Chiller Hire

What areas do Cross Rental Services Group cover?
Through our two distinct divisions - we can supply HVAC and temperature control units, through Cross Hire Services (IE), and, in the UK - Cross Rental, and Acclimatise; and refrigeration and other catering equipment to the UK and Ireland, through Cross Rental Services - Refrigeration & Catering, trading as Refrigeration Rentals Ltd (IE) and Fridge Rentals (UK).

How long can I rent for?
We offer flexible rental contracts, which can range from a week to 12 months and beyond depending on the type of product you wish to hire. If you get in touch with us, a member of our sales team will tailor a rental package that suits your exact needs.

What types of cooling equipment do you offer?
We provide chillers, AHUs, portable air conditioners, evaporative coolers, direct and indirect cooling units. Our range suits everything from small offices to large industrial sites, and from room cooling to large process cooling solutions.

How do I choose the right cooling solution?
Use our handy calculator tool to determine your cooling requirements, for smaller jobs needing a portable cooling solution; but for chillers and bigger industrial projects it is best contact our team for expert advice, based on your specific business needs.

Why rent a chiller unit instead of buying?
Renting an industrial chiller is a cost-effective and flexible solution that allows your business to quickly meet temporary or fluctuating cooling needs without a large upfront investment. It provides you with access to our modern equipment, includes maintenance, and we offer a rapid response to emergencies or unexpected breakdowns.

Can you deliver nationwide?
Yes, we deliver across Ireland and provide 24/7 support for emergency installations.

Are your technicians qualified?
Absolutely. Our operations team includes F-Gas and RGII certified engineers for reliable, compliant installations.

Are there any up-front costs to pay?
Yes, there are. We require full payment prior to delivery if you hire a fridge on a short-term basis (up to 12 weeks). For longer-term rental contracts, we require the first month's payments plus full transport costs in advance. If you are a new customer ordering for the first time on a long term contract, we require the first three (3) months' payments in full plus full transport costs in advance of delivery.

Is insurance included within a rental contract?
Yes – with our optional damage waiver insurance. This small extra charge can be taken at the hire contract stage and it will cover you against any accidental damage (beyond standard wear & tear) that might occur during the hire period.

Will I be supplied with brand new hire equipment?
We can’t promise brand new equipment to all customers (unless specified at quote stage), however all the hire equipment we provide is high quality, fully cleaned, repaired and tested prior to delivery.

Can I purchase HVAC equipment from you?
We are primarily a rental company, but we do offer a range of portable units for purchase. If you have a specific request, we can source it. Contact our sales department directly to discuss your needs and to receive a quotation.

Where can I find out the exact specifications of my equipment?
We include specification sheets for each product online and we also send these with the original quotation. If you can’t find the information you require then please speak to a member of our technical team.

I can’t find the product I wish to hire on your website. Can you help?
Our website shows our core range of rental products, but do call us if you can’t find what you’re looking for and we’ll be happy to discuss your exact needs with you.

What is the procedure for logging service calls?
You will find our dedicated service number on your hire equipment. Call this number and provide us with the unit serial number and we’ll arrange for a local engineer to come and investigate the problem if it can’t be resolved over the phone.

Can you provide any advice prior to delivery of the hire equipment?
Before we deliver any equipment, please let us know if there are any obstructions that could pose a problem – e.g. parking restrictions for articulated vehicles; narrow doorways; steps, lifts or stairs etc. If you provide us with these details at the order stage, we’ll make sure your delivery goes as smoothly as possible.
