What is a genset?
Genset rental (a generator set , also known as a genset) is used for all kinds of applications where portable power is required. It turns fuel (such as diesel or petrol) into electricity which can be used for any situation in which mains power would otherwise be required.
Case Study – Powering a refrigerated trailer for ice-cream
Ice cream is an excellent treat in the summer months, however stock needs to be kept below 0, in order to prevent it simply melting away into an expensive puddle. Aircon Rentals came to the rescue of an ice-cream seller recently who was selling goods at a week long international event. With four 38 degree days in a row, they had vast quantities of ice cream to sell to a very hot and very hungry public. As the event was being held over the weekend and public holidays, additional stock was being kept in a refrigerated trailer, to prevent needing re-supply over the holiday period, which would incur additional charges from their supplier.
With the event taking place in the middle of large, open fields, there was no mains power available for the seller. Since power was a necessity for the refrigeration to be supplied, the trailer mounted freezer was being powered by a generator. In the heat of the second day, the clients generator over heated and stopped working. That’s when our client called Aircon Rentals in a panic. If they didn’t have another power source up and running soon, they’d lose the stock, the sales, and any hope of making a profit at this event. They had to rent a genset immediately, and it had to be on site fast!
Equipment used – 80kva generator
Aircon Rentals was immediately on the case. Our highly skilled team at Aircon Rentals was able to immediately deploy a rental 80kva Cummins genset and installed the unit, preventing the stock being damaged and the ensuring that it could continue to be sold to the customers.

All of our generators (ranging in size from 20amp petrol generators to 1250kva diesel gensets) are regularly maintained and serviced by our in house diesel mechanics.

Other equipment
Had it been the refrigerated trailer itself which suffered an outage rather than the generator, Aircon Rentals would have been able to resolve that as well. With a range of mobile coolrooms for hire, which can be put into fridge or freezer mode, Aircon Rentals could have also provided the cooling capabilities to keep that ice cream cold before being sold.
Aircon Rentals also has Refrigerated Reefers for hire which could also have been deployed into the event had it been required.
