Yes, cellar coolings are financed as a standard asset purchase, usually on hire purchase or a lease, with the machine itself acting as the security. UK prices typically run £1,350 to £6,000, and most deals are written over 12–60 months with a deposit of around 10–20%. Decisions typically take 24–48 hours. Used machines are financeable too, usually with a shorter term.

Guide prices for sizing a finance agreement, not quotes. Manufacturers in this market mostly price on application, so where a current UK list price could not be confirmed the row describes a specification class rather than naming a model. Your supplier quote is what the agreement is written against.

Cellar cooling equipment qualifies for Annual Investment Allowance (AIA), letting you deduct the full cost from taxable profits in year one, up to £1,000,000. HP allows capital allowances. Lease payments are fully deductible against profit.
Every pub serving cask or keg beer needs cellar cooling to keep it at the correct temperature, so demand comes from both new openings and replacement of ageing compressors, which are one of the more failure-prone parts of a pub's back-of-house. Systems from the established UK suppliers are fitted specifically to the cellar they serve, but the compressor and control unit are standard equipment with a reasonable resale market, so financing them is generally straightforward once you separate the equipment from any pipework installation.
Some specialist lenders consider businesses with imperfect credit histories. You may need a larger deposit or personal guarantee, but options may be available. Fundably may use a soft credit check for matching, which does not affect your credit score. A hard check may happen if you choose to proceed with a lender.
