Your Heating Hire Options
Cross Hire Services expansive range of portable heaters suit almost any short-term heating requirement. Our emergency heater hire range includes the most complete choice of fuel types and formats. This means we can provide for numerous heating uses straight from stock.
From 3kW to 220kW, there is a heating solution for everyone. We have the leading hire fleet in Ireland, while our team has a fantastic amount of experience at their disposal. For more heavy duty projects, meanwhile, our bespoke packages can combine your heater with a thermostat for total temperature control.
Direct-Fired Heaters
Our direct-fired heaters are often ideal for heating large and small spaces alike, as well as being easy to set up and install. The modest, straightforward design of these portable heaters means you get a large amount of hot air at a relatively low cost.
You can also choose between gas or diesel-fuelled options. Because of the way direct-fired heaters create heat, means you should not use them in areas with a poor level of ventilation or enclosed spaces. These heaters work by using fuel to heat the air. An open flame inside the unit warms incoming air before it’s exhausted.
The main features of our direct-fired heaters include:
Indirect-Fired Heaters
The indirect-fired heater range at Cross Hire Services is ideal for the short-term and long-term heating of large spaces and marquees. Just like our direct-fired heaters, this range includes both diesel and gas models. Unlike their direct counterparts, however, indirect-fired heaters will use an enclosed chamber to heat the air. They do not use a naked flame in that process, which means you can duct the hot air safely.
To keep these units running smoothly, we also supply external bunded fuel tanks for fuel for top-ups as required, as well as any emergency call-out, so you’re never left short in a pinch. We also offer a complete range of accessories, including ducting, thermostats and extension power cables, as well as terminal plugs.
The main features of our indirect-fired heaters include:
Electric Heaters
At Cross Hire Services, we have a wide range of electric heaters for you to rent, from electric fan heaters to oil-filled radiators and more. With power up to 3kW and running from a 13amp plug, these units work well in offices and smaller sites. Due to their size, they’re also ideally suited for domestic use.
One of our more popular fan heaters is the Hot Block 25. It is so versatile that it can slide in anywhere and deliver instant heat. It’s small but very powerful and pushes out a huge volume of warm, dry air both quietly and efficiently. It also features innovative reflector plates that prevent radiant heat from damaging nearby surfaces while in use.
Our ceramic and infrared heaters – like the 3kW Infrared Radiant Heater Warm Glow – work in a slightly different way, though. That’s because their design means these units will heat up whatever they are close to. This makes them ideal for specialist applications, such as garages, workshops or warehouses.
Our infrared heaters warm up incredibly quickly and work in total silence, producing volumes of warm, odourless, condensation-free air.
Our range of electric heaters includes:
Three-Phase Heaters
If you need a heavy-duty electric heater, Cross Hire Services can help. We offer a range of three-phase fan heaters, including single units with power ranging between 6kW and 42kW.
Three-phase heaters – like the 18kW 3P Electric Heater TEH 100 – excel in spaces or locations where gas or diesel units are undesirable. As long as you have a three-phase connection, these heaters are simple to install and will provide warm, clean air without fuss.

Direct-fired heaters are best used in areas where there’s plenty of ventilation. This means factories, warehouses, loading bays, and farm buildings are the best places to use them. As the fuel burns, these heaters produce a lot of hot air, so they need plenty of ventilation and to be as far from combustible materials as possible.
