Temporary Construction Heating, Cooling & Climate Control

Keeping construction sites warm, dry, and under control throughout every project phase. Arctic Warm provides autonomous temporary construction heating and climate control that keeps site conditions stable and predictable from start to finish, eliminating the entropy, delays, and the need to react to conditions that were “fine yesterday”.

Why site conditions become a problem on construction projects?

Construction sites are constantly changing. Structures close in, spaces shrink, schedules shift, and weather does what it always does. In an engineering sense, a construction site is a high-variable environment that traditional hardware cannot handle.

Traditional temporary heating solutions struggle with this reality. Fixed-capacity oil heaters, manual adjustments, fuel logistics, and constant supervision add risk exactly when conditions should be controlled.

In practice, this often means that conditions are adjusted after something goes wrong, not before. We call this reactive engineering, and it’s a waste of resources.

Temporary construction climate control designed as a system, not individual heaters

Arctic Warm was built on construction sites where these challenges were experienced firsthand. The solution is simple: temporary site conditions should be managed as a unified system, not as a collection of separate machines.

Managing site conditions with individual heaters usually means managing individual problems as well.

Our modular stack adapts as the site evolves:

  • structural drying with precision-controlled temperature and humidity.
  • reliable temporary construction heating for harsh sub-zero conditions.
  • phase-based capacity that scales dynamically with the project
  • stable indoor conditions that protect structures, materials, and schedules

On many sites, the biggest risk isn’t lack of heating capacity. It’s the uncertainty around whether everything is actually running when nobody is watching.

In practice, Arctic Warm systems have delivered operational reliability above 99% across active construction sites, including changing phases and harsh winter conditions.

“The biggest value is that you can sleep at night. You don’t have to worry whether the site is warm or whether something froze.”

Over 85%
More Predictable Costs

With only ~5–20% of total costs coming from energy consumption (electricity and fuel) and 80–95% tied to fixed unit pricing, Aurora Block delivers a cost structure that is over 85% more predictable compared to traditional oil heaters. By treating both electricity and fuel as energy variables, we provide a more transparent and realistic cost comparison for your project.

Over 90%
Lower CO₂ Emissions

Aurora Block is powered primarily by zero-emission heat pump technologies. Fuel is consumed only by the The Redundancy Layer, ensuring more than 90% lower CO₂ emissions than conventional solutions while providing critical reliability even in demanding conditions.

Up to 30%
Lower Costs

Optimization is a standard feature. By optimizing both the number of blocks and the chosen energy source, each site always operates with the right capacity at maximum efficiency. Resulting in up to 30% lower total costs.

How the temporary construction heating system works on site?

Arctic Warm delivers Aurora Block, a modular hybrid system designed specifically for demanding and temporary environments. If it works in construction, it work anywhere.

Instead of fixed-capacity equipment, the system automatically:

  • matches output to actual demand with zero waste
  • balances energy sources in real time
  • maintains stable conditions via continuous feedback loops

One site manager described spending Christmas dinner without worrying about the site for the first time in years. When a power outage occurred, the backup unit took over automatically and heating continued without interruption.

When the site grows, capacity grows with it. Our hardware is just a vessel for the intelligence inside. In practice, this means fewer surprises, fewer risks, and fewer phone calls outside working hours.

“I could sit at the table and finish dinner. The system handled the rest.”

Graph

The graph shows how Aurora Block adapts to challenging site heating conditions, such as a power outage or a sudden drop in outdoor temperature. In this example, the total system capacity is 296 kW.

Aurora Block is designed for seamless interconnectivity.

Each Aurora Block module operates independently, but when connected, they form a centrally managed energy grid. The system automatically balances loads, intelligently prioritizes energy sources, and continuously optimizes performance.

This enables an immediate response to events like temperature drops or power outages without manual intervention. While traditional equipment requires constant adjustment and reaction, this system solves the problem before you even know it exists.

In active deployments, Aurora Block has achieved over 99% reliability, even in extreme conditions and during power outages.

Artic Warm - Aurora Block for heating, cooling and climate control

The Aurora Block system modules

Aurora Block is built from purpose-designed modules, each with a specific role within the overall system. Modules can operate independently or as part of a coordinated network.

Aurora 28:
Air to Water

A highly adaptable module suitable for almost any site. Operates efficiently in all climates, providing heating, cooling, and humidity control with precision and reliability. The workhorse of the fleet.

Aurora 40 Geothermal:

Designed for sites with geothermal access. Uses renewable ground heat to deliver efficient, low-emission heating, cooling, and humidity control while preserving long-term ground loop performance.

Aurora 64 Condensing Oil:

The Redundancy Layer. A high-efficiency backup heat source that activates automatically during outages or extreme cold. Achieves up to 90–98% fuel efficiency and can also be used independently for ground thawing.
Together, these modules form a resilient and adaptable temporary climate control system that can be tailored precisely to operational needs.

Lower risk and costs with modern temporary climate control

Lower emissions are not achieved through compromises. They are a direct result of better control.

By prioritizing low- and zero-emission energy sources and using fossil fuels only when genuinely needed, Arctic Warm reduces unnecessary fuel use, logistics, and on-site handling.

For construction projects, this typically means:

  • order-of-magnitude more predictable costs
  • easier compliance with EU reporting requirements
  • fewer deliveries and less site traffic (Lower Friction).
  • lower risk of damage caused by unstable conditions

And yes, it usually costs less too – with total project costs often reduced by up to 30% compared to traditional temporary heating solutions.

Proven on real construction sites

Arctic Warm systems are used daily on residential, commercial, and infrastructure projects where conditions cannot be left to chance.

Clients who switch to Arctic Warm are rarely, if ever, willing to let go of it after the first project. Once you experience a site where conditions are under total control and automation handles the routines, going back to traditional equipment feels like trading a smartphone for a landline. It’s not just difficult – it feels like an unnecessary risk.

“With traditional setups, there was always something to fight against. With Arctic Warm, we realized that climate control shouldn't be a combat sport. There’s no going back to the old way of doing things.”

FAQ – Temporary construction heating & climate control

Yes. The system is modular and scales from small sites to large multi-unit installations delivering hundreds of kilowatts.

Absolutely. Units can be added, relocated, or reconfigured as the site evolves. The system architecture is inherently flexible.

In most cases, yes. Oil is used only as a backup or for specific needs such as extreme cold or ground thawing. We have engineered out the need for constant oil consumption.

Deployment is fast and designed for active construction sites. Exact timelines depend on site requirements.

Aurora Block is a hydronic (water-based) system. Heat is distributed either via temporary hoses connected to hydronic fan heaters or by connecting the system directly to the building’s existing hydronic heating network. This ensures consistent, quiet, and energy-efficient heat distribution.

Since the system manages both heating and cooling, we can implement specialized drying programs. By alternating temperatures in rapid, controlled cycles, the system creates a condensation effect that extracts moisture from the air or structures far more effectively than traditional methods.

This can be done via air-to-air fans or through the building's own systems, such as hydronic underfloor heating, to dry concrete in a controlled manner. All condensed water is safely managed and routed out of the building, ensuring moisture is permanently removed from the site.

 Keep site conditions under control, whatever the weather

Arctic Warm provides temporary climate control for construction sites that reduces risk, stabilizes schedules, and makes everyday site management easier.

Stable conditions. Predictable progress. And one less thing to worry about.
