Engineered & Delivered

Mechanical Engineering & Building Services

At Lean Energy, we deliver fully coordinated mechanical building services – HVAC&R, fire protection, wet services, medical gases and specialist extraction – engineered for commercial, retail, educational, medical, industrial and residential projects across South Africa. Using Revit 3D MEP, HAP sizing, SANSCalc XA compliance and finite element verification, we engineer systems that are technically robust, regulation-compliant, and construction-ready. Our designs meet stringent SANS and Green Star requirements, minimise lifecycle costs, and are issued as fully coordinated, clash-free construction drawings. Precision engineered. Performance assured. Built to endure.
