Local context
Working in Pinetown
We service Pinetown Industrial, New Germany and the surrounding blocks of Pinetown, Durban, with access off the N3 and M13. Sub-tropical coastal humidity keeps wet-bulb temperatures high year-round, which raises evaporative condenser duty and accelerates coil corrosion.
