Getting Your Mixer Ready for Winter

As temperatures start to drop, it's time to prepare your volumetric concrete mixer for the cold months ahead. Winter weather can cause problems for your equipment if not properly maintained. Frozen water lines, damaged components, and costly repairs can be avoided with some simple steps.

Why Winterizing Matters

Winterizing your C60 mixer is crucial for protecting it from freezing temperatures and avoiding unnecessary damage.

• Prevents Freezing Damage: Water left in the system can freeze, expand, and crack pipes, valves, and pumps.
• Saves Money: Repairs caused by cold weather damage can be costly and time-consuming. A few minutes of winter prep can save you a lot of money in repairs.
• Keeps Things Running: Properly winterized equipment is ready to go when you need it, avoiding unexpected downtime.
• Extends Equipment Life: Regular maintenance, including winterization, helps your mixer last longer and perform better.

Taking the time to winterize your equipment now means fewer headaches when you need to pour concrete during colder months.
