A great end to a busy summer

Posted Date 23/10/2023

What a way to wrap up a hectic summer at Andrews Sykes! Over a period of three days, our dedicated engineers and driving team delivered 200 Polar Wind portable air conditioning units to the Marriott Hotel in Central London.

The main cooling system in the hotel had stopped working earlier in the week, resulting in a flood of orders from the hotel: 50 units on Tuesday, another 50 on Wednesday, and 100 more on Thursday. Our team rallied to fulfil the entire 200 unit order before the weekend, ensuring the hotel could continue hosting guests in comfort.

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 weekend prior, the show had to cancel two performances due to the scorching heat on the stage. It was evident that immediate action was needed to ensure the show could go on. And thanks to us, it did!

A renowned British holiday park in Kent faced a major challenge while preparing for its 25th annual event – inadequate ventilation in the dance hall with a heatwave thought to be approaching. To combat this, the event organisers turned to Andrews Sykes for a suitable air conditioning hire solution.

Our team conducted two site visits well in advance to plan and execute the perfect cooling strategy. Early engagement allowed for a comprehensive assessment of the venue’s needs, ensuring a successful installation. A follow-up visit one week before the event helped to finalise enabling works and equipment setup, addressing any concerns promptly.
