Local context
Working in Philippi
We service Philippi Horticultural Area, Philippi Industrial and the surrounding blocks of Philippi, Cape Town, with access off the N2 and R300. Mediterranean summers with strong south-easters carry dust and salt onto condenser coils, and winter rain drives condensation risk at dock openings.

FAQ
Güntner air-cooled condenser cleaning in Philippi
How fast can a technician service Güntner equipment at a macadamia processing site in Philippi?
Philippi sits on the N2 and R300, so our Cape Town dispatch reaches most Philippi Horticultural Area sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency air-cooled condenser cleaning runs 24/7 because moisture pickup drives rancidity and kernel downgrade.
Do you stock OEM components for Güntner systems?
Yes — Güntner EC fan modules, defrost heaters and coil blocks. Güntner (Germany) equipment on R404A/R134a charges is supported with the fast-moving spares held at our Pretoria North workshop and non-stock items brought in on OEM order.
What pressure testing and gas compliance certificates are provided?
Every air-cooled condenser cleaning job closes with a pressure test record and gas handling Certificate of Conformance issued under SANS 10147 by a SAQCC Gas registered technician, plus the HACCP documentation your auditors expect.
What operating envelope do you commission this equipment to?
Macadamia Processing run at +8 °C to +15 °C at 55–65% RH, with air-cooled condenser cleaning performed against +40 °C to +55 °C condensing in peak ambient. Moisture pickup drives rancidity and kernel downgrade
