EXCELLENT Based on 6 reviews Posted on Richard WardTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Needed a heat exchanger for hot water quickly at a job down in Rugby, Steve sorted us out really quickly and got it over to us within 4 hours of requesting it. Top man and top service 👌Posted on Warren DavidsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Rapid chillers they are indeed. My chiller went down at approx 2pm I tried to fix it without success, phoned Rapid at 5pm and they were here by 7pm with a solution. The following day we were back up and running, massive thanks to the team!Posted on Ron Fellows (Climate King)Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Steve is a great guy! I needed a water chiller in a hurry and Steve made the whole experience easy. An almost brand new 400kW chiller delivered in less than a day! Installed and working only 2 hours later! Highly recommend Rapid for cold water chillers.Posted on Rob WilsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have used Steve and the guys at Rapid on a few occasions this year. Usually with me frantically trying to sort an issue that doesn't result in a loss of production. Steve has dropped everything to get to site and begin working on the issue and get us operational again. I cannot recommend himself or this company any higher if I tried, to the point he was my first port of call last week with something we were struggling with.Posted on Richard JonesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't speak highly enough of the team at rapid chiller rentals. Very knowledgeable about the products and are more than willing to help you choose the right product you need.Posted on Lee RobertsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've dealt with Steve on a few occasions and each time he's provided first class service, with a real passion to deliver exactly what is required often going above and beyond and exceeding our expectations. His expertise, technical knowledge and passion for what he does shines through and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him or Rapid Chiller Rentals
Experience
We offer full decommissioning, dismantling, and removal for:
If it’s heavy, technical, or high-risk, we can manage it.
We follow a clear, safe, and structured 5-step process for all industrial decommissioning projects.
Step 1: Site Survey & Assessment
We inspect the equipment, assess risks, check access points, and review utilities like gas, water, and electrics.
This helps us understand exactly what’s needed for a safe and smooth removal.
Step 2: Planning, Documentation & Safety Measures
Next, we prepare all RAMS (Risk Assessments & Method Statements), lifting plans, and safety procedures.
You get a full breakdown of how the work will be carried out.
Step 3: Isolation & System Shutdown
This includes electrical disconnection, pipework isolation, gas shut-off, and controlled pressure release.
This step ensures the equipment is fully safe before dismantling starts.
Step 4: Dismantling & Removal
Our engineers dismantle the equipment using professional tools and certified lifting gear.
We remove all machinery and components in a controlled, tidy, and efficient manner.
