Fast, Efficient Installations
Marine Refrigeration in Mackay
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.
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.

Stay Cool & Comfortable
Marine Air Conditioning in Mackay
Whenever you’re out on the sea, you want to feel comfortable. The outside temperature is no concern when you’ve installed a reliable, high-quality air conditioning unit. The open sea’s ambient temperatures can be uncomfortable, especially when paired with serious humidity, leading to decreased productivity and general discomfort for your crew members.
At MAAC Refrigeration & Air Conditioning, we’ve supplied, installed and repaired marine air conditioning systems for clients in the Mackay region for more than 19 years. Our extensive experience in the marine cooling industry means we can offer the absolute best professional advice to our valued customers.
Benefits of marine refrigeration systems
When choosing a new marine air conditioning unit, you should consider several factors:
- System capacity
- Energy consumption
- Bonus features
- Noise levels
Remember—not all air conditioners work with all boat styles and sizes. Different air conditioners also boast different cooling capacities. It’s important to match the size of your indoor space with the capacity of your new air conditioner. At MAAC Refrigeration & Air Conditioning, we work with you to select the perfect air conditioning solution for your vessel.
Choosing the right air conditioning system for your vessel
Each of our advanced marine air conditioners is highly engineered and designed to suit the stressful conditions brought on by sea travel. We also offer environmentally friendly options and specialised, innovative solutions to reduce vibration within your ship’s living spaces.
Types of marine refrigeration units
Several bonus features are available with our marine air conditioning systems, including:
- Rustproof draining pans
- Anti-vibration mounts
- Hermetically-sealed units
Rusty drain pans can develop holes and begin to leak water. Replacing a rusty drain pan — or in serious cases, the entire unit — can be costly and time-consuming. Avoid the hassle by choosing a rust-proof drain pan for your vessel’s air conditioning unit.
