What Ranchi's climate means for your refrigeration
- With about 48 days a year above 35 °C, a kitchen near the cooking line can run well above that. Specify units rated for 43 °C ambient so summer peaks don't push stored food out of range.
- Average humidity is 66% across the year, peaking near 89% in August. 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.
- Summer evenings often bring voltage drops and power cuts. Give each large unit its own earthed socket, ask about the operating voltage range, and plan backup for anything that cannot be allowed to warm up.
