Electroserv Pty Ltd service and repair all brands of Power Factor Correction and back this up with detailed reporting and extended warranty.  We also perform harmonic and energy usage/demand analysis plus reporting with costed recommendations. To identify the problems associated with the power factor systems mounted we recommend a full check and report of the system.

This includes, but not limited to, the following:

• Switch off system after internal and external temperature checks.
• Clean and Vacuum all internal and external parts including fan filters.
