Local boiler and burner supplier Combustion Technology has added two new boiler rental units to its rental offering.

Combustion Technology provides modern, efficient and environment-friendly solutions to meet customers combustion and heating challenges.

According to Combustion Technology project engineer Pieter Wentzel, the portable boiler containers are completely enclosed and ready to start working upon delivery without additional charges.

“There is no additional time or expense needed to unload the system or protect it from the weather. The boiler and all its controls are neatly installed inside a self-sufficient mobile container and are ready to use in a matter of minutes. “Each easy-to-use unit is designed for efficiency, comfort and convenience. They are simple to install and portable. And everything is plug-and-play. So simple,” he says.

Wentzel explains that since the company advertised this service on its website, it is inundated with enquiries from all over the country regarding its boiler rentals. Some people want to rent a boiler while their own boilers are being serviced or are out of action for a month or two. Others do not find it viable buying a permanent boiler as they only need a temporary solution on site that can be removed once their project is completed.

“We even rent boilers to customers who have ordered boilers and need something in the interim while waiting on new equipment to be delivered.”

Wentzel adds that its customers love the fact that it is such a simple solution in a container with an easy set-up and installation procedure. Best of all is, that the customers are amazed that they do not have to be present on site to manage boiler operations, they simply allow us to drop the box off and get the job done! “We also keep an eye on it as we track and pre-empt any issues to prevent downtime and breakdowns, not just with the boiler, but in general at their site.”

He says unlike its competitors who rent out boilers, Combustion Technology’s mobile rentals come with all the ancillaries. “So, no need to buy extra equipment such as a feedwater tank, fuel tank, stack, water treatment system, control panel and burner, that you may end up not using in the long term. Our rentals burn 8% to 12% less fuel than any other competitor.”

Wentzel says the company offers short- and long-term rentals from one month upwards with some customers even renting for two years. “We offer simple, flexible solutions to suit every customer’s needs. You can simply rent a container with a boiler from us, or we can build one for you and you can buy it after trying it.”
