U.S. Chemical Storage air-conditioned chemical storage buildings allow for optimum temperature control while storing your flammables, combustibles or other hazardous materials safely. These temperature-controlled rooms save you time and money by using an air conditioner that constantly maintains temperatures ranging from 60° to 70°F. Our units help maintain the integrity of costly hazardous materials over longer periods of time. We offer two types of air conditioners. A standard AC will keep the interior about 20°F below outside temperatures. A higher capacity AC is available that can keep the interior as low as 65°F (+/- 5°F). Refrigeration units are available for temperatures below 60°F.
