Air compressors play an important role in many workplaces, from heavy industry, panel shops and factories to construction sites and well drilling. Whether you need an electric or a portable unit, the IAS rental fleet can support your requirements.
But there is more to rental than just having a compressor to rent, so let’s dig into why the following factors are essential to saving you the customer, money and frustration.
Fuel Efficient Air Compressor Rental Solutions
Renting eliminates the need for CAPEX. The largest cost to the customer will then be the running cost, which typically exceeds the daily hire cost. For this reason, whether diesel or electric, operating efficiency is extremely critical.
ELGi portable diesel compressors are engineered with a focus on fuel efficiency and performance in demanding applications like drilling, mining, and construction ELGi PG Series – Efficiency. This results because of:
- Use of proven airend rotor profiles (η-V) that optimise compression and reduce the work needed to produce compressed air, lowering fuel usage.
- Stepless capacity control that matches output with demand, which further lowers fuel consumption during partial-load operation.
- Diesel engines are matched with the compressor airend to optimise operating rpm and load for better overall efficiency.
- Compressors are the most fuel efficient when running close to their rated output. Running a large compressor with very low demand wastes fuel in unload periods. You can count on expert advice from the IAS Rental Team to ensure you receive the correct unit for your specific application.
Nationwide Compressor Support
Our fully qualified Service team is available to travel nationwide at short notice to attend to a breakdown. Customers can also receive immediate technical support and problem solving guidance telephonically. However, Customers can expect that our turnaround on responding to their needs will far exceed expectations. Quality of response and speed in attending to issues are the attributes that set IAS apart.
Reliable Air Compressor Rental with Scheduled Servicing
IAS ensures that all our units are serviced at the correct service intervals to address unit reliability and so that Customers benefit from lower operating costs, because:
- Dirty air filters, poor cooling conditions, and infrequent maintenance can raise fuel usage and lower compressor efficiency.
- Using the correct engine coolant and oils, ensuring correct fluid levels and operating within ambient temperature specifications also helps maintain performance.
Rental units are serviced according to OEM specifications. Running hours are constantly tracked and a Service Technician will plan with Customers to travel to site and carry out a service in the shortest possible time frame.
Pre Hire Inspections and Proven Compressor Reliability
To ensure the highest reliability of our Rental units we also complete a full inspection before sending it out to a customer site. This report is shared with our customers. Rental units are fully inspected, serviced and repaired upon each return and any damage (excluding normal wear and tear) is assessed with the Customer. This report is also shared with Customers for complete end to end collaboration and transparency.
Rapid Air Compressor Breakdown Support and Replacement Units
In the event of a breakdown, the IAS Service Team is committed to restoring the unit to service as quickly as possible or, where necessary, providing a replacement unit. The Root Cause Analysis and eliminating repeat breakdowns remains a concurrent priority.
Wide Range of Air Compressor Rental Options Available
There are two aspects to availability that are important to Customers:
- IAS has a large selection of rental units from low to high pressure and with a wide range of flow rates to ensure we can meet your requirements. We will source another unit if all existing fleet are out on rental.
- Making sure that our units perform when they need to is because of our attention to the preceding points of “Speed and Responsiveness”, “Service and Reliability” and “Breakdowns”.

Not all customers are familiar with compressor startup and shutdown procedures. Whilst not complicated, it is necessary to follow the correct startup and shutdown procedures to avoid damage to the unit and ensure trouble free operation: IAS Rental and Service staff will gladly provide training free of charge to our rental customers. Full instruction videos are also available here.
