What Kollam's climate means for your refrigeration
- Summer highs average 32.9 °C in February — moderate outdoors, but kitchens and shop fronts run hotter. A 43 °C ambient rating still gives useful headroom.
- Average humidity is 81% across the year, peaking near 88% in June. Expect condensation on glass doors and cabinet edges; heated or double-glazed glass and a well-drained defrost system matter here.
- Humid air is also hard on condenser coils and steel. Keep coils clean, check door gaskets often and choose stainless steel interiors that resist corrosion.
