Protect your assets and brave the bitter cold temperatures using the Thermex cold weather strategy
OVERVIEW
Thermex Engineering Systems is a custom supplier of Fluid and Fuel Warming Systems, Idle Reduction Systems and Freeze Protection Systems for heavy equipment; uniquely suitable for many industries such as Mining and Exploration.
THE PROBLEM
Bitter cold and freezing temperatures can take quickly take their toll on heavy equipment. Hydraulic fluid, fuel lines and batteries can freeze up making it near impossible to keep your fleet running properly. Without using drastic measures such as overnight idling to maintain engine temperature, or running diesel heaters 24 hours a day to keep systems from locking up, there are few options available.
THE SOLUTION
Thermex systems can help you to keep your fleet of heavy equipment in top condition, avoiding costly maintenance or potential system failure and lockup during cold weather. Saving you money on maintenance, fuel costs, and equipment replacement on the job site.
