Common questions
Can a built-in Sub-Zero be repaired without removing the joinery in Kyalami Estates?
In most cases yes. The units are designed to be serviced from the front through the grille and toe panel; full de-racking is only needed for sealed system work.
What size ice machine do I need?
Size on peak daily draw, not average: roughly 0.5 to 1 kg of ice per restaurant cover per day, more for cocktail bars and function venues. We calculate demand on site, then specify machine output plus bin storage and the water treatment your supply needs.
Do you work inside gated estates?
Regularly. Technician details, ID numbers and vehicle registration are submitted to the HOA or gatehouse before the appointment so access is cleared in advance.
