Fast, Reliable HVAC Hire in 8 Clear Steps
Hiring temporary HVAC equipment shouldn’t be complicated — and with us, it isn’t. Whether you’re dealing with a planned upgrade or an emergency breakdown, here’s what the process looks like from start to finish:
WHY CHOOSE TEMPORARY HVAC HIRE?
Heating and cooling are critical services across a wide range of sectors: education, healthcare, manufacturing, logistics, hospitality, and construction — just to name a few. When these systems fail, the consequences can include:
- Health and safety risks
- Lost revenue and downtime
- Product spoilage or environmental damage
- Breach of legal and operational compliance
- Damaged brand reputation
Even when the issue isn’t urgent, like during planned works or refurbishments, you still need a fast and professional solution. That’s where temporary boiler hire and chiller hire come in — and why having a trusted provider is essential.

2. SITE SURVEY ARRANGEMENT
Once we understand your situation, we’ll schedule a free site survey with one of our sales engineers. This is crucial to designing a tailored, efficient, and safe solution.
3. DETAILED SITE SURVEY
We carry out a thorough, on-site technical and operational assessment covering:
- Heating/Cooling load requirements
- Plant location (including ducting and pipework routes)
- Fuel supply & electrical infrastructure
- Access and delivery logistics
- Health and safety compliance
- Security and on-site contact coordination
Every survey includes bespoke plans for:
- Boilers
- Chillers
- Air handling units
- Fuel tanks
- Buffer tanks
- Ancillaries like ducting, hoses, or scaffolding if needed
We’ll also review requirements for contingency planning if you want a permanent hire-readiness plan on file.
4. OPERATIONAL SIGN-OFF
Before sending a quote, our internal teams confirm all aspects are feasible — including logistics, kit availability, and resource allocation. This step ensures there are no unexpected changes or shortages once your hire is confirmed.
5. BESPOKE QUOTATION
You’ll receive a clear quotation outlining:
- Exact kit required
- Hire duration and pricing
- Installation and delivery costs
- Maintenance, fuel management, and monitoring options
- Timeframes and access requirements
There’s no obligation — and we’ll always be happy to explain why we’ve proposed a certain system/solution.
6. CLIENT REVIEW & FOLLOW-UP
Your dedicated contact will follow up to answer questions and make any changes. Whether it’s changing the hire duration or reviewing placement plans, this step ensures you’re happy before moving forward.
7. ACCEPTANCE & ACCOUNT SETUP
Once accepted, we finalise the agreement and (if applicable) set up your account. New clients will need to complete a simple onboarding form, and we’ll run any necessary credit checks for hire terms.
8. DELIVERY, INSTALLATION & MONITORING
On your agreed installation date, our engineers will arrive with the plant, equipment, and documentation needed to deliver a professional, safe, and fully operational system.
Your boiler or chiller will be installed, tested, and handed over by qualified OFTEC Climate Solution engineers.
Every live system includes:
- Trend BMS (for boilers) – remote alerts, diagnostics, and temperature adjustments
- Trane Connect (for chillers) – real-time performance tracking
- Telemetry & fuel monitoring (if required)
- Maintenance & support contact details
If needed, we also provide fuel management, ensuring automatic top-ups and 24/7 monitoring of tank levels.

If you’ve created a contingency plan with us in advance, the steps above become even faster. Simply reference your unique plan number, and we’ll:
– Dispatch your pre-agreed plant
