Where we work around Gelligaer
In a town like Gelligaer, a single wall unit for a shop or a cassette for a surgery makes a real difference in summer. Newport, Gwent is about 20 km away.
That includes premises in CF82 and the surrounding districts. We also work in nearby Blackwood, Pontypridd and Caerphilly. Many buildings have a mix of older and newer systems, so we record each one separately and nothing is missed.
