Temporary Heating Solutions for Construction and Industry

RVT Group provides reliable temporary heating hire for construction sites, industrial facilities, warehouses, infrastructure and defence projects and other demanding working environments. Our temporary heating solutions help customers maintain safe temperatures, protect equipment and materials, accelerate drying processes and keep critical projects moving throughout the colder months.

Cold and damp conditions can significantly affect productivity and project programmes. Plaster, screed, paint, coatings and concrete may take longer to dry or cure, while temperature-sensitive materials and machinery can become damaged or fail to operate effectively. Low temperatures can also create uncomfortable working conditions for site teams. A correctly designed temporary heating system helps reduce these risks by maintaining a more stable and controlled environment.

Our CLIMEX® heating range includes high-output indirect oil-fired heaters and electric fan heaters, allowing us to recommend a solution based on the size of the space, the required temperature, the available power supply and the specific needs of your project.

Clean, Dry Heat from Indirect Oil-Fired Heaters

Indirect oil-fired heaters are one of the most effective and economical temporary heating solutions for large, enclosed or partially enclosed spaces. Unlike direct-fired heaters, an indirect heater uses a heat exchanger to separate combustion gases from the heated airflow.

The heater produces clean, dry and fume-free warm air, while exhaust gases are discharged safely outside the working environment. Heated air can then be distributed through flexible ducting and directed precisely to the areas where it is required.

This makes indirect oil-fired heating particularly suitable for occupied buildings, warehouses, factories and construction projects where maintaining good air quality is essential. Because the heater can remain outside, the equipment does not take up valuable space within the working area and workers are not exposed to combustion fumes.

Indirect oil-fired heaters also avoid adding excess moisture to the environment. This is particularly important when drying plaster, paint, screed, specialist coatings and other building materials. Introducing additional moisture can extend drying times and potentially affect the quality of finishes, whereas clean, dry heat supports a more controlled and effective drying process.

Heating for Construction Sites

Temporary construction heating can help projects continue during cold and unpredictable weather. Our equipment can be used to:

  • Dry plaster, paint, coatings and screed
  • Support concrete curing
  • Protect materials from frost and moisture
  • Maintain suitable temperatures for finishing work
  • Heat welfare units and temporary site offices
  • Improve working conditions for site teams
  • Reduce weather-related delays

Heating requirements can change throughout the different stages of a construction project. Our portable heating equipment and flexible ducting arrangements allow the solution to be adapted or repositioned as the site develops.

Industrial and Warehouse Heating Hire

Factories, warehouses and industrial facilities can also require temporary heating during boiler failures, planned maintenance, HVAC upgrades, refurbishments or emergency shutdowns. Heating may also be needed to protect temperature-sensitive machinery, products and manufacturing processes.

Large industrial spaces can be difficult to heat because of high ceilings, loading bays, vehicle movements and frequent door openings. High-capacity indirect oil-fired heaters can produce substantial volumes of warm air and distribute it across large spaces, helping businesses maintain operational continuity and reduce disruption.

Temporary heaters can also provide localised heating for workshops, loading bays, production areas, storage facilities, canteens and offices.
