The new agreement will provide Airedale’s UK customers with access to Aggreko’s extensive fleet of power generation and temperature control solutions, backed by Airedales nationwide team of HVAC specialists.

Customers are expected to benefit from a total rental solution, from initial site survey through to installation, commissioning, servicing, refuelling and site removal.

In addition to rental services for breakdowns and planned maintenance, Airedale will also be providing specialist risk management and testing services under the agreement. The business will be responsible for contingency planning, offering a contingency plan package that encompasses initial surveys and identification of suitable equipment, with detailed site-specific instructions and a guaranteed response time

Airedale will also provide Integrated Systems Testing (IST) for data centres, including stress testing before installation; verifying the performance of generators, PDUs and UPS units during commissioning and on an ongoing basis; and accurately simulating the load of power systems to ensure they can reliably meet the power needs of the site in question

Paul Roper, business manager, Airedale Rental Solutions, said: “Through years of experience, we have developed a strong working relationship with Aggreko. Becoming a preferred supplier to Aggreko is a source of great pride and a vote of confidence in the quality and ability of Airedale to scale its professional project management and technical capabilities.

“This agreement will offer our customers access to services which will benefit them greatly, in particular the new contingency planning service, which will help our customers manage and control risk, and ensure peace of mind. Investing in contingency planning should be at the forefront for all businesses.”
