A chiller cools water or glycol. An air handler uses that chilled water to blow cooled air into a room, hall or production space. In short: the chiller creates the cooling, and the air handler distributes it through the air.

Renting an air handler is ideal when you need temporary cooling or heating, such as during an emergency, planned maintenance, seasonal peak, renovation, delayed installation, or pilot project. It gives you the capacity you need without a long-term investment.

Coolworld experts will identify the right air handler solution for your operation.

What is an air handler?

An air handler is a climate-control unit that distributes cooled or heated air into a space using chilled or hot water from a chiller, heat pump, or boiler. Air handlers are used when reliable temperature control is needed for people, products, or processes, delivering conditioned airflow exactly where it is required.

A rented air handler provides a flexible solution for temporary cooling and heating applications in buildings, industrial facilities, and project environments. While air handlers manage conditioned airflow, they can also support environments where air dryers and compressed air drying systems are used as part of wider industrial operations.

Where and why is an air handler needed?

An air handler is used when controlled airflow is required to distribute cooling or heating within a building, production area, storage facility, or temporary space. Often used where stable temperatures are essential for people, products, and processes, such as food production, pharmaceuticals, logistics, industrial manufacturing, data centres, healthcare facilities, offices, events, and temporary buildings.

They are also used in facilities where industrial air dryers processes help maintain product quality and operational performance. Air handlers are often deployed during HVAC breakdowns, maintenance, capacity shortages, seasonal peaks, renovations, delayed equipment deliveries, and temporary backup situations.
