About Dry Air Coolers
Aqua offer a range of dry air coolers for hire. Our dry air coolers – often called air blast coolers – are available to hire immediately, on a short, medium, or long-term contract.
Typically used for fluid temperatures of 30°C+, dry air coolers are a great way to achieve efficient cooling. Operating costs are very low as there’s no need for power hungry compressor cooling. They tend to be quick and simple to install but our hire team will always be on hand to help you, from initial product specification, through to installation and final configuration.

Energy Efficient Dry Air Cooler Hire
Dry air coolers, as the name suggests, use dry air to regulate the temperature of your process cooling water, instead of a refrigerant circuit. They’re popular as an alternative to cooling towers since they operate in a closed water circuit, reducing the risk of legionella. They can also be used alongside a process chiller to achieve free cooling. Free cooling can dramatically reduce operating costs, minimising energy usage and your businesses’ carbon footprint.
The dry air coolers within our hire fleet deliver a highly effective, reliable performance. They include energy efficient, EC fans, and are robust in design, so can stand up admirably to the harshest of industrial environments.

Hire Solution Solves Critical Cooling Dilemma
For a medical equipment supplier, our teams’ technical design ability was the driving force behind selecting Aqua Hire as their chosen service provider.
Our client, based in the Midlands, specialises in the supply of medical equipment including MRI scanners. Towards the end of 2020, due to changes in legislation resulting from Brexit, the customer bought forward a delivery of twelve MRI machines. The scanners were stored in a warehouse before needing to be tested and transported to the end user client. Aqua were tasked with designing and supplying a temporary cooling system so that the equipment could be safely and reliably tested.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a dry air cooler and when would I hire one?
A dry air cooler rejects heat from a fluid circuit to the ambient air using fans and coils without using water or refrigerant. You would typically hire one to supplement or replace a failed cooler, handle increased process loads, or provide temporary cooling during planned maintenance.
How does a dry air cooler differ from an adiabatic cooler?
The main difference is water usage. A dry air cooler uses only ambient air to reject heat while an adiabatic cooler adds a water pre-cooling stage to improve performance in hot weather. Dry air coolers are simpler to set up but may be less effective at very high ambient temperatures.
What is the typical lead time for dry air cooler hire delivery?
Aqua can typically deliver and commission a hire dry air cooler within 24 to 48 hours across the UK. For emergency requirements call us on 0333 004 4433 and we will do our best to get equipment to you as fast as possible.
