When is It Appropriate to Use Temporary Air Cooled Chillers?

10 to 500 ton air-cooled temporary chillers are an excellent emergency cooling option for large businesses, buildings or areas. These offer supplemental cooling when there is an HVAC equipment outage or when the HVAC equipment is being worked on. These temporary chillers offer supplemental or stable emergency cooling under most conditions and help keep office equipment secure and working conditions as comfortable as possible. They can be easily installed and ready to function immediately.

If you ever wonder what type of situation merits the use of a temporary chiller, let’s look at the case of the USS Intrepid. In 2000, the naval ship was undergoing a revitalization project, and the HVAC system needed updating. However, because of the enclosed quarters, workers could not be left without any type of cooling system. To make matters worse, the Intrepid was scheduled to be a part of the 2000 Op-Sail festivities during the same interim as the HVAC repair work was being conducted.

Some type of temporary cooling system was needed, and this is when Carrier Rental Systems was called in to provide a temporary chilled water cooling system. Carrier Rental System developed a portable system made of two 210-ton air chillers, two large generators, pumps and all other necessary accessories. 

The portable system was set up on trailers for mobility and to save space. It offered the cooling the ship needed and allowed for the continued work on the existing HVAC system without interfering with the ship’s functionality.

This same type of temporary chiller system rental can work on any other type of building or business. So, when you need temporary cooling options, especially during HVAC repair work, you may want to consider a Carrier temporary water-cooled chiller option to keep the indoor environment as comfortable as possible. This not only helps employee performance, but keeps existing office equipment, such as computers, servers and printers, in optimal condition.
