Spot Coolers

Compact air-cooled units designed to provide localised cooling in occupied spaces. Perfect for retail units, offices, server rooms or staff areas. Simple to set up, with no ducting or permanent install required.


Our range includes evaporative coolers and portable exhaust tube air conditioners — ideal for temporary spot cooling in warm internal areas. Evaporative models use chilled water to reduce ambient temperature, while our refrigerant AC units direct cold air where it’s needed most via flexible exhaust tubing.

Industrial Drying

Ventilation is a key part of drying in construction or flood remediation. Combine with heaters or dehumidifiers to boost air turnover and support moisture evaporation for fast results. Our systems help improve turnaround on-site and reduce moisture risks.


Carpet dryers, air movers and small axial fans help direct airflow across wet floors and surfaces, helping minimise downtime and reduce mould risk. These are essential tools for property managers, FM companies and restoration contractors dealing with water damage or programme delays.

Extractor Fans

For fume, dust or stale air removal in live environments or enclosed spaces, like basements. These units help reduce airborne risk during works or emergencies. Designed for use with flexible ducting, these fans remove hot air, odours, dust or fumes .


We supply 110V axial and centrifugal extractors that meet site power safety standards and are ideal for short- or long-term use. These units are regularly used during refurbishment works, cleaning, or maintenance where enclosed ventilation is essential.

Frequently Asked Ventilation Hire Questions

Equipment & Applications

What type of fan do I need for my warehouse or production space?
Fan selection depends on space volume, air change requirements, and use case. Axial fans are best for general airflow or people cooling, while centrifugal or ductable fans are suited to extraction and directional ventilation. We offer models from 3,600 to 25,000 m³/hr airflow — with guidance on how best to position them.
Call 1800 247 266 if you’d like help sizing your space or choosing a fan type.

What size fan do I need for my space?
Fan selection depends on the space volume, heat load, layout, and required air changes per hour. We stock a wide range of fan types and can help you choose the right model for effective airflow.

Are spot coolers suitable for public-facing or retail environments?
Spot coolers are portable units that offer localised cooling for people or equipment. They’re commonly used in salons, server rooms, retail floors, changing rooms and restaurants. Most plug into a standard socket and require minimal floor space.

Can I use spot coolers in occupied rooms?
Spot coolers are commonly used in retail units, changing rooms, offices and IT spaces. They’re quiet, efficient, and require no ductwork or building access.

What is an AHU and when would I need one?
An Air Handling Unit (AHU) is used to condition and move large volumes of air within a building or production space. It may include filters, heating/cooling coils, and fans, and is typically ducted. They’re ideal for manufacturing zones, logistics depots, large event halls or temporary buildings where airflow needs to be managed at scale.

Do you supply extractors for fumes or odours?
We offer a selection of extractor fans for use in site cabins, event spaces or plant rooms. These help remove fumes, smells, smoke or general stale air. They’re used extensively in refurb projects or enclosed areas needing airflow turnover.

What’s the difference between an extractor fan and a positive pressure fan?
Extractor fans remove air (often dust- or fume-laden) from a space. Positive pressure fans push fresh, clean air into a space to control contamination. Both are used for safe air management in sensitive or enclosed environments.

Cooling Fan Hire

What type of cooling fans do you have for hire?
We have a wide variety of cooling fans for hire at Cross Hire Services. You can choose from smaller models that are easy to transport and move to different locations, while we also have larger, industrial-sized units. Some of our cooling fans also come fitted with wheels for ease of movement on site.
You can also hire a fan that extracts harmful fumes and substances, providing exceptional ventilation for large indoor areas.

What’s the benefit of hiring a cooling fan?
The huge benefit to hiring a cooling or ventilation fan from Cross Hire Services is you can use it for the short or long term – whatever suits you best. You can also benefit from the exceptional expertise, knowledge and support that we offer throughout the entire process – from the initial hiring stage to the return of the unit.
If you ever have any issues or questions about our cooling fans, we’ll always be there to answer any queries.

How do I hire a cooling fan?
At Cross Hire Services, we like to make it easy for everybody to hire exactly what they need. If you know the exact model of cooling fan you’d like to hire, you can simply request a quote on our website and we’ll be in touch with all of the details.
Alternatively, you can get in touch with us to discuss everything. From there, we’ll set up the rental.

Drying & Environmental Control

Can ventilation help with drying in construction or remediation?
Effective airflow is key to moisture evaporation. Our ventilation systems are frequently paired with indirect-fired heaters or dehumidifiers to support drying during construction, flood restoration, or concrete curing. This combination helps reduce delays and ensures your site stays on schedule.

Can I combine ventilation with drying?
Absolutely — ventilation supports faster drying in construction, restoration and industrial environments. We offer combined hire packages including extractors, heaters and dehumidifiers.

Setup & Support

Do you provide setup or positioning assistance for large-scale ventilation?
For projects that require multiple units or ducting, we can provide setup support on delivery. This includes AHUs, extractors and combined heating/ventilation setups. If your team needs help integrating these with your site layout, just let us know when booking.

Can you help design a ventilation system for my site?
Absolutely. Our team will assess your space and advise on the right combination of fans, ducting, and filtration. We support both emergency and planned works.

Delivery & Power

Do you deliver and install?
We offer nationwide delivery and, where required, can assist with positioning, ducting, and setup to get your system running quickly.

How quickly can I get equipment on site?
We offer next-day delivery across Ireland and emergency response within hours where possible. Our service includes site setup, filter checks, and ongoing support.

Do you supply 110V ventilation fans?
We stock a wide range of 110V fans and extractors designed for safe use on construction sites and temporary works. We also have 230V and 3-phase options depending on your available power.

Do you supply ducting with the fan hire?
Yes — we supply compatible ducting in various lengths and diameters to route airflow exactly where you need it.
