AC rental
Cooling for the weeks you need it. Gone when you don't.
Renting beats buying when the need is short: a brutal fortnight, a pregnancy summer, exams, an event, a heat-sensitive visitor. We deliver, you stay cool, we collect. That's the whole deal.
When renting is genuinely the smarter call
The two-week problem
Most UK heat emergencies last days to weeks. Buying a £500 unit for one bad fortnight — then storing it for 50 weeks — is how cupboards fill up.
Renting? Moving soon?
Tenancies end, house moves happen. A rental unit never becomes one more thing to shift, sell or abandon.
Events & one-offs
Weddings in marquees, pop-up kitchens, exam halls, film shoots — short, sharp cooling needs with a hard end date.

Before you reserve — the honest print
Rental launches with delivery zones
Hire needs local logistics, so it starts in our confirmed delivery areas and expands with them. Reservations elsewhere register priority interest for your postcode.
Peak weeks will be finite
A rental fleet is real physical stock. If a heatwave empties it, priority reservations are the queue — that's the honest version of 'limited availability'.
Deposits & terms published first
Deposit amounts, damage terms and minimum periods will be published clearly before anyone pays a rental fee. No surprises in the small print.
Common questions
How fast will portable AC delivery be?
Our launch target for planned delivery zones is next-day or chosen-day delivery of pre-configured portable units. Exact promises depend on confirmed depot locations — we'll publish real delivery windows per area before anyone pays for a unit.
What will a portable unit cost?
Guide ranges are on our pricing page: decent portable units typically land between £300 and £700 depending on room size, with our target range £349–£649 including delivery. Final prices are confirmed before you commit — your £10 is credited whatever you choose.
Can I return a unit if it's not right?
Yes. UK consumer law gives you 14 days to change your mind on distance purchases, and we plan a fair returns process on top of that. Returns policy specifics will be confirmed alongside launch pricing — and they'll be published before you're asked to buy anything.
The honest bit
What your £10 does — and what it doesn't
