John Thompson Steam System Maintenance in Roodepoort
John Thompson steam system maintenance in Roodepoort. Locally manufactured industrial plant with strong local parts support.
John Thompson equipment we work on includes packaged steam and hot water boilers. Commonly replaced parts on this brand are level controls, burners, refractory, and we keep or source these against the unit's model and serial plate rather than by guesswork.
Most steam energy is lost after the boiler, not inside it. Failed traps, uninsulated headers and condensate dumped to drain quietly waste fuel every hour the plant runs, and a trap survey usually pays for itself long before the next maintenance cycle.
Broad residential base with light industrial parks and a large number of ageing geysers and early heat pumps. Retrofit from element geysers to heat pumps is common here. Gauteng municipal water is moderately hard, so scale on elements and heat exchangers is the single most common cause of falling performance.
