Temporary construction sites in the Middle East can face extreme heat, especially during peak summer months. This makes it crucial to ensure a comfortable working environment for everyone on-site.
As temperatures soar, maintaining a cool and breathable atmosphere becomes essential for worker productivity, safety, and overall site efficiency. In this blog, we’ll explore 5 of the most effective cooling solutions here at Andrews Sykes Climate Rental for temporary construction sites in the Middle East, and how they can make all the difference when managing heat in such challenging environments.
1. Evaporative coolers
Evaporative coolers offer an ideal solution for cooling small to medium-sized areas where ventilation is limited. They’re easy to operate and require minimal setup; simply fill the water tank, plug them in, and switch them on. These energy-efficient coolers do not require a connection to external devices and are perfect for smaller temporary offices, site cabins or outdoor spaces that require quick cooling.
Benefits:
- No installation required
- Portable and easy to move
- Energy-efficient
- Cost-effective solution
- Ideal for small to medium spaces
- Great for providing localised cooling
Why they’re ideal for temporary construction sites:
Evaporative coolers offer flexibility in environments where construction workers or equipment need temporary relief from the heat. Their ability to provide fast, efficient, and localised cooling makes them perfect for small areas, such as mobile offices and storage containers on-site.

2. Cooling fans
Cooling fans, including mist fans, offer a highly effective solution for improving air circulation on construction sites. Designed to exhaust stale air and bring in fresh air, cooling fans deliver a constant flow of cool air to workers and equipment. Their quiet operation ensures they don’t disrupt work, which makes them suitable for various applications that require a low-level of noise, such as tents and workshops.
Benefits:
- Quiet operation
- Increases air circulation and comfort
- Reduces humidity and improves air quality
- Portable and easy to move
- Ideal for larger spaces and open areas
Why they’re ideal for temporary construction sites:
Cooling fans are especially effective in large open construction areas, offering fresh airflow and helping to expel dangerous fumes, dust, or water vapour. They improve comfort levels on-site and help to maintain a breathable atmosphere, which is essential for worker productivity and safety.

Fluid chillers provide large-scale cooling by circulating chilled water through air handling units. These are perfect for sites where substantial cooling is needed, like large tents, workshops, or areas with heavy machinery generating heat. At Andrews Sykes Climate Rental, our fluid chillers use environmentally friendly refrigerants to ensure efficient operation while reducing energy consumption.
Benefits:
- High cooling capacity for large areas
- Energy-efficient
- Uses environmentally friendly refrigerants
- Ideal for high-demand cooling needs
Why they’re ideal for temporary construction sites:
Fluid chillers are highly effective for large, enclosed spaces or temporary structures that require consistent cooling. Their ability to cool air for long periods without interruptions is crucial for preventing equipment overheating and maintaining comfort levels for workers.

5. Air Handlers
Air handling units (AHUs) provide large-scale temperature control by circulating cool or warm air throughout the site. They can be connected to cooling systems or used with external chilled water sources. Our air handling units, under our chiller rental range, are designed to provide the necessary cooling power for large construction sites with complex cooling needs.
Benefits:
- Provides complete temperature control
- Highly efficient at managing large spaces
- Flexible and can be used for heating or cooling
- Easy to integrate with other systems
- Ideal for areas with high cooling demands
Why they’re ideal for temporary construction sites:
Air handlers make sure that large spaces, including temporary warehouses, tents, or multi-unit offices, stay at a consistent temperature. They are especially useful for sites with high cooling demands, offering precise control over the environment.
