Why Use a Crankcase Heater?
Crankcase heaters are a critical safeguard for refrigeration compressors. During extended off periods, refrigerant can migrate into the compressor oil, causing oil dilution and potential damage on startup. Installing a properly rated crankcase heater eliminates this risk, extending compressor life and reducing costly service calls.
