In parts of the North and Northeast, many public buildings do not even have air conditioning. But when you operate a retail store in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, air conditioning is a necessity. That’s why when your air conditioning fails, it’s an emergency. Who should you call for temporary air conditioner rental? Rescue Cooling!
Emergency Air Conditioning
Air conditioning did not become widely available in the U.S. until after World War II. It’s hard for us to imagine what life was like in the Dallas/Fort Worth area before that. Undoubtedly, those who can remember it don’t want to return to those days. Here in east Texas, it starts getting hot in April and the dial moves right to unbearable by June. Full relief doesn’t come until November. That’s a long cooling season
Being able to control the climate in your home or at your business is a tremendous advantage. Comfortable temperatures allow you to work better and more efficiently, so that when you relax, you feel more restored.
No AC, No Customers
But even if comfortable temperatures weren’t important to you, they’re important to your clients. No one wants to shop in a store that feels hot, stuffy and sticky inside. Whether your air conditioner is broken or just working poorly, not being able to cool your space will affect your business.
You have likely experienced it yourself — you walk into a store or restaurant and realize their AC isn’t working, and you turn right around and walk out again. It’s not like a brownout or power outage where all business are in the same predicament; when it’s just your AC that isn’t working, your customers will leave and take their business to your competitors. You can’t afford to let this happen.
Further, depending on what type of retail store you own, the lack of air conditioning could damage your products. If you sell cut flowers or live plants, for instance, or candy or chocolate, all of these could be ruined by high temperatures.
Humidity can be just as damaging. It can warp and wrinkle paper products and even affect the operation of your business’s computers. If any of your employees suffer from asthma or other health conditions that worsen in hot or humid conditions, they won’t be able to work without AC.
Waiting for an HVAC Contractor
If you own the building your business is in, you likely have an HVAC contractor that you work with for repairs and routine maintenance. But even the most conscientious contractor may not be able to come help you immediately. You may have to wait hours — or even days — for an HVAC contractor. If you don’t own the building and you rent it instead, you are at the mercy of your landlord who may have the same situation with their HVAC contractor.
HVAC contractors in Dallas/Fort Worth respond to so many emergencies that they sometimes can’t get to them all in one day. But if you wait and do nothing, you’ll lose customers. The solution is temporary air conditioning rental.

Occasionally, a retail store may need long-term portable AC rental when they are undergoing renovations. The plastic sheeting that contractors hang as a temporary wall is hardly sufficient to keep in your air conditioning. You may need to boost your cooling power with a portable unit.
Usually portable air conditioner rentals for retail stores are not long-term, but we want you to know that should the need ever arise, we’re here for you.
