Ladies and Gentlemen,
By this letter attached, Espar is proud to announce that they have received Approval from the California Air Resource Board for their large Hydronic M II series of heaters, which includes the Hydronic 8, 10 and 12; 27,300 BTU/hr, 32,450 BTU/hr and 42,000 BTU/hr respectively. Espars E-Guardian series of heaters tailored specifically for the school bus market feature these range of heaters!
These coolant heaters are ideal for larger applications like School Bus, Transit and Motor Coach. The heaters meet every demand of school boards and state pupil transportation organizations across North America. Espars Independent Fuel Operated Heating Systems enable drivers to pre-heat their school buses offering warm starts, defrosted windows and a safe and comfortable environment for students, all without engine idling. These systems can also offer savings in fuel reduction and harmful diesel emissions.
Espar was the first Fuel Operated Heater manufacturer to have their Airtronic D2 and D4 as well as their Hydronic 5 approved by the California Air Resource Board. They were then the first to have their larger Airtronic 5 (18,800 BTU/hr forced air heater) come into compliance and now are the only fuel operated heater manufacturer to have their larger 42,000 BTU/hr heater come into compliance.
Espar heaters are designed for mobile applications such as truck, bus and automotive, the systems utilize 12 or 24 volt battery systems and gasoline or diesel as an on-board fuel. They operate as diesel or gasoline furnaces with sealed combustion chambers. Espar air heaters use forced air as a heating medium while the Espar coolant heaters circulate the engine coolant to transfer heat.
