First corrosionproof AHU developed

After significant research and development into a new air handling unit (AHU), Pietermaritzburg-based air conditioning contractor TROX South Africa now offers the market the non-metallic XeCube AHU, which has a high level of structural integrity, is impervious to corrosion and is significantly cheaper than the company’s previous AHUs. “After identifying unit corrosion as a significant cost factor for coastal clients, we explored the development of a unit that was not only more resilient to the elements but also cheaper and easier to install,” highlights TROX production manager Gonnie Pandither.
