Why Climloc
Three differences that matter during a heatwave.
01
2h delivery, no agency run
With Kiloutou, you usually collect the AC from a local agency by car or van. Climloc arrives at your door on a cargo-bike within 2h of confirmation, anywhere in central Paris.
02
Installed by a technician
Duct and window-seal setup isn't part of a Kiloutou rental. Our delivery-technicians install it cleanly on the spot - you don't touch anything.
03
Stock when it's 35°C outside
Kiloutou's AC units share stock with construction demand year-round, which is why they're regularly out during heatwaves. Our fleet is dedicated to Paris and to the summer season.
Honestly
When Kiloutou is a better fit.
If you're outside the Paris region, on a construction site, or you need heavy BTP equipment (cherry picker, generator, jackhammer…) alongside the AC, a general rental like Kiloutou is still the right call - they have 500+ agencies across France.
Climloc focuses on one thing only: renting portable AC units in Paris, with fast delivery and installation. If your need is "have it cool at home or at the office tomorrow", that's exactly what we're built for.
