Are you that captain?

This never is a problem if no ground aircon is supplied and the temps above 24/25 degrees. Even at the strictest airports they give you permission to cool the cabin once you explain your situation. Read your AOI pages, there's always a frequency or a phone number to call to ask for permission.
