Chillers for salt, dust and altitude

What we install

An outdoor-rated cabinet with a titanium heat exchanger, because the water is cold, circulating and usually ozonated. Insulated hoses connecting low in the tub wall so nothing crosses the rim. A sealed filtered enclosure wherever salt or dust is in the air.

It runs to a setpoint in cycles and lets the lid do the overnight work, which is what gives a compressor a life expectancy.

Sizing by location

Zanzibar and Dar: a step up from temperate figures, always. Warm humid nights mean the unit never gets a rest.

Serengeti and the southern parks: a step up for ambient plus a dust package, because a blanketed condenser cannot reject heat regardless of size.

Moshi and Ngorongoro: often a size down, because the nights genuinely help.

Service in blocks

Dar weekly. Zanzibar, the northern circuit and the southern parks in scheduled blocks so several properties share the travel and the ferry.

Coastal visits include a corrosion inspection; bush visits include a dust inspection and a filter change.

In short

• Titanium heat exchanger everywhere; sealed filtered enclosure at the coast and in the bush
• Sized by location — Zanzibar up, the crater rim down
• Scheduled service blocks so travel and ferry costs are shared
• Corrosion inspection on the coast, dust inspection in the bush
