Heating And Lighting Solutions For The Winter Site

As summer draws to a close and autumn sets in, construction sites and outdoor projects face new challenges.

With shorter days and cooler temperatures, it becomes essential to invest in site lighting and heating solutions that not only enhance productivity but also ensure the safety and well-being of workers. At MPH (Mr Plant Hire), North London's premier tool and plant hire company, we understand the unique demands of the season, and we're here to provide you with the right equipment to tackle autumn and winter projects with confidence.

Lighting Tower Hire

One of the standout offerings in our inventory is the GENERAC V20 lighting tower, a mobile lighting solution designed to be effective, flexible and efficient. Whether it's road construction, building projects or stadium lighting, this powerful tool is your go-to option for temporary outdoor space illumination. Here's why it's a game-changer for outdoor construction projects:

• High-Intensity LED Lights: The V20 light tower is equipped with four 320W high-efficiency LED lamp floodlights, providing an impressive illumination range. This makes it ideal for construction sites where adequate lighting is crucial for safety and productivity.

• Extended Runtime: With more than 140 hours of running time on a single tank of fuel, the V20 ensures that your project remains well-lit throughout the night without frequent refuelling, saving you time and resources.

• Low Noise: Construction sites often have strict noise regulations, especially after dark. The V20 boasts one of the lowest sound pressure levels in the industry, at only 58 dB(A) at 7 metres. This means you can light up your site without causing disruptions to nearby residents or businesses.

Lighting Towers for Sports Stadiums

While our lighting towers are indispensable for construction, they find applications beyond building sites. Sports stadiums, especially those hosting evening or night events, rely on powerful lighting solutions to provide optimal visibility for players and spectators. MPH's GENERAC V20 light tower can be used to illuminate sports fields, ensuring that every moment of the game is well-lit and captivating. From football to cricket, the V20 is a versatile tool for sports venue operators who want to ensure a seamless viewing experience, regardless of the time of day.
