Local context
Working in Alrode
We service Alrode Industrial, Alrode South and the surrounding blocks of Alrode, Alberton, with access off the N3 and R59. 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.
