Local context
Working in Croydon
We service Croydon Industrial and the surrounding blocks of Croydon, Kempton Park, with access off the R21 and N12. 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.

FAQ
Alfa Laval energy retrofit & optimisation in Croydon
How fast can a technician service Alfa Laval equipment at a data centre & critical cooling site in Croydon?
Croydon sits on the R21 and N12, so our Kempton Park dispatch reaches most Croydon Industrial sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency energy retrofit & optimisation runs 24/7 because thermal runaway trips racks within minutes.
Do you stock OEM components for Alfa Laval systems?
Yes — Alfa Laval plate packs, gaskets and cleaning-in-place chemistry. Alfa Laval (Sweden) equipment on R744/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 energy retrofit & optimisation 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 ASHRAE TC9.9 documentation your auditors expect.
What operating envelope do you commission this equipment to?
Data Centre & Critical Cooling run at +18 °C to +27 °C supply air at 40–60% RH, with energy retrofit & optimisation performed against Plant-wide kWh reduction of 15–35%. Thermal runaway trips racks within minutes
