The same units go by different names depending on who is asking. Packaged boiler hire, mobile boiler hire, boiler plant hire and temporary boiler rental all describe what is on this page: a self-contained boiler that arrives on a trailer or in a container, connects to your existing system, and goes away again when you have finished with it.
Every unit is hired with its boiler, burner and a standard pump as a minimum, and delivered, connected and commissioned by our own engineers. Ancillaries are added to suit the site.
3,000 litre bunded oil tank
Where a site has no gas supply, or the oil-fired unit needs more than a day of running between fills, we hire a bunded tank alongside the boiler. It is delivered on the same visit and sited next to the unit.
- 3,000 litre capacity
- Fully bunded
- Delivered with the boiler
- Craned or trailered into position
Choosing a boiler: common questions
If yours is not here, ring and ask. You will get a straight answer rather than a callback form.
It depends on your building’s heat load rather than its floor area. The quickest way to size it is from your existing boiler’s rating: if the permanent plant coming offline is 90kW, a 90kW hire unit will hold the building. As a rough guide, the 90kW suits surgeries, small offices and larger domestic properties; the 250kW suits most commercial and industrial buildings; and beyond that the 300kW to 600kW units cover it, with packaged plant rooms above that.
Every unit is hired with the boiler, burner and a standard pump. Flexible hoses, bunded fuel tanks, gas pipes, booster pumps, plate heat exchangers, headers, manifolds and pipework adapters are added to suit the connection and quoted with the unit. Delivery, installation and commissioning are quoted against the site.
Yes. Where a building’s demand exceeds a single unit we run multiple boilers in parallel through a header, or supply a packaged temporary plant room. Both are specified per project rather than off a price list.
Fuel is normally the customer’s responsibility. We tell you the expected consumption up front so it can be budgeted, and we can supply bunded fuel tanks and arrange the first fill where that is easier for you.
From a single breakdown weekend through to programmes running several months while a permanent plant room is rebuilt. Longer hires are priced more favourably, so tell us the likely duration when you enquire even if it is only an estimate.
