What Rocky Mountain Portable Cooling does

Rocky Mountain Portable Cooling, doing business as Mobile Air & Power Rentals (MAPR), is a privately held temporary HVAC and power rental provider founded in 1997 and headquartered at 1021 S 86th Street in Tampa, FL. The company operates through 30+ strategically placed branch locations across the United States, supported by a 24/7/365 national phone line (888-305-3038) and emergency restoration capabilities for hurricanes, tornadoes, and floods.

Its product portfolio spans portable spot air conditioners, trailer-mounted chillers up to 440 tons, cooling towers, electric/direct-fired/indirect-fired heaters in NG, LP, and diesel variants, LGR and desiccant dehumidifiers, air movers, air scrubbers and negative air machines, and generators of all sizes with power distribution accessories. The company's "Engineered Solutions" approach tailors equipment selection, configuration (e.g., trailer-mounted units deployable near any building or tent, spot coolers designed to fit through standard doorways), and on-site support to each customer's space and operational requirements.

Revenue is generated primarily through usage-based equipment rentals supplemented by professional services tied to emergency restoration deployments. The go-to-market is sales-led, combining direct phone sales, online quote capture, and SEO-optimized content (BTU and heat calculators, psychrometric and amp charts, blog, case studies, disaster relief pages) to drive inbound commercial, industrial, event, and disaster response demand across SMB, mid-market, and enterprise customers.

Direct peers

• Aggreko: Aggreko is the global leader in temporary power and temperature-control rentals, offering chillers, air conditioners, heaters, dehumidifiers, and generators on a rental basis — directly competing with MAPR across essentially the same product categories and customer use cases, including disaster response and industrial temporary cooling.
• Atlas Copco Specialty Rental: Atlas Copco's Specialty Rental division delivers temporary cooling, heating, power, and air solutions globally to industrial and events customers, overlapping closely with MAPR's chillers, AC units, heaters, dehumidifiers, and generators fleet and serving similar emergency and planned-project use cases.

Broad incumbents

• United Rentals: United Rentals is the largest North American equipment rental company with a dedicated Climate Solutions segment offering HVAC, power, and air-quality rentals. MAPR competes for the same temporary-climate-control wallet, though United Rentals' portfolio is significantly broader (aerial, earthmoving, etc.) and its resources far larger.
• Sunbelt Rentals: Sunbelt Rentals (part of Ashtead Group) operates one of the largest climate-control rental fleets in North America, providing cooling, heating, dehumidification, and power rentals alongside its broader industrial and general-rental offerings — directly competitive with MAPR on HVAC and power rentals at a much larger scale.
• Carrier Global Corporation: Carrier is a global HVAC manufacturer that operates rental and temporary-services businesses through Carrier Rental Systems, supplying chillers, air handlers, and controls on a temporary basis. It overlaps with MAPR's cooler/heater/chiller rentals from a manufacturer-owned footprint with deeper R&D and product breadth.
• Trane Technologies: Trane Technologies is a leading commercial HVAC OEM that runs a temporary cooling and heating rental business serving industrial, events, and emergency customers. It competes with MAPR in higher-tonnage chiller rentals and emergency HVAC deployment, with the advantage of being a manufacturer.
• Herc Rentals: Herc Rentals (a Hertz spinoff) is a major North American equipment-rental company with a Climate Solutions segment offering portable cooling, heating, power, and dehumidification rentals. It overlaps with MAPR on the temporary-climate-control product category but operates from a much larger diversified rental footprint.
• Caterpillar Inc. Caterpillar operates the CAT Rental Store network providing industrial equipment, generators, and climate-related rentals to industrial and construction customers. Its generator fleet and parts/service network overlap with MAPR's power-rental and HVAC offerings, anchored by a leading equipment manufacturer with substantial scale.
