Heater Hire London

The output (kW) is how much heat the unit produces. As a rough guide, a 3 kW 110V fan heater suits cold construction sites and site cabins running on 110V site supply. A 9 kW electric heater suits cold work zones in mid-size spaces. A 15 kW unit produces more heat for larger or colder spaces. A 40 kW industrial electric heater suits warehouses and larger commercial spaces. The right choice depends on space size, ceiling height, insulation and the available power supply — call us with the details and we’ll match the output.

It depends on the heater. Construction sites in the UK commonly run on 110V site supply via a 32A commando connection — that’s the supply for our 3 kW 110V fan heaters. Higher-output electric heaters (typically 9 kW and above) often require 3-phase (400 / 415V) supply or a higher-amperage single-phase supply, depending on the model. Smaller plug-in electric heaters and oil-filled radiators run on a standard 240V 13A socket. If you’re not sure which supply you have, call 020 3375 4048 and we’ll help you check before booking.

Yes — all of Hireload’s heater hire range is electric. That means no combustion fumes, no fuel storage on site and no fuel logistics. The range covers electric fan heaters, oil-filled radiators, infrared radiant heaters and industrial electric heaters from 3 kW up to 40 kW output.

Warehouses, large workshops and larger commercial spaces typically use a 40 kW industrial electric heater on a 3-phase (400 / 415V) supply. Depending on the layout, more than one heater is sometimes used to zone the space rather than a single very large unit. Confirm the available power supply, the space size and access before booking.

For UK construction sites running on 110V site supply, the standard option is a 3 kW 110V fan heater connecting via a 32A commando connection. It’s designed for cold work zones, site cabins and refurb projects. Always check the product specification before booking, and confirm the 32A commando connection is available on site.

Infrared radiant heaters direct heat at people, surfaces and work areas rather than warming the whole volume of air. They’re useful for spot heating, working-zone warmth in workshops, partially open spaces and high-bay environments where heating the whole space would be wasteful. Confirm clearance from materials and from people, and check the product specification for power supply requirements.

Oil-filled radiators are quiet and steady, which makes them well suited to occupied office and domestic rooms where a noisy fan heater would be intrusive. They warm up more slowly than fan heaters but hold heat well once running. They run on a standard 240V 13A socket where applicable — check the product specification for wattage.

A heater can support drying when the space is cold, by raising air temperature so the air can carry more moisture. A heater alone does not remove water from the room — for that you need a dehumidifier. For decorating, refurbishment and plaster drying, the right setup is usually controlled warmth plus a dehumidifier, with airflow added if needed. Avoid aggressive direct heat on fresh plaster or sensitive finishes.

For a damp or water-damaged room, the lead unit is usually a dehumidifier — it removes moisture from the air. A heater is added if the space is also cold, because warmer air holds more moisture and helps the dehumidifier work. For cold but dry sites, the heater is the lead unit on its own.
