudi Arabia

The frost in question occurs if cold rooms are not built properly with a low level heat barrier in the ground. Without the heat barrier the cold produced by the refrigeration process pulls the heat from the ground to leave moisture which will become freezing water and form an ice block similar to the permafrost found in arctic regions. The ice expands causing the floor and walls of the cold room to break up.

Condensation is also a problem in those high temperatures, caused when the door/s are opened and allowing the hot moisture laden air in to condense on the ceiling and wall surfaces of the cold room.

In Saudi Arabia they have found a solution to these problems by working with Thermatek, based in the UK, to supply products to prevent these problems occurring. The low voltage systems are manufactured in the UK and supplied with patented control panels to allow bespoke configuration of the system, thus ensuring optimum working efficiency and peace of mind for the cold room owner – maintaining a frost free environment in Saudi Arabia!
