HydraMaster GTXR+ - Operating the GTXR+ in Hot Weather

Installation Information: 2-2
OPERATING THEGTXR + IN HOT WEATHER
HydraMaster recommends the following steps when operating the GTXR + during periods
of hot weather (95º F or higher). This will help ensure that your GTXR + continues to run
at 100% capacity during even the hottest days.
1. A minimum of 9” (22.9 cm) of clearance is required on both sides of the GTXR +,
when installed. Ensure that additional equipment or other materials are not stored
at the sides or on top of the GTXR +. Unobstructed airow around the unit is critical
for cooling the engine and other components.
2. For side-door vans with “barn doors”, open the doors as wide as their construction
will allow. Be sure to open the doors beyond their standard “straight-out” position,
if possible, by releasing the stops and putting the doors in their fully extended
position.
3. Provide cross-ventilation. When possible, keeping the rear doors open while
theGTXR + is running will substantially reduce the temperature inside the van and
will provide a path for cooling air ow. For rear-mount installations, open up the
other doors in the van.
4. Consider adding powered roof vents to the vehicle (if not already installed). These
vents can signicantly reduce interior temperatures and will result in much cooler
operation.
