HTE Rental Team
Emergency Air for a Pipeline Contractor
After two explosions on a major pipeline, a Midwest infrastructure contractor needed compressed air at a remote site with no utilities before bypassing and pressure testing could begin.
HTE's rental team sized the equipment to the contractor's testing gear and delivered four 1600 CFM compressors and two high-capacity dryers, all trailer-mounted, within 10 hours of the first call. Every unit was pre-checked before it left the yard.
The contractor started repairs without extended delay.
"Knocking it out of the park. White glove service. 10 out of 10."Infrastructure contractor
Upper Midwest
High-Volume Food Processor
Heat buildup in a cramped compressor room was causing temperature shutdowns at a large food processing plant, and electrical limits ruled out bigger compressors.
Over a two-year planning cycle, the team modified standard air-cooled Quincy compressors to use both air and water cooling, keeping the same horsepower and fitting the existing room. Installation was completed inside the plant's summer shutdown.
"Their team was responsive, flexible, and made sure everything was ready ahead of our critical summer shutdown."Facility Manager, U.S. food processor
