SLR SeriesInnovative, Game-Changing Rooftop HVAC System for Shuttle and School Bus Applications
Introducing the innovative SLR - a low profile,
lightweight unit that delivers durability and fuel
savings for shuttle and school bus applications.
Thermo King is the Green Leader
Thermo King offers industry-leading products and solutions that enable businesses around the world to reduce energy
consumption and costs and decrease harmful environmental emissions.
The Shuttle and Paratransit segments of the bus market have seen little change over the last two decades when it comes to air conditioning systems. The evaporator was generally located inside the bus at the back with a free-blow discharge while the condenser was located outside on the skirt of the bus near the pavement.
Thermo King’s new SLR series represents a dramatic shift from designs of the past, bringing innovative design concepts that improve safety, reduce installation time and make servicing easier.
The innovative design concepts have been packaged into one unit, making the SLR series a true “game changer” in a segment that has not seen much change for a very long time.
Thermo King offers a complete SLR product line to meet a wide range of applications including school buses, small buses, vans, ambulances, security vehicles and special purpose vehicles. These systems are supported by the industry’s largest worldwide service organization and are engineered for reliability, low maintenance and high performance for the life of the vehicle.
