Heat pump loading chiller hire is a service that supplies temporary water chillers to remove the heat generated by heat pumps for testing and commissioning purposes, otherwise known as load testing.
Temporary water chillers are used to provide a load for for heat pumps to work against and is known as load testing.
Heat pumps work by transferring energy from one place to another. For example, an air source heat pump moves energy from ambient air to water which is subsequently circulated to heat inside spaces.
When these machines are installed they require testing to check for correct operation. Generally known as load testing, it requires the removal of the heat generated by the heat pump.
Packaged water chillers are perfect for this application. Not only are they compact, they also have a quantifiable power rating which is very useful when selecting a load source that is adequate for the purpose.
Very handy now that decarbonisation projects utilising heat pump technology are becoming more prevelant.

Temporary water chillers are supplied with a number of component parts to connect them to a heat pump system for testing.
The above components are designed to be applied in a temporary way to provide a reliable system for testing purposes. Highly portable, they can be set up and operational in hours and hired for any duration to suite the project.
Don’t delay, if you are looking for advice or have an immediate need for heat pump loading chiller hire please get in touch by phone or contact form included on these pages. We pick up all messages regularly and will reply promptly.
We will contact you to discuss your needs and gather any information that is at hand. Once we have this we can quickly make some recommendations with budget costs to get the ball rolling. As the project progresses and more information becomes available, our proposal will be refined. Site visits are free and are highly recommended.
Be assured, that with a wide range of water chillers available, we can approach projects in a professional manner. Our experienced engineers will present the best possible proposal in terms of cost, practicality and operation capabilities.
We are happy to advise in any way we can and all quotations and budget costings are provided obligation free.

A heat pump chiller is a temporary water chiller used to provide a load for heat pumps during testing and commissioning. In practical terms, it gives heat pump installers a controllable load for the heat pump to work against, enabling accurate measurement and verification of performance.
A heat pump loading chiller works by safely removing heat from the heat pump water circuit, allowing the heating system to operate under controlled test conditions. This creates a false or managed load, which helps testers verify output against design calculations and confirm that the system is operating as intended.
The exact package will depend on the project, but our heat pump chiller hire will usually include a suitable packaged water chiller and the temporary connections needed for safe, reliable testing. Advanced Cooling shapes each solution around the system being tested rather than offering off-the-shelf solutions.
Hire periods can be arranged to suit the commissioning programme. In practice, that means we can support short-term testing requirements as well as longer hiring periods for more complex programmes. The best option is to speak with our team so we can align the hire duration with the testing window and site requirements.
