You can meet all your storage and space needs without breaking a sweat this summer with a custom shipping container with a built-in HVAC system. Pro tip: just make sure you find the right container fabricators!
If you’re interested in exploring the potential of shipping containers as a storage unit, mobile office, pop-up building, or for another similar purpose, but you’re not sure how it would work with summer coming... the good news is most fabricators now offer these containers with advanced and effective HVAC systems so that you can maintain the optimal temperature inside regardless of how hot it gets outside.
And the especially good news is that if you’re not sure exactly what to look for in a shipping container, big brands like Conexwest are often really happy to help.
Whether you’re looking for a shipping container for your business or just for your home needs, you are likely drawn to their potential as a portable, cost-effective, space-maximizing solution.
To make sure you get exactly what you are hoping for out of your container, you should look for a fabricator that’s offering comfort and customization options, like HVACs.
While most good shipping containers are fabricated with high-quality weatherproof, waterproof and durable Corten steel, and feature sheets of sophisticated foam insulation inside their walls, if you’re going to be working inside one of them, or storing important goods inside of them, you need to be able to set it to a comfortable and appropriate temperature; whether this means heating things up, or cooling them down in soaring summer temps.
Because every container is different, and the way every container is used is different too, one thing to look for when you’re choosing a fabricator is if they have a large range of HVAC systems.
You probably wouldn’t want anything less than an 8,000BTU system, and if you’re ordering a larger shipping container, you’ll probably want something closer to a powerful 25,000BTU system that can cool up to 16,000 square feet of space.
You’ll also want a reverse cycle system that can heat, cool and dehumidify. Plus, you should look for HVACs that boast good energy efficiency ratings and come with smart functionality features like remote control, 8-way directional control and timer systems.
This is what big names like Conexwest offer. As they said, “This summer, you can be sure you’ll beat the heat with one of our heavy-duty air conditioner units; so you can keep your container interiors cool, comfortable, and productive.”
Many fabricators will offer HVAC as a part of their slate of container customization options, and this could be a great option.
This means that, whether you are buying or renting your container, you will be able to choose from exterior and interior modifications like personnel doors and windows, electric and plumbing systems, flooring, walling, painting, lighting and built-in furniture.
With temperatures heating up, there is no time to waste in getting your container sorted, so another great tip is to look for a fabricator that guarantees swift nationwide delivery. Plus, many trusted names include delivery in the cost of rental or purchase.
