About us

Owner and director, Brett Arenhold, has gained extensive experience in the industry over the years and has worked with a variety of systems. He completed his apprenticeship in Zimbabwe, where he was involved in the tertiary and industrial sectors. In 2005, he moved to the UK and continued his career in Refrigeration and Air Conditioning, working for two large organisations in London. While in London, Brett met his Kiwi wife who convinced him to move to Wellington with her in 2011. Twelve years and two kids later, and it's safe to say they are here to stay! They love the outdoors, especially within the Porirua region, where they are based. Brett strongly believes in continuous learning and has been upskilling himself along the way while practicing his trade. This is essential to keep up with the fast-paced advancements in technology in this field. Some of the qualifications he has earned in New Zealand include Registered Electrical Installer, and CP Med gas. Additionally, he has completed other relevant courses such as Site Safe Supervisor, Elevated Work Platforms, Confined Spaces, and Heights and Harness Training.
