When construction projects take place during the summer months in southern Florida, the excessive heat and humidity requires special planning and consideration. As part of a bridge construction and massive concrete pour, rumored to be the largest in Florida’s history, these challenges required special equipment and a knowledgeable team to get the job done. When the DOT called upon us to discuss, we were anxious to be a part of the project and to provide...

As the agriculture industry adapts new technologies and methods to deal with global warming, droughts, water shortages, and other challenges, certain farms and businesses are leading the way. When a grow farm from Finland that produces 100% organic herbs for Whole Foods, Publix, and others in Florida reached out with a need, we were anxious to assist. In the Southwestern Florida heat and humidity, a greenhouse, about the size of a soccer field, is producing...

Last year, Lake Charles faced considerable damage as a result of Hurricane Laura, which caused the deaths of over two dozen people and devastation to thousands of homes and businesses. Before Hurricane Delta would lead to even more grief less than two months later, the Louisiana city was left in a sort of shock while it worked to regain its footing in Laura’s aftermath. With no shortage of recovery efforts to perform, it was critical...

Spring is about a month away, and milder temperatures are just beyond the horizon as the end of winter runs its course. But although it seems like everyone is occupied with staying warm, that’s not always the case once you scratch beneath the (literal) surface. One mining company is planning on establishing an operation at an underground metal mine in Canada, and a major obstacle for them to overcome is an excess of heat at considerable depths....

Although the Southwestern United States is well known for its scorching temperatures during the day, nighttime and winter temperatures in places like Arizona are actually much colder than many nonresidents would think. Thanks to these temperatures, construction projects in the Grand Canyon State face many of the same challenges you’d expect when constructing a building in a much colder climate. Without a source of adequate heat on the jobsite, building materials may not set, cure,...

As we know all too well, sometimes construction projects seem to take forever to complete. However, there are also times when construction projects are finished well ahead of schedule. If most of a building’s construction is finished, and the only thing preventing completion is something minor such as the delivery of cooling equipment, it can be excruciating to have to wait those final weeks. When two new shipping centers of a world-renowned retailer were all...

Reservoirs are an invaluable component of water availability for any locality, as they provide an abundant source of potable water during droughts and periods of limited water availability. While many reservoirs are natural or manmade lakes, some are also completely manmade, underground structures that are closed off from the outside. One such underground reservoir in Texas suffered minor damage in the aftermath of an earthquake, revealing a crack in the reservoir’s concrete and epoxy sealant....

Sometimes our technicians come across straightforward jobs that are minimally demanding and take a matter of hours to install. Other times, they face enormous buildings where ducting and cable need to be run from one corner to the other, hundreds of feet away. This was the case for the install team at one Long Island shipping distribution center, stationed in a hanger previously used to manufacture military fighter jets. The shipping center, which has several...

In a country where two day shipping is almost considered the norm, it’s easy to forget about the facilities that make it all possible. When one shipping facility’s main chiller system broke down, and the workers’ union threatened to strike if cooling was not restored in a timely manner, it became crucial to quickly provide temporary cooling while repairs were made. The mechanical contractor hired to repair the system quickly called American Spot Cooling &...

Among the busy streets of Boston, one building suffered a failure of almost half its cooling system in the heat of the summer. A mechanical contractor, tasked with fixing the 400 ton direct expansion cooler on the roof, needed to provide the building with temporary cooling while they made their repairs. They called on American Spot Cooling & Power Rental for their rental air conditioning needs, and we were immediately ready to respond with the...
