Why Choose a Container with Bard HVAC?

Adding climate control to a shipping container is an excellent investment for year-round usability, but custom installations require time and labor . In contrast, this unit comes with the HVAC system already fitted – a self-contained, energy-efficient Bard unit that delivers up to 55,000 BTU of cooling (5 tons) . Consequently, the 40ft high cube dimensions (9ft 6in exterior, approx. 8ft 10in interior height) provide substantial internal capacity for storage or workspace. Bard units are designed specifically for wall-mount applications, keeping valuable indoor floor space clear . Thus, you gain a climate-ready container with no installation lead time.

Key Features of This Insulated Container

The 5-ton Bard HVAC unit and high cube insulation are the defining features of this unit. The Bard unit is a self-contained heating and cooling system that offers maximum indoor comfort without using valuable indoor floor space or outside ground space . The container features 100-120mm of polyurethane foam insulation in walls, floor, and ceiling – standard in reefer containers . The aluminium T-bar floor ensures even air distribution, while rubber-sealed doors maintain the insulated envelope. The CSC safety plate confirms structural integrity for stacking and lifting.

5 Ton Bard HVAC – Specifications

The 5-ton Bard unit is a powerful climate control solution for 40ft containers. The unit delivers up to 55,000 BTU of cooling capacity, typically operates on 208/230V single phase or 460V 3-phase power, with a 60 amp breaker recommended . The vertical wall-mount design (approximately 84 inches tall) saves interior floor space. Models may include scroll compressor technology for efficiency and reliability . For full specifications, consult a licensed HVAC contractor .

As-Is Condition – What to Expect

“As-is” condition means the unit is sold without warranties or performance guarantees. For example, the Bard HVAC unit may be in working condition, require service, or be non-operational – sold as-is for its insulation and container value . The insulated container itself remains structurally sound and weatherproof. If you need guaranteed functionality, consider our refurbished or new units. For budget-conscious buyers willing to service or replace the HVAC unit, as-is offers exceptional value.

CSC Certification and Static Use

CSC plates confirm structural safety for intermodal transport. This 40ft high cube insulated container includes a valid CSC safety plate at time of sale . The plate confirms structural integrity for stacking and lifting. While the insulated container can be shipped, the as-is HVAC condition may affect shipping certification. For ground-based storage, CSC certification ensures build quality.
