Freeze Protection
PTT employs a combination of tank insulation and heaters to maintain a constant temperature. The type of insulation varies with the application but includes spray applied urethane, mineral wool or the rigid polyisocyanurate panel type.
Exterior metal sheathing can be applied for a pleasing aesthetic finish with the customer’s choice of colors. PTT has developed a low cost electric immersion heater package for Fire Protection Water Tanks but also can supply industrial gas fired boilers or steam heaters depending on the product and application. All are installed by our in house factory trained technicians and crews. Call for a free estimate today.
Please see the pictures provided of the different insulation systems available.
