Marine Refrigeration in Mackay

Fast, Efficient Installations

On most seafaring vessels, refrigeration tends to be the biggest power hog. Choosing the right refrigeration system for your vessel will boost efficiency, reduce power consumption and save you money in the long run.

At MAAC Refrigeration & Air Conditioning, our skilled technicians have more than 19 years’ experience in the marine refrigeration industry. Servicing industrial and commercial clients across the Mackay region, we’re here to help you get the most out of your boat’s refrigeration system.

We also supply, install and maintain eutectic refrigeration systems, which are an efficient option suitable for running large fridges. Eutectic refrigeration systems are a common choice for fishing vessels, as their ‘cold sink’ feature allows for cold temperatures to remain after power has been shut off.

Benefits of marine refrigeration systems

We’re dedicated to achieving great results for our clients. That’s why we custom design and install marine refrigeration systems to suit your vessel. Sea boats differ from most internal environments, with smooth edges and rounded corners—that’s why a custom-fit design is essential for most ships. We also provide professional maintenance and repair services to keep your boat on the sea for longer.

The benefits of marine refrigeration systems

Refrigeration systems are essential for any seafaring vessel. Whether you’re transporting cargo, storing rubbish, or selling food and drinks, all your stock needs to be stored in optimal conditions. Safely stored food and drinks are vital for the health of your crew and passengers. For cargo ships, first-rate marine refrigeration systems are essential for assuring the quality of the cargo during transport.

As with all refrigeration systems, investing in a quality cooler to keep your vessel cool through the summer months is essential. While some systems may be cheaper to install, they may not be as economically viable in the long run—requiring regular upgrades and maintenance to boost performance. By investing in a quality option the first time around, you’ll save money, time and heartache.

Types of marine refrigeration units

There are two main types of marine refrigeration unit: self-contained units and built-in modular systems. Self-contained marine refrigeration units are simply dropped into a space, just like the fridges you’d find in any standard kitchen. These simple units are suitable for larger boats with abundant air conditioning space and power.

Modular, built-in refrigerators will use any available space in or near your ship’s galley. These systems work with the same components as self-contained units but are mountable within 3 to 4 metres of your refrigeration box.
