Refrigerant Prices Affect Trailer Rental
14-Jun-2015

There is little doubt that F-gas regulations will drastically change both commercial and residential refrigeration for decades to come. As Europe moves to abolish the use of certain chemical refrigerants that negatively affect the atmosphere, new refrigerants will have to rise to take their place. All of this will have an effect on refrigerated trailer rental although the impact on our industry will not be nearly as significant as other industries.

Refrigerated Trailer Rental: for When It Fails
07-Jun-2015

A Tayside woman with an old Kelvinator fridge may have the distinction of owning the oldest such household appliance in the UK. Her refrigerator has been running strong for 60 years now. The 84-year-old woman did not own the appliance when it was first purchased in 1955; it belonged to her mother-in-law when she and her husband first moved in together after marriage.

Medical Refrigeration Can Be Complicated
03-Jun-2015

In previous blog posts, we have briefly touched on the need for providing temporary refrigeration to companies storing medical supplies. Now we want to carry that thought one step further by talking about the complex nature of these kinds of operations. It is one thing for a restaurant to call us looking for an emergency refrigerated trailer in the heart of London; it is entirely different to receive a call from a medical facility in need of temporary cold storage.

Magnetic Refrigeration May Be the Wave of the Future
31-May-2015

When you call Icecool Trailers for same-day cold room hire, we deliver a trailer or walk-in room designed and constructed according to principles that have not changed much in more than 100 years. Our units rely on a compressor system and the time-tested principle of lowering temperature by expanding and compressing a refrigerant gas. However, it appears as though the days of gas refrigerants are quickly coming to a close. What will replace gas? Magnets are a very strong candidate.
