Why is a Parking Air Conditioner Essential for Truck Drivers?

As the summer heatwave sweeps across, drivers are faced with many challenges brought about by high temperatures. On hot summer days, the temperature inside a vehicle can quickly rise to unbearable levels, affecting not only comfort but also potentially posing a threat to the health and safety of drivers. Therefore, parking air conditioner is gaining more and more attention.

What is Parking Air Conditioner?

As the name suggests, parking air conditioner is a air conditioning system designed specifically for use when parked. Its main difference from traditional in-vehicle air conditioner is that it can provide continuous cooling for drivers and passengers even when the engine is turned off.

What are the Benefits of Parking Air Conditioner?

In the first place, Cost Saving. Truck parking coolers operate independently, powered by 12v and 24v DC batteries. There is no need for fuel, oil, or engine idling. They greatly help drivers save a significant amount on fuel costs.

Moreover, Easy Installation Without Occupying Cabin Space. Typically installed at the sunroof position on the roof, due to its high integration, it does not require indoor cabin space, so it is not particularly conspicuous, and both installation and use are more convenient. If the vehicle comes with a sunroof, simply remove it, install foam rubber strips, apply sealant, and connect the power cable to the battery to complete the installation. If there is no sunroof, a cutting space is needed at the sunroof location.

In addition, Comfort. Compared to traditional in-vehicle air conditioning, parking air conditioning does not rely on the power of the vehicle’s engine but only requires the battery to meet the power needs; It is quieter than traditional in-vehicle air conditioning, which can better bring a comfortable experience.
