Increasing Driver Comfort

Add an APU Air Tower

Adding an APU Air Tower to the TriPac® air conditioning system will result in improved temperature management and increased driver comfort.

Since cold air is heavier than warm air, the semi-truck APU has to work very hard to push the air up above the bunk. The APU Air Tower improves air circulation reducing APU run time by up to 22%.

To order or learn more, contact your local Thermo King dealer.

Comforts of Home...on the Road

A Thermo King inverter utilizes pure sine wave plus gives you the power to plug in your devices just like you do at home. Whether you want to recharge your phone, heat food in a microwave or plug in a sleep apnea machine, the type of power the inverter uses is important.

"Long Haul Trucking has always worked to make sure our drivers have the comforts of home, at least as many as we can get in a truck, which is why we choose TriPac units for our trucks."

- Jason Michels, Long Haul Trucking Vice President
