Freeze Protection: Prevent Costly Shut-Downs

In February 2021, The Texas Tribune reported that power generating companies failed to understand critical failure points that could cause equipment to stop working in cold weather - a mistake that affected 4.5 million homes and businesses.?

The headline read, “How Texas Repeatedly Failed to Protect its Power Grid”. This failure resulted in an estimated cost of over $195 billion.?

A complete freeze protection solution installed on your equipment can prevent similar costly problems. Thermon Heat Trace systems offer exceptional performance, weather-resistant features, and reliable performance in even the most extreme weather conditions.?
