Hardware for a coastal climate
Durban’s heat, humidity and summer storms are tough on electronics. Business-grade laptops are built for heavier daily use, but no device enjoys damp, heat or power surges. A few habits go a long way:
- Fit surge protection on all computers, screens and network gear.
- Put desktops, your router and your switch on a UPS.
- Keep devices off the floor and out of direct sun, and keep ventilation clear.
- Never leave laptops in a hot car.
- Back up to the cloud so a failed device never means lost work.
See our guide to a [load shedding-proof office] for the full setup.
