At Superior its not always new coolant. At my terminals shop they have a pump mounted on a small drum where they pump coolant into the drum to drain a tank and reuse it to charge one.

No way, I'm kinda picky who I exchange fluids with...
i had intranst heat on my old truck back at chemical Leaman and the 3 loads that I did I never opened the valves to use it. Got the loads there in temp range without it.... Wow I made $75 for nothing.
With the prices/ problems with the new engines I'd never agree to it......Derailed Thanks this. -
I am sure if you were O/O they would use fresh coolant if you asked them provided the tank wasn't already charged. It wouldn't be an issue for the O/O guys who work out of my terminal anyway. Its all drop/hook or customer load/unload for those guys. Some don't even have pumps or air compressors on the truck.

Miller pays for the new coolant. If you are at a tank wash that charges, just give them a PO and have it done there. If you are out on the road somewhere, just stop at a T/s and grab a case of coolant and charge it yourself. They will reimburse you the cost of the coolant.

I guess that would make it a little more comforting knowing your dealing with new coolant. How many gallons does it take to recharge a trailer?
-
The heat pans take 5 gallons. So, if you stop and buy a case of 6 and charge it yourself you have an extra gallon left over. They will pay for the case and never ask about the extra.Derailed Thanks this.

What's the pay these days for a truck pump or compressor unload?
I think that was $25 at the time also .....antonio Thanks this. -
I actually haven't done a truck pump in probably 4 months, or a truck air off either. I don't remember exactly, I think Miller charges $75 and we get 63%.Cat sdp Thanks this.
