Plug in to Rental Power

There are many important reasons to properly investigate and establish a relationship with a source for rental power. From planned activities like special events and building expansions, to unexpected power outages, having a temporary power plan in place guarantees the power you need is there when you need it. Working with Cashman Equipment's Power Solutions rental team can be extremely beneficial in circumstances such as scheduled power shutdowns, remote construction sites, new or expanded facilities, seasonal peak load needs, and unscheduled maintenance on equipment.

When choosing a rental service as part of an overall energy plan, it is imperative to establish the provider's credibility from both a service and an equipment standpoint, as the power system you rent is only as reliable as the supplier that backs it. Key indicators of a credible rental power provider include certification as an authorized sales and service representative of the products supplied, as well as use of genuine parts for the service of those products. A rental power provider like Cashman Power Solutions, that is also part of a nationwide network, can assist with large-scale, multi-site power needs, offering total rental power solutions through a single source.

It is also important to evaluate the ability of the provider to deliver a complete, reliable system tailored to your specific application needs. This includes the ability of the rental provider to accurately specify the correct amount of power and the complete equipment needs. In addition, the evaluation process should include the rental power provider's ability to support the stages following equipment specification, from on-time delivery, to set-up and testing, to on-site monitoring for optimal equipment functioning.

Another critical factor in identifying a rental power provider is their capability to deliver the equipment you need when you need it particularly in an emergency situation. Cashman Power Solutions, offers 24/7/365 specification and delivery of rental power systems to ensure crucial operations are backed-up and running as soon as possible. In addition to continuous power products, Cashman's Power Solutions offers temperature control units, air compressors and fuel, a full complement to all your rental needs.

The final aspect of thoroughly evaluating a source for rental power comes in an internal examination of logistics and local air permits and building/fire codes. Questions from "What are the local air permitting requirements?," to "How will cable be routed from the power supply outside to the electrical distribution boxes inside?" are important considerations. A well-qualified, credible rental power supplier like Cashman Equipment will be able to support each stage of your rental power application, assessing viable logistical in advance will ensure efficient delivery and installation of your equipment.

The following evaluation tool is designed to help you determine the best source for rental power.

	Complete, Reliable Rental from Cashman Equipment	Incomplete Rental Service
One Complete Solution	Single-source access to all product and accessory needs, including continuous power systems, cooling systems and air compressors.	Power products not available from a single source would necessitate use of multiple vendors, and reliance on service/support from more than one source. This can be both expensive and inefficient.
Support	Expert technicians available every step of the way to assist in planning a system, delivering equipment, providing technical support, service, maintenance and training programs for rental projects.	Without reliable support, many problems can arise. Over or under estimating power needs may result in unnecessary equipment or, even more serious, an inadequate power solution.
Response	A reliable rental power provider understands the urgency of your needs. They can immediately outfit your system, deliver it (with all the ancillary equipment included), provide the connection, fuel, start-up, service, and maintenance, and can remain on-site to provide support when necessary.	Downtime can be devastating–affecting production, manufacturing equipment, sales and critical data–even compromising environmental safety and incurring legal liabilities from lapsed service. A rental power source unable to deliver on your power needs as soon as they arise can result in significant losses.
Costs	A rental power supplier sensitive to cost issues will work with a customer to plan for temporary power needs, and will offer customizable financing and contingency agreements.	Rigid financing, contractual agreements, and an inability to evaluate the ideal balance of renting versus purchasing power equipment limits the rental power supplier from offering optimal economic efficiency to the customer.
Environmental Considerations	A rental power supplier offers units specially engineered to produce lower gas/diesel emissions and meet or exceed local emission standards, and will offer services such as sound attenuation for sensitive environments. All units come with standard fuel containment.	Specific environmental considerations cannot be met with the equipment offered by the provider, or equipment offered causes emission of excess air and noise pollution to the environment inside and/or surrounding the site.
