When people call for emergency cooling

Cooling emergencies are rarely planned. The pattern is almost always the same: a fixed system fails, or the forecast changes, and the space has to stay usable regardless.

  • Fixed air conditioning breakdown
  • Sudden heatwave with no cooling in place
  • Server or comms room running hot
  • Clinics and care settings needing safe room temperatures
  • Hospitality venues protecting bookings
  • Events that can't be rescheduled

How fast can you get a unit?

Honestly: it depends on unit availability and where you are. We won't promise a slot we can't hit. Send your postcode and dates and we'll come back with the earliest realistic delivery.

Requests can be sent 24/7 — the form doesn't close when the office does.

Cover while repairs happen

Emergency hire isn't a replacement for fixing a fixed system. It buys you working weeks while the repair is scheduled, so staff stay productive and customers stay comfortable.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Can I request outside working hours?

Yes. Requests can be submitted at any time and are picked up as early as possible.

Do you offer same-day delivery?

Same-day is sometimes possible depending on stock and your location. We confirm the actual slot before you commit rather than guaranteeing one upfront.

Can you cover several rooms at once?

Yes — tell us how many rooms and roughly how big they are, and we'll quote the number of units needed.
