Local context

Working in Activia Park

We service Activia Park and the surrounding blocks of Activia Park, Germiston, with access off the N3 and R24. Highveld summers push afternoon ambients past 32 °C with heavy thunderstorm humidity, so condensers here are sized with a generous approach and cleaned before every summer.
