Save Job

Company Overview Rescue Cooling Rentals provides temporary HVAC and climate control solutions across Texas, Arizona, Florida, and other high-growth Sunbelt markets. When HVAC systems fail during extreme heat, businesses, schools, healthcare facilities, and property managers face immediate operational and safety risks. We respond fast, often delivering cold air within 90 minutes, to keep facilities operational.

Our customers include nursing homes, medical facilities, school districts, churches, manufacturing plants, data centers, property management companies, and HVAC contractors who need temporary cooling for their own clients. Rescue Cooling operates at the intersection of

operations excellence, relationship-driven B2B sales, and modern marketing systems , and continues to grow rapidly across major metro areas.
