Iron Comfort Systems

$10,000 DOLLARS SAVED!

Idling a truck can burn 0.8–1 gallon of diesel per hour. An APU or diesel heater uses a fraction of that. Over weeks and months, this alone can save thousands per year in fuel.

A typical diesel truck burns close to 1 gallon per hour while idling.
If a driver idles for 10 hours per day, over 250 workdays, that’s:

2,500 gallons of diesel per year, often $10,000 or more in fuel costs alone.

Now if you have a fleet of 10 trucks? That's around $100,000 saved!

Reducing idle time with an APU or auxiliary system cuts fuel use, engine wear, and operating costs immediately.

DEF & Emissions Wear

Extended idling keeps the emissions system active, increasing DEF consumption and forcing more frequent DPF regenerations. Over time, this raises operating costs and increases the risk of clogged filters, fault codes, and emissions-related downtime.

Reducing idle hours with an APU or auxiliary system lowers DEF use and reduces strain on emissions components.

Engine Wear From Idling

Idle time still counts as engine wear. Prolonged idling leads to fuel dilution, carbon buildup, and increased internal wear.

A common estimate is:
1 hour of idling ≈ 25–30 miles of engine wear

At 10 idle hours per day over 250 days, that’s 60,000+ miles of wear per year without driving.
