3rd Generation TriPac® APU

Our newest diesel TriPac APU provides the same comfort and performance our APUs are known for, plus enhancements to reduce emissions, monitor unit performance and increase profitability.

TriPac Envidia® All-Electric APU

A clean, reliable electric APU that saves fuel while delivering unmatched driver comfort previously unavailable in an electric unit

Increasing driver comfort

Add an APU Air Tower

Adding an Air Tower to the TriPac® air conditioning system helps improve temperature management and increased driver comfort.

Cold air is heavier than warm air. So the semi-truck auxiliary power unit has to work very hard to push the air up above the bunk. The Air Tower improves air circulation reducing APU run time by up to 22%.

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

The 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.
