Why choose tent coolers?

During the hottest months of the year, the temperature inside a tent can quickly climb, creating an uncomfortable and potentially dangerous environment for the people and equipment inside. Our industrial tent coolers are engineered to perform in the harshest climates, from arid deserts to humid jungles, providing the cooling power to protect personnel all year-round.

One of the core applications of our range is as military tent coolers, utilised by organisations globally to overcome the intense heat they often encounter. While these tents offer vital protection from the elements, they can reach unhealthy temperatures without an appropriate cooling solution.

The immense cooling effect delivered by our tent air-conditioners, combined with their lightweight, robust build and ease to transport and deploy means Dantherm has been chosen to support military and humanitarian aid operations for over 35 years.

We have developed tent coolers for all forms of military requirements, from maintaining comfortable temperatures inside personnel tents, to cooling transport containers storing equipment, vehicles and more. These include tent coolers that are both CBRN and COLPRO compliant, making them ideal for use in shelters that must remain sealed.

Our tent air conditioning solutions have also played a crucial role in field hospitals across the globe. These provide consistent supplies of cooled air to benefit the comfort and wellbeing of patients in already critical conditions, as well as medical staff and essential workers in temperatures as high as 55ºC.

Customers have also employed our tent coolers to create a comfortable environment for attendees at festivals, concerts, circuses and similar environments. With crowding a major source of overheating, these units cover extensive areas with cool, comfortable air, so there is minimal risk of heat-related incidents or illnesses.

With variable fan speeds, low-demand power supplies and a wide range of useful accessories, including flexible exhaust hoses, tubes and ducts, remote thermostats and wheeled trolleys, Dantherm tent coolers are reliably helping people stay cool worldwide.

Tent coolers: Frequently Asked Questions

What are tent coolers?

To keep festivals running smoothly and humanitarian efforts on track, tent coolers are vital solutions that keep indoor conditions within temporary structures cool and comfortable on the hottest days of the year.

These systems are essential, as tents are poorly insulated and can be susceptible to extreme temperatures, placing the comfort of event attendees or the health of military personnel and refugees at risk.

How do tent coolers work?

To keep heat at bay in tent interiors, evaporators draw warm air in and remove its heat, creating chilled air and releasing it inside. At the same time, the condenser works to return the heat extracted from the cooled air back outside.

Through this process, Dantherm Group tent coolers keep busy outdoor events safe and personnel protected in harsh environments – all in the most efficient and effective way possible.

Why should I use a tent cooler?

Heat is not just a source of discomfort for attendees at events and refugees in camps. Prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures can cause heat stroke, heat exhaustion, and other serious illnesses.

Hot temperatures affect more than people. Excess heat causes vital equipment to break down, disrupting festivals and causing problems for field hospitals. The condition of food and drink can also be threatened, alongside the efficacy of essential medicine.

With a capable, rugged and efficient tent cooler in place, people can be protected, supplies can be preserved and critical equipment stays functional – enabling everything from wedding receptions to life-saving humanitarian efforts to go ahead without issue.

Can tent coolers be used in different tent sizes?

Yes. From massive refugee camps and field hospitals, to small-scale wedding marquees, our catalogue of professional cooling equipment is used by event organisers, NGOs and militaries worldwide to protect tents of all sizes against extreme heat.

Are tent coolers portable?

Yes. Designed to be as powerful, rugged and lightweight as possible, our tent coolers can be easily transported and deployed – key traits that make our solutions the go-to choice for global military and humanitarian operations.

What is the recommended cooling capacity for a tent cooler?

This will depend on a number of factors, such as the size of the tent, the target conditions that must be achieved, the number of people a structure will accommodate, as well as the outdoor climate.

We acknowledge there is no ‘one size fits all’ solution to tent cooling. That is why we pride ourselves on taking a consultative approach, recommending only the most fitting equipment for your needs. Reach out for a free assessment with our experts today.

Can I buy your tent coolers online?

For all of our tent coolers, VAT-registered companies can get a quote very quickly by pressing 'I want to buy' and inserting their enquiry and contact details.

However, you cannot carry out the entire purchasing process on our website. This is because due to the solution you wish to purchase and your area of residence, you may or may not need to buy through a local Dantherm Group representative. We will facilitate this when you use the 'I want to buy' button for the cooler of your choice.

Can I bulk buy tent coolers for a large project?

Yes, we can fulfil bulk orders across our range of tent coolers for large, bespoke projects. Get in contact with our experts or go direct to your local Dantherm Group representative to discuss the exact needs of your project and how we can meet your requirements.
