Commercial hire
Commercial Air Conditioning Hire
Keep staff working and customers comfortable.
Portable cooling for offices, retail, hospitality, clinics and events across the UK — for a heatwave, a busy season, or cover while a fixed system is down.
Where businesses use portable cooling
Uncomfortable premises cost you twice: productivity inside, and customers who don't stay. Portable cooling addresses the specific rooms that overheat without a fit-out project.
- Offices and meeting rooms
- Shops and showrooms
- Salons, barbers and clinics
- Restaurants, cafés and bars
- Gyms and studios
- Schools, nurseries and care settings
- Events, marquees and pop-ups
- Server and comms rooms where appropriate
Short-lease and landlord-restricted premises
Many commercial tenants can't install fixed systems: the landlord won't permit external plant, or a short lease can't justify the capital cost.
Hire converts that capital decision into an operating cost you only carry while you need it.
Multi-unit and emergency hire
Larger spaces usually work better with several units positioned where heat builds, rather than one oversized unit in a corner.
If a fixed system fails during a hot spell, portable units keep you trading while repairs are arranged. Tell us what happened and how much space you need to cover.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Can you supply multiple units to one site?
Yes. Multi-unit hires are quoted individually based on the space, dates and delivery location.
Do you invoice businesses?
Commercial hires are quoted before delivery and invoiced with the agreed terms confirmed in writing.
Can you cover an air conditioning breakdown?
Yes — emergency cover is one of the most common commercial uses. Availability depends on stock and location, so send your details and we'll confirm the earliest slot.
Will units work in a server or comms room?
Portable cooling can help in smaller technical spaces, but suitability depends on the heat load and venting route. Describe the room in your request and we'll advise honestly.
