Global children’s charity seek temporary cooling equipment

Posted Date 21/07/2017

When an international children’s charity required emergency cooling for one of their London offices, Andrews Air Conditioning Hire was on hand to help.

The rapid rise in temperature left dozens of workers exposed to unbearable working conditions. Our client contacted us regarding a practical solution that would successfully provide comfort cooling for a sizeable working space.

After a visit from one of our local specialists, our response was to deploy a total of seven Polar Wind portable air conditioners. The short-term units were delivered to the site within a few hours and were up and running the same day, dispersing hot air out the window.

Scientists claim that air conditioners leave women cold

Posted Date 14/08/2015

In the summer of 2014, Andrews Air Conditioning conducted a thorough survey that revealed approximately 80% of people are unhappy with their office temperature. Deeper analysis of the results suggested that women are twice as likely as men to feel cold – with scientific research now finally proving just why that is the case.

Scientists have discovered that indoor climate control systems have been designed to suit the metabolic rate of an average middle-aged man. This therefore means that women are likely to feel colder than their male counterparts at work with numerous units across the country overestimating people’s thermal comfort levels.
