In today’s fast-paced industrial world, downtime isn’t just inconvenient-it’s costly. At Rapid Chiller Rentals we understand how a sudden breakdown of a chiller or boiler system can throw your entire site into chaos. That’s why we specialise in providing fast, reliable temporary chiller hire and boiler hire solutions across the UK, helping you get back on track with minimal disruption.
1. The Hidden Cost of Cooling Failure
When your main cooling or heating system fails-whether it is a manufacturing line, process plant, or data-centre-the ripple effect is immediate: perishable goods spoil, sensitive process equipment overheats, and production schedules slip. With our hire fleet ranging from 10 kW to 1,000 kW-and above-portable chillers and boilers, you don’t need to buy new equipment or wait weeks for installation. We deliver and install swiftly, so your operation keeps its pace.
2. Flexibility When You Need It Most
In today’s fast-paced business environment, flexibility isn’t just an advantage — it’s a necessity. Whether you’re facing an unexpected equipment breakdown, a scheduled plant shutdown, or a seasonal surge in cooling or heating demand, having access to reliable temporary chiller and boiler hire gives you the freedom to adapt quickly without interrupting operations.
At Rapid Chillers, we understand that every site and situation is different. That’s why we offer a wide range of hire options — from compact, portable chillers ideal for small commercial applications to large-capacity industrial units designed for process cooling or heating on demanding sites. You can hire equipment for as little as a few days or as long as several months, depending on your project needs.
Our flexible hire plans are built around your schedule and budget. There’s no need for heavy upfront investment or long-term commitment — you pay only for the time and capacity you need. Once your project is complete, our team takes care of decommissioning and collection, ensuring a seamless, stress-free experience from start to finish.
This level of flexibility also allows businesses to test new technologies or improve system efficiency without permanent installation costs. Many clients use our temporary chiller hire solutions to bridge the gap during equipment upgrades or to trial energy-efficient systems before making a long-term purchase decision.
Whether it’s a data centre maintaining critical cooling, a food manufacturer protecting product quality, or a construction site requiring temporary heating, our adaptable approach ensures that your business never stops running — no matter the challenge.
With Rapid Chillers, you don’t just get equipment; you get a tailored solution designed to fit your timeline, your budget, and your operational goals.
3. Expertise & Compliance Built In
We don’t just provide a piece of equipment; we provide peace of mind. Our team helps you select the right system for your cooling or heating requirement, taking into consideration things like load, temperature, energy efficiency, power supply, and space. And everything we provide complies with current regulations-such as F-Gas legislation and CE certification for chillers.
4. From Office Blocks to Heavy Industry
Our hire fleet covers a wide range of applications. For commercial buildings, we support air-conditioning systems, guarantee comfortable working environments, and maintain tenant satisfaction. In the case of industrial or manufacturing uses, we provide robust process chillers to handle demanding loads or low-temperature applications. Whatever your sector, we will tailor our temporary cooling or heating solution around your needs.
5. Why Choose Rapid Chiller Rentals?
Speed: We know time is of the essence. As one of our clients put it: “My chiller went down at approx 2pm… phoned Rapid at 5pm and they were here by 7pm with a solution.”
Range: From 10 kW through to 1,500 kW-plus chillers and high-capacity boiler rentals, our fleet is built for difference-making.

Nationwide coverage: Based in the North West, but serving across the UK so wherever your site is located, we can be there.
6. How to Get the Most From Temporary Hire
- Early submission of your details: Please provide us with as much information as possible about load, ambient conditions, and duration required, so we can recommend the correct capacity unit.
- Plan for installation: ensure access for delivery, crane/hiab if needed, and location for the equipment.
- Understand the terminology: Weekly rates, installation and decommissioning included, and we take the equipment away when you’re done.
- Think ahead for contingencies: Even if your current plant is working today, consider having a backup plan in which temporary hiring can be one part of the contingent protocol before actual downtime happens.
7. Future-Proofing Your Cooling Strategy
It’s no longer good enough to replace a failed chiller with the “same old” as environmental regulation tightens and energy efficiency becomes paramount. Indeed, temporary hire lets you bridge the gap while you assess upgrades-perhaps a much more efficient water-cooled system or a modular design that scales. During that assessment period, you remain operational and protected.
8. A Partner You Can Rely On
We are not just a hire company; we are your partner in ensuring business continuity. Whether it is for a one-off emergency, planned shutdown, or long-term project requiring interim cooling or heating capacity, we step forward with commitment and reliability. With our mantra of “quality, safety & passion”, your uptime becomes our priority.
