When heating or cooling systems experience a fault in public sector buildings, it can cause serious disruption. Whether it’s a school, library, leisure centre or council office, the building still needs to stay open — safely and comfortably — for the people using it.
At Ideal Heat Solutions, we help local authorities and councils across the South East keep services running. From boiler hire to air conditioning units and chillers, we provide fully supported heating and cooling hire that’s quick to arrange, straightforward to install, and easy to manage.
Why DO Councils and Local Authorities Use Hire Solutions?
Hiring heating or cooling equipment is a smart option when you don’t want to commit to buying or can’t afford downtime. It gives you the flexibility to deal with whatever’s happening on site, whether that’s planned work, a system breakdown or a temporary event.
Common reasons to hire include:
- Cover during planned maintenance or refurbishments
- Emergency support if your boiler, chiller or AC fails
- Extra help during extreme heat or cold spells
- Temporary heating or cooling for pop-up or modular setups
- Making sure public services can keep going without delays
We deliver, install, fuel and manage everything so your team can focus on the day job.
Offices, Libraries & OTHER Civic Buildings
Public-facing buildings like town halls, council offices, museums, libraries and community centres need a safe and comfortable environment for both staff and visitors.
We support these spaces with:
- Boiler hire during plant room refurbishments
- Portable air conditioning for meeting rooms, reception desks and open-plan spaces
- Chillers for IT rooms, storage areas and archive spaces
- Evaporative coolers where ventilation allows
Everything is installed cleanly and professionally, using energy-efficient equipment suited to occupied areas.
Care Homes
Heating and hot water are critical in care environments. A boiler failure can have serious consequences, especially for vulnerable residents.
WE SUPPLY:
- Temporary boilers – sized to meet care home demand
- Low-noise air conditioning units & heaters – won’t disturb residents
- Fuel monitoring & top-up services – for longer-term support
We know how important compliance is in these settings. Our systems are installed safely, hygienically and with performance monitoring built in.
Schools, Colleges & Education Trusts
When systems go down in schools, lessons and exams can’t always continue as planned. We help schools avoid disruption with heating and cooling solutions that are easy to put in place and safe for use around students and staff.
WE SUPPORT SCHOOLS WITH:
- Boiler hire during upgrades or emergency repairs
- Air conditioning for exam rooms, ICT suites & classrooms
- Portable units for smaller modular setups & staff areas
Installations are timed to avoid disruption, often completed out of hours, at weekends or during holidays.
Leisure Centres, Pools & Sports Facilities
Leisure centres need reliable heating and cooling to keep people comfortable and facilities safe.
We support these sites with:
- Packaged boilers to heat swimming pools & changing areas
- Chillers for gym floors, studios & event spaces
- Evaporative coolers for large exercise zones
All equipment is fully maintained and monitored. If something needs adjusting or refuelling, we handle it.
Pop-Up Sites & Temporary Buildings
Polling stations, mobile health units, event spaces and other temporary public buildings still need to meet comfort and safety standards. Hire makes this possible without the need for permanent plant.
We provide:
- Easy-to-install portable air conditioning & heaters
- Flexible hire periods to suit your needs
- Fast setup & removal, handled by our engineers
These systems are ideal when you need a straightforward solution that gets the job done.
