I’m trading trucks and would like to know everyone’s opinion on these two APU’s. I have a Carrier now it’s done good, just looking at the TK because of the inverter option to be installed with the TK and the Carrier dealer I use does not offer that option. I appreciate any help in advance guys.
Carrier or Thermo King APU?

Espar bunk heater for cold
Bump idle for ac for over night
Find hotel with pool and bar for longer than overnight.
Other option would be a roof mount with a generator, but by the time you break even on an apu it will be scrapLast edited: Nov 4, 2020
Snailexpress and Cat sdp Thank this. -
mwhjr1988 Thanks this.

the bunk heaters do work well for the cooler weather though and will run all night on about a quart of fuel, anything much below the teens/single digits you are going to idle anyways so you don’t gel up -

I'm having deja vu. Haven't we discussed APU's about 3 times lately?
