Air conditioning hire
Hire Portable air conditioning for the summer only as this is a smart economical option to allow you to get well serviced and pat tested air conditioning units at the time you require it most without requiring to blow budgets on purchasing new expensive equipment your unsure of.
Have a CAS-Hire specialist adviser help assist you on calculating your room heat loads or equipment selection to help insure you get the most suitable product for your requirements. Our wide range of equipment like the, Bluemax fan, SF15, KY32 or the Titan cool HSC3500 can cater for offices, server rooms, laboratories, factory, hospital, retail and education environments to name only a few. If your premises are leased and your likely to move premises again fairly soon or the red tape for installing fixed air conditioning is simply not worth the hassle this allows you the opportunity to get a quick low cost alternative that keeps staff and business running smoothly.
A mobile air conditioning unit has three main requirements: sufficient space for the unit to operate, an electrical outlet, and a vent or opening for the exhausted hot air.
1. Affordable - Portable air conditioning hire is more affordable than traditional fixed air conditioning equipment and will usually not incur installation costs. We also offer long term hire or larger quantity unit hire rate discounts to help save you money simply call our free phone number 0800 525082 and discuss your requirement with one of our advisers.
2. Energy-Efficient - Overall, portable air conditioners are small and more economical to operate than installed fixed type air conditioners because they are usually only used to spot cool specific areas. However, remember that a portable air conditioner with a larger cooling capacity can cost more but if you need a mobile air conditioning system that will maximize energy-use, a portable air conditioning system from CAS-Hire is a great choice.
3. Minimal Installation Requirements - One of the main benefits of a portable air conditioner is the fact that it can be moved from room to room and does not need to be permanently installed.
4. Maneuverability- Almost all CAS-Hire portable air conditioners are set on rolling casters. Therefore, you can provide cooling comfort to any location with ease.
5. Multi-Functional - Portable air conditioners do more than just cool. The refrigeration cycle utilized by this range of units also dehumidify / dry the air in the room, making them ideal for use in a humid climate. Many CAS-hire portable air con units also feature built-in heaters and air purifiers to provide year-round use and cleaner air.

Portable ducted air conditioners work similarly to traditional fixed split type air conditioners in that they produce a cooling effect utilizing the refrigeration cycle and a refrigerant gas such as Freon. The equipment itself incorporates the cold and hot sides of the traditional Air Conditioning in one case, and an exhaust hose expels the hot air out of a window or suitable alternative location away from the unit itself. Once a portable ducted air conditioner cools the air, water is extracted from the air, and most of the water is then used to cool the actual unit.
The remaining water is then removed by one of three methods: a bucket or tray located within the unit collects the condensate, and this needs to be emptied periodically. The second method actually involves evaporating the water and exhausting it through a main venting duct and through a window or drop ceiling. The final method is by using a condensate pump located in the water tank that allows the water to be pumped up to 3-5m to a suitable drainage point. Portable air conditioning units do not require permanent installation however they still require flexible exhaust ducting to be vented outside or into an extract system.

A Portable split system (PSA unit) has an indoor unit on wheels connected to a lightweight outdoor unit by interconnecting refrigerant or water filled flexible pipes which are generally up to five meters in maximum length. They provide a large cooling capacity with the advantages of being mobile and readily operational and require minimal installation work.
Evaporative Cooler Hire or Air Cooler hire
Evaporative cooler / Air Coolers use a method of converting hot air into a cooling breeze using the evaporation of water. It is similar to the cool refreshing effect you feel when you're at the sea side or emerge from a swimming pool.
Our range of air-coolers utilizes the process of cold water evaporation along with an efficient air-moving system to create effective cooling. Fresh outside air is pulled through wetted filters that cool the air through the evaporation process. A centrifugal or computer designed axial fan type blower then circulates the cool air throughout the area requiring cooling. Evaporative coolers have a low initial cost; Evaporative coolers use a quarter as much electricity than conventional air conditioners and do not use refrigerants, such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and hydro chlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) that damage the ozone layer.
The range of commercial and industrial evaporative coolers available today has become extensive, Evaporative cooler hire are particularly well suited in areas where the air is hot and the humidity is low. However, in higher humidity areas, there are many proven cost-effective uses for evaporative cooling. For example, industrial plants, printers, retail outlets, laundries, greenhouses, warehouses, factories, construction sites, sporting events, airports, garages, plus poultry and dairy farms can all benefit from evaporative coolers.
When choosing an evaporative cooler to hire, a few important considerations should be kept in mind, particularly environmental conditions. Because evaporative coolers use the process of evaporation to cool the air, they will only be efficient in hot, arid climates as long as the water temperature inside the unit remains cool. Finally, unlike air conditioning units which require a closed environment, evaporative coolers require some sort of fresh air and ventilation in order to function properly.

Dehumidifier hire Excessive moisture / humidity causes a range of negative effects. Whether you're property has been flooded, had a burst pipe or require to store specialist products damp humidity / moisture can cause major damage and inconvenience. Building dryers or dehumidifiers hire from CAS-Hire is the ideal option to extract moisture and can help maintain indoor humidity at your required level.
If you need to regulate moisture levels in larger areas such as individual rooms or even basements you should hire the largest capacity unit you can afford. Dehumidifiers with larger tanks will work faster and more efficiently than smaller models. Some dehumidifier now have an inbuilt water pumps or a standard gravity drain hose connection allow you to divert condensed water directly to a sump pump or floor drain. This means you won't have to constantly empty water buckets, so it's ideal should you require to leave the dehumidifier unattended.

Humidifier Hire
Did you know that dry air can cause sore throats, cracked skin , aggravated allergy symptoms and also cause multiple production problems whether your industry be IT, printing, healthcare, food production to name but a few? Low humidity levels can also damage your home, workplace or product by chipping paint, causing wood floors to split or crack or delaying inks to be absorbed quickly. The normal (RH) relative humidity recommended is between 30-50%. We recommend the use of a digital monitor humidistat / hygrometer to monitor your workplace or home humidity level as found on our accessories page on our website www.cas-hire.co.uk . We aim to help establish whether a cool mist or warm mist humidifier hire suits your requirements best. Both are options are extremely effective in increasing moisture levels to the air, but there are a few differences. Cool mist humidifiers are more energy efficient but require a more hands on approach to prevent the risks caused by stagnant water while warm mist humidifiers are great for relieving congestion. However, they can cause burns if not used correctly.

Evaporative Humidifiers have a wick or filter which is used to absorb water. This water is evaporated by a fan and pushed out of the unit. Evaporative humidifiers offer a more natural form of humidification. As your moisture levels increase, the evaporation rate will gradually decrease. While these work great, many people dislike the noise created by the fan and we also recommend the use of antimicrobial cleaning cartridges or silver stick to help inhibit the growth of bacteria, mould and prevent slime build up inside the humidifier.
Ultrasonic humidifiers have a small metal diaphragm that vibrates at an ultrasonic frequency. This vibration creates water droplets without creating noise, and the mist can be described as a cool fog. Many ultrasonic humidifiers will also have antibacterial features to prevent stagnant water however we recommend water is refreshed daily.
Warm mist or Steam humidifiers from CAS-hire are extremely useful for soothing during the cold or flu season and also help vocal chords when preparing to perform. Warm mist or steam humidifiers have a heating element that heats the water in the tank because these humidifiers heat water before dispersing it into the air, so there's significantly less room for bacteria growth. As a result, they use more power than cool mist humidifiers and can be a burn risk.

Industrial Electric Heater Hire
Generally warehouses or factories lack insulation or have large door opening to outside making it awkward to retain a suitable warm working environment. Electric warehouse fan heaters hire from CAS-Hire are a simple convenient way to heat localized cold spots. They provide high output electric heat which is 100% efficient because all of the electricity used is converted into heat.

Hire Factory heaters or Warehouse heaters from CAS-Hire as an inexpensive solution which simple to operate, and maintenance-free if compared with propane jet heaters or oil fired heaters. They are able to heat areas where other heating solutions may be difficult to install, expensive or impractical. The best thing about electric warehouse heaters is that produce clean dry heat without any odor, no by-products of combustion, no naked flame, no messy oil spillages or water cause by propane cylinder sweating. Electric warehouse heaters usually have a feature that cut-out that turns the heater off should the heater get too hot.
Our Infra Red Heaters use quartz halogen bulbs that operate at a high temperature, converting almost all the electrical energy into short wavelength infra red radiation. These model of red rad electric space heater are ideal for heating hire applications such as garages, warehouses, factories and similar awkward to heat areas where convection heating would be difficult. The CAS-Hire fleet of Red Rad heaters are silent, generate no fumes or moisture and switch on or off almost instantly and can be powered by 110v or 230v electrical supplies.
Hire a ceramic heater from CAS-Hire and solve your localized spot heating problems. These long-wave infra-red heaters gently radiate heat directly onto the area and personnel required to be heated. The ceramic heaters generate heat by an alloy resistance wire which is set into a ceramic tablet. The ceramic element is normally glazed to prevent moisture penetrating into the ceramic. When using the ceramics at lower temperatures than quartz heaters, they have a lower radiant efficiency than quartz and can take a couple of minutes longer to heat-up and cool-down time. They are tough, durable, and produce no bright light and however offer a high radiant efficiency.

Office Heater hire
CAS-Hire recommend office heater hire with our range of Oil filled radiators and Convector radiant heater options or alternatively our 2.8Kw fan heater option. The Oil filled radiator heaters warm up special heat-conserving oil and radiate this heat into a personal area or room. As the oil is never burned, the radiator heaters are extremely safe, efficient, and economical. Our Convector hire range heat by using convection to take in the cold air near the floor, warming it up, and releasing it back into the room out the top of the heater when heat rises. The convection cycle will continue until the room is at the desired temperature, and the heater will then automatically switch off to save power.

Industrial Space Heater
We generally recommend this kind of heater hire is used to heat large warehouses or large open areas. They look like a jet engine because of how they blow hot air at a high rate. Our CAS-Hire range of Industrial space heaters use a fan to blow extremely hot air into a space and are very effective in heating large open areas and can produce a large heat output. CAS-Hire can provide a wide range of heaters for hire that come in all sizes and range in the BTU/ Kw output as well. If you have a large warehouse or construction site you may want to consider this option of heater to heat your workplace. Reference the safe operation of this type of heater we recommend make sure that nothing is placed in front of these heaters due to the intense heat being produced and the flame they generate could lead to fire or being burned. This type of heater also requires a cylinder of propane gas and a 110v or 240v electricity to power the fan.
CAS-Hire range of propane heaters are considerably more efficient and cost less to operate than the industrial electric heaters alternatives. Industrial propane space heaters are very safe to use, however show caution and adhere to all manufactures safety guidelines. When hiring for any type of heater insure you select the correct BTU / Kw output for the area you require to heat. Our selection of industrial fans on offer also include the Bluemax 950 which is possibly the most powerful industrial floor standing portable mancooler on the UK market today.
