RENTING CHILLER

How Much Is Downtime Costing You? Why a JC Younger Rental Chiller Is the Smartest Move This Summer

Why a JC Younger Rental Chiller Is the Smartest Move This Summer Downtime hurts. Every hour without reliable cooling means lost product, missed deadlines, and stressed-out staff. When summer heat hits your facility, there’s no time for repair delays or DIY fixes. If you operate a brewery, distillery, food or milk processing plant, or another industrial facility, your glycol system is the backbone of production. When it falters, everything stops. At JC Younger, we know downtime is more than inconvenient — it’s expensive. That’s why our rental chillers are built for speed, performance, and simplicity. They arrive ready to run. You plug them in, power up, and get back to business. The Real Cost of Chiller Downtime When your chiller fails, here’s what you’re risking: Spoiled product that can’t be sold or shipped  Ruined fermentation or distillation runs  Missed deadlines for distribution  Overtime wages trying to recover lost time  Safety issues from overheating equipment or product  Just one bad batch at a midsize brewery could cost $5,000–$20,000. For food and milk processors, missed temperature holds could lead to product recalls or failed audits. Every hour counts — the longer you wait, the more it costs. What’s Included With Your JC Younger Rental No surprises. No missing parts. Every rental comes fully prepared to get you running fast: Pre-filled glycol mixture  Digital thermostat and controls pre-set  Transformer, hoses, and power cord (if needed)  Support during install — over the phone or virtual walk-through  Access to real JC Younger technicians, not bots  Spare parts stocked on-site for quick fixes  Two preventive maintenance inspections (PMI) per year to ensure long-term performance  Option to bring in a certified JC Younger Senior Tech for startup and training, available at $2,500/day plus expenses  We size chillers to your specific load and ship from multiple nationwide staging locations to minimize downtime. No guessing. No scrambling. Just cold air and stability when you need it most. Why Rentals Convert Better Than Repairs in High-Risk Months From June through August, delays are common. Technicians are booked out. Parts are backordered. Even if you get a repair, there’s no guarantee it will last the season. Here’s the smarter move: Rent first. Repair later. Scenario Total Downtime Lost Output Value Confidence in Cooling Wait for Repair/non Jcy 3–5 days $10,000+ Low Attempt DIY Fix 2–5days $8,000+ Low Rent JC Younger Chiller/Onsite 24 Hours  1 Day production High Many rentals are also covered by insurance, reducing your out-of-pocket cost. What Makes Our Rentals “White-Glove”? You do not just get a box on a pallet. You get a fully operational system, tested and shipped with your timeline in mind. JC Younger rentals include: Fast nationwide shipping Pre-configured glycol mix On-site support or virtual install help Phone access to our techs during hookup Step-by-step instructions for your team If needed, we can coordinate with your facility engineer or maintenance crew to confirm specs, voltage, layout, and capacity. We are not just renting equipment. We are making sure you succeed with it. Built for Breweries, Distilleries, Food & Milk Processors Our chillers are trusted by: Breweries expanding production in peak months  Distilleries needing consistent barrel cooling  Milk processors meeting tight USDA temperature standards  Food facilities ramping up for seasonal volume  Whether it’s a one-week emergency or a three-month backup plan, we’ve got systems from 3 HP to 75+ HP ready to go.   Want Backup on Site for Under $15 a Day?

Industrial chillers have been employed in breweries for the past several decades to control the temperature of liquids like wort and beer during all stages of production, including fermentation, storage, and packaging. Industrial chillers are also used to control humidity levels in brewery areas. Five Industrial Chiller Related Questions 1. Outdoor Chiller versus an Indoor Chiller? The main difference between industrial chillers is where they are located and how they function, each with its own benefits and drawbacks. Industrial chillers that are designed to be placed outside or in a cold storage area typically have more space for larger components and the compressor is usually at one end of the chiller. Industrial chillers located indoors may need less room for equipment but can be limited by space constraints since most industrial chillers need to sit on a concrete floor where they can draw cool air in from outdoors. Industrial chillers that are designed for outdoor use typically run at a higher cycle rate than indoor industrial chillers, but they can be more expensive to operate. Industrial chillers that are designed to be placed indoors function more efficiently, but they also tend to cost more because of their smaller size and need for specialty insulation. 2. Are Industrial Chillers Expensive? Industrial chillers can be expensive to purchase outright, but renting them could end up being a better option for your business over time. Industrial chillers range in price from $2,000 to several thousand dollars. Industrial chillers can require costly repairs if they are not maintained properly by the manufacturer. Industrial brewers must carefully choose between purchasing and renting an industrial chiller because of their high cost of upkeep and purchase. JC Younger Industrial Chillers provides professional services for installations and preventative maintenance, so you can ensure your chillers are operating at peak performance. 3. How Does an Industrial Chiller Work? Industrial chillers take a liquid, like water or wort from a mash tun, and circulate it through a set of pipes to a compressor where the …

When Your System Breaks Down, Chiller Rentals Are Your Friend

USA Made Industrial Chiller Rentals from JC Younger Keep You Going Few things are worse than machinery malfunctioning on you. This is particularly true if your business has a chiller, relies on it to complete your job, and then acts up. The result can be anything from lost flower clients to spoiled scientific studies. This is when renting a chiller is a business saver. Keeps You Operational Time is money in business. Any amount of time that you spend trying to fix a chiller is time that your employees are getting paid to stand around and product is going bad. You have to replace the product, explain to customers about any delays (which won’t look good,) and possibly hire on another company to finish your job. You can avoid most of the foregoing when you rent a chiller to replace the malfunctioning one. It should arrive before you lose much productivity, and it can let you meet your obligations without the expense of subcontracting. Lets You Scope Out Your Options One of the worst aspects of a broken chiller is that it is a crisis. It needs to be fixed before your normal processes come to a screeching halt. This can lead you to fix it in a way that costs far more later on. The rental chiller acts as a stop gap measure that gives you time to think about how you can best resolve your problem. Do you need a completely new system? Was there something wrong with the wiring or logistics that could be updated to make things work better? Is it better to switch processes? You have a chance to ask yourself these questions and get to the best answer for your company. Allows You To Deal With Other Types Of Systemic Emergencies Systems fail in a number of ways for many reasons. In the best situation, your business expands too fast for your machinery to cope with. In other times, your business has to pivot to meet changing demands and your old chiller just doesn’t work for the new circumstances. Renting a new chiller is part of meeting those challenges. It lets you change your process temporarily or try out the new type of chiller until you are ready to buy the most appropriate one. It lets you double up your speed to meet rising demand. The best part about them is that you can save up to buy the one you are renting if your new situation is permanent.

You can rent a chiller for as little as one week or keep it for years. However long it takes to get back and running is how long you can use it. We take our commitment to businesses seriously, so when you need a chiller rental, contact us. Our warehouse and our technicians are ready for your order.

But shoppers entering both supermarkets and small independent grocery stores across the country are finding shelves empty.

Why Renting Chillers For Your Industrial Business Is A Good Idea

Running a business, especially when you are just starting out, is hard. Big pieces of equipment are a big part of that headache, and the first thing you have to ask is if you need to rent or buy the equipment. With chillers, renting might be a good idea. Business Advantages To Renting It is better to buy equipment sometimes, but there are many circumstances where that isn’t so. Some general reasons that you might prefer to rent something as big as a chiller include: You have to move your business sometimes or your business will change location soon. Lugging a big piece of equipment between places may be more hassle and expense than it is worth. You are just starting out and increasing your cash flow is critical. Rental packages can be more affordable upfront. The purpose of your chiller is both specific and temporary. Many business projects require a chiller unique to that activity. However, these projects don’t last forever. It will be hard to resell such a specialized piece of equipment and you won’t want it taking up lots of expensive space once you don’t need it. Your business really can’t afford maintenance alone. Many rental packages come with the rental company’s expertise, and rented chillers can be easily replaced before the wearing down starts to outstrip your ability to take care of it. You are just starting out and know that you will need to upgrade your equipment regularly as your business grows. If the older model no longer works for your company, you can return it and get the one that does without trying to store or sell the less-useful piece of equipment. Some industry-specific reasons to get a rental are: You work in something agricultural and you need to accommodate the harvest season while saving space for the rest of the year. Feedlots, breweries, CBD, and hemp manufacturers have times when they are dealing with large influxes of crops. Research and development teams that are working on specific projects. A particular experiment requiring a chiller can last anywhere from a day to years, but they do end. What Should You Look For In A Rental Chiller Each industry has particular requirements for chillers. Some need jacketing, some should be air-chilled, and others should be water-cooled. However, once you have identified what you are going to do with your chiller, where it will be located (some are designed to be outside, ) and how long you are going to need it, you will want to look at some general requirements. For instance: You will want it to be easy to fix, maintain, and operate. There is no sense in getting a chiller that it would take Einstein to keep working, and this is doubly true for a piece of equipment you are renting. It is helpful if the parts of the chiller are non-specialized and don’t need fancy, unfixable items like microprocessors to function. That way, anyone can make simple replacements. Rental packages should come with a phone number you can call for troubleshooting. The parts should all meet the UL (Underwriters Laboratories) standards. They are an international company that writes the safety standards for various pieces of equipment. Chiller components are covered by the UL 1995. Fortunately, JC Younger specializes in building, selling, and renting out chillers that meet the above requirements. Since 1956, our family-owned company has made chillers for light commercial and heavy industrial purposes. Our large manufacturing plant and years of experience allow us to create equipment that matches your business’s needs. You can rent these items for a week or for years, and we will gladly help you troubleshoot a chiller over the phone or send you a technician to fix the problem. If you are interested in renting a chiller, contact us.

Rented Chiller & Preventative Maintenance

Get The Most Out Of Your Rented Chiller With Preventative Maintenance One of the biggest perks of renting a chiller versus owning one is that you are not stuck with costly upgrades. You can ship it back to the manufacturer before anything major gets too outmoded to work for you. You even have back up from the manufacturer’s experts in case you need technical help. However, even minor hiccups in a crucial bit of machinery such as a chiller can disrupt your business, even if you do rent from folks with a helpline and certified technicians who can fix the problem quickly. It would be better to simply avoid any hassles by taking a few preventative measures. Here are few steps that will make sure that you will get the most out of your chiller for the entire time that you are renting it. Inspections Your chiller has a few things that need to be checked every several days. The first one is the condenser, which can catch little things in its coils overnight or through the work day. Besides, condenser towers are often outside, which leaves it exposed to debris brought in on the wind. It should be easy to wipe away any obstructions. Give your chiller a visual once-over while you are there to make sure all the connections and pipes look right. It is easier to fix things if you catch them when they are little and before the business of the day begins. If your condenser has a filter pad, inspecting that routinely will help you keep it clean. Use The Right Cooling Media Each chiller is designed to work best with a certain blend of glycol. If you are using the chiller for making food or for medical purposes, the type of chiller you get will be designed to run on Propylene glycol. For other chiller types, you will probably need Ethylene glycol mixtures. It is best to buy them pre-blended so that you don’t have to guess how much of each material you need to make the appropriate cooling media blend. Be sure to find out what the appropriate percentages are and stick to them, unless the manufacturers recommend changing it. Also, avoid automotive glycol. It is not the same formula as standard glycol. It contains silicone, which can cling to the pipes and cause problems over time. Check The Glycol Reservoir Just as your car works best if all the reservoirs are filled up, your chiller works best if all of its reservoirs are full. Make sure that it is at least 80-95% full by the end of the week, and top it off when it threatens to get lower. Monitor The Ambient Temperature Temperature fluctuations aren’t just bad for your business. They are a sign of chiller trouble. Remember that many types of chillers work best above 50 degrees Fahrenheit unless you add glycol. Keep an eye on the glycol inlet and outlet temperatures so you can catch the problems early and maintain the optimal operating temperature. Clean Your Chiller Regularly All machinery collects dust overtime, and this is especially true of hardworking equipment such as chillers. It will work best if you regularly clean the exposed parts of the chillers and arrange for the filters to be changed so that nothing will clog the working parts. You don’t have to do this too often, maybe 4 times a year if you use your chiller all year, or twice a year if you only use it half of the year. When your company needs to rent a chiller or you have questions about the one you are renting, contact us. Our family-owned business has been working with chillers since 1956, and we are anxious to help you with your rental chillers.
