Keeping an electric car showroom cool with temporary air conditioning

Posted Date 19/09/2023

When a leading supplier of Uber’s electric vehicles in London needed cooling for their new showroom, traditional HVAC solutions like ducted or split air conditioning systems weren’t feasible. The constant coming and going of visitors and vehicles meant major construction wasn’t practical on the showroom floor. Our temporary air conditioning solutions provided the ideal fix.

After being approached about their unique cooling needs, we promptly responded with an on-site survey and same-day quote outlining our proposed solutions. Knowing the limitations of the space, we suggested using two high-powered Cyclones evaporative coolers along with two portable Polar Winds air conditioning units to deliver targeted, efficient spot cooling.

The Cyclone DX, a fully portable evaporative cooler, is designed to generate a constant flow of refreshing, crisp air via the evaporation of water or ice. Bringing comfort to any environment, these units are perfect for retail stores, where they are commonly used.

Enhancing exam room comfort

They say the destiny of a country rests with its students, and at Andrews Sykes, we are playing our part in ensuring the next generation reach the heights they are capable of! We are dedicated to providing innovative and reliable cooling solutions to meet the diverse needs of our clients. Recently, an all-boys school contacted us about hiring some Polar Wind Plus units – a requirement we were able to effortlessly fulfil on the same day we received an enquiry.

A common challenge during exam periods is maintaining an optimal temperature in the exam room without causing distractions. As summer approaches, the rooms in the school were becoming hotter than expected. With 27 students expected to take their exams simultaneously, the school needed a cooling solution that would efficiently cool the air while maintaining the comfort and concentration levels of pupils.

Don’t sweat it! The benefits of air conditioning hire, explained

Why consider hiring an air conditioning unit this summer?

As the summer months approach, facilities managers and decision makers start to worry about how they will keep their staff and customers cool in hot weather. One option that is often overlooked is hiring an air conditioning unit. If you only need an air conditioner for a short period of time, due to fleeting season demand, for instance, then hiring may represent a better choice than committing to a purchase. With a rental agreement, you’re not tied into a long-term commitment and need not be concerned with storage, installation, or other potential perceived inconveniences.

Six in ten Brits demand air conditioning while working from home, survey finds

Posted Date 31/08/2021

According to a recent study, more than 60% of Brits want their bosses to provide air conditioning while working from home.

On average, productivity is said to decrease by a third during hot temperatures, with 44% of the 2,000 adults asked admitting they struggle to stay on top of their workload when the mercury soars.

Two in five respondents actively seek a different room or area to work in a bid to overcome warmer conditions, while a quarter confessed to sitting near an open fridge or freezer!

A similar proportion of those surveyed have previously refused to work when the heat has been too extreme, with a temperature of 28⁰C commonly cited as being too hot for general exertion.
