Planning

The first step in determining your cooling or heating rental need is usually to find out the dimensions of the space you want to cool or heat.  After this is determined the ceiling height is necessary to come up with a volume.

Then the construction of the walls, floor and ceiling are needed. Next step is to quantify the internal loading of this space, normally this is lights and people and maybe the kind if activity that’s expected in this environment. After that the expected temperature of the condition space and the exterior space.  From this information your La Brea sales engineer can estimate the equipment size you need to rent.

You may also arrange a site visit with your friendly La Brea sales engineer to do a rental evaluation for you.

Areas: (in square feet)or (width and height)

Walls

Floor

Ceiling

Construction (examples are: tent, wood stud wall,  masonry or glass) and thickness

Lights (watts or # fixtures, type of lighting)

People (sitting, working, dancing….)

Temperature typically 72F is a comfortable temperature for people and depending on the location and time of day and year you can determine the outdoor temperature.

Other information required

Power – The larger portable units require 208v/230v,  single or 3 phase power and higher amperage service.  Consideration of  the existence, source and location of this power

is necessary to be able to power up the unit. Your building electrician should be able to tell you what power sources are available.

Hot air exhaust – These units have a hot air exhaust flex duct that needs to be connected to either existing return or exhaust air duct to reject it outside the space to be cooled.

A window can also be utilized to accomplish this.

Access – Although these units are on wheels and can be easily rolled into place they are heavy.  If the location for the unit is up any stairs it maybe necessary to have a mover to

place the unit.
