Bergie's Tech Tip: Pre-Cool Before You Park! ❄️🔋

Want more runtime out of your battery HVAC system tonight? Start cooling before you shut down the engine.

Did you know?
Your battery-powered no-idle A/C can run longer if you pre-cool the cab or sleeper while the truck is still running.

The reason is simple: when you first cool a hot cab, the A/C isn’t just cooling the air—it also has to remove heat stored in the seats, mattress, dashboard, walls and other interior surfaces. Once parked, all of that cooling energy has to come from your auxiliary batteries.

Bergie’s Tip: Cool the cab to a comfortable temperature before shutting down the engine, then let the no-idle system maintain that temperature. This can reduce the initial battery load and help extend available no-idle runtime. Battery HVAC systems depend on stored energy, so managing that initial thermal load matters.

Try it on your next run and watch your battery life stretch further! 🚛⚡

Sorry for the delay on yesterday's Tech Tip—Bergie got tied up and couldn't get it out, but we're back with a big one today!

⚡ Bergie Tech Tip: Battling auxiliary HVAC low-voltage shutoffs?
Before swapping battery banks, check these 4 points: ✔️ Test voltage under load at compressor start (>0.5V drop = resistance) ✔️ Inspect lugs & fuses for oxidation/torque loss ✔️ Clear condenser debris to drop amp draw ✔️ Run dedicated grounds to the battery bank
Keep cabs cool & avoid false LVD trips! ❄️🚛

Good food, great company, and the best guest! 🐴✨

We wrapped up the season with our Bergstrom End-of-Summer Employee Picnic, complete with an incredible spread catered by Hoffman House and an afternoon of fun celebrating our amazing team.

The undisputed star of the day was Winston from BraveHearts Therapeutic Riding & Educational Center ( ), who stopped by to say hello, make new friends, and pose for plenty of photos.

A huge thank-you to Hoffman House for keeping everyone well-fed and to BraveHearts for bringing Winston out to celebrate with us and for the inspiring work you do in our community every day! 💙

Bergie’s Tech Tip: Don't skip the visual inspection before recharging your HVAC system! 🛠️

🔍 Check the basics: Inspect connections for visible signs of leakage and make sure service port caps aren't missing.
🔦 Spot the leak: Use a blue light detection flashlight paired with fluorescent-enhancing glasses to catch subtle leaks fast.
🔄 Receiver Drier rule: Always replace the receiver drier prior to recharging if any refrigerant loop components were replaced.

Doing it right the first time keeps your cab cool and prevents costly rework.
