Why Chillers Fail in Extreme Heat
Reduced Efficiency:
Heat rejection becomes more challenging as air temperatures rise, particularly for air-cooled systems.
Compressor Overload:
Extended runtimes and elevated loads increase the risk of burnout.
High-Pressure Trips:
Excessive heat can trigger shutdowns to protect system components.
Lack of Maintenance:
Blocked coils, low refrigerant, and dirty filters can tip a struggling system over the edge.
As summer heats up, your cooling system may be overwhelmed. The result? Slower production, potential equipment failures, and costly downtime. If your chiller is ageing, don’t wait for an emergency. Take proactive steps with a temporary chiller rental to ensure efficiency during peak heat.
Use cases
Engineered Cooling for Dairy Dispatch Chill Store
Cross Rental Services delivered a fully managed temporary cooling solution to a London dairy facing rising temperatures in its dispatch area during peak summer. With strict 4°C compliance required and CapEx limited, our team ensured consistent cooling through a pre-planned seasonal installation.
- 150kW nominal chiller with 2 x 50kW low temperature AHUs
- Designed to deliver an additional 80kW of cooling to maintain <4°C
- Deployed before warm weather for continuous operation
- Proven resilience during ambient condition exceeding 35°C
Molson Coors Brewery:
Scalable Cooling for a Critical Brewing Process
Cross Rental Services delivered a fully managed, temporary cooling package to Molson Coors Brewery — starting with 500kW at -4°C and scaling to 1MW as demand increased. The project’s success led to a second commission at AB InBev Magor Brewery.
- 500kW chiller scaled to 1MW as ambient temperatures rose
- Low Loss Header installed for future system expansion
- Site-specific RAMS developed to meet strict brewery standards
- Coordinated delivery with cooling contractor and end-user
Low Temperature Chill Store Solution for Pork Pie Manufacturer
Cross Rental Services were tasked with delivering a low temperature storage solution to support capacity expansion plans. The requirement was to hold product at a consistent 3–4°C within a semi-permanent chill store, ensuring food safety, product quality, and operational efficiency.
Working closely with the client, our team designed a bespoke cooling system confirmed through an on-site survey. This project involved careful coordination with multiple contractors, requiring a flexible and collaborative installation schedule.
- Low Temperature AHUs with 40m air throw to ensure even cooling and eliminate hot spots
- Insulated pipework for optimal thermal performance and efficiency
- Remote Monitoring System providing live performance data, alerts, and trend analysis
- Comprehensive servicing package for a turnkey managed solution
Targeted Process Cooling to Eliminate Production Bottlenecks
Cross Rental Services provided a targeted cooling solution to a plastics manufacturer facing frequent shutdowns caused by an overheating gearbox. By separating the moulder from the current loop and installing a dedicated chiller, we guaranteed continuous, reliable performance and reinstated full production capacity.
- Standalone 30kW chiller with integral pump, tank, and bypass
- Internal system installed to isolate and protect critical equipment
- On-demand chilled water supply for consistent gearbox cooling
- Resolved overheating issues without impacting the wider process loop
- Enabled 24/7 production by removing the need for regular cooling pauses
