GearedBuilt, Sized & Supported By Us
South Africa’s automotive plants, mining workshops, food and beverage factories and distribution centres around Johannesburg, Durban, Gqeberha and Cape Town work through hot summers — humid on the KwaZulu-Natal coast — and cold Highveld winters. Austar HVLS fans cool people in summer and, run in reverse, push warm air trapped under the roof back down to floor level in winter.
