What are the advantages of Viesa Parking coolers in comparision to other brands?
The Viesa parking coolers are suitable for trucks differ from the competition on a number of elements. The Viesa park coolers has the following advantages:
- Viesa parking coolers are equipped with a special compressor. This eliminates the need to mount the park cooler on a flat surface. This is because many trucks do not have a flat roof. A truck roof is often not completely straight. The big advantage of the Viesa parking cooler is therefore that they can also be mounted on sloping roofs.
- The Viesa parking cooler can be mounted on top of the truck cabin's roof hatch. The design of the Viesa cab cooler minimises the loss of interior space on the inside of the cabin.
- The Viesa cab cooler is further distinguished by its low weight.
How does a Viesa Parking cooler works?
A Viesa Parking cooler works separately from a truck's built-in air conditioning system. A Viesa cab cooler is therefore an addition to a truck's air-conditioning system and not a replacement!
A parking cooler runs on the truck's electrical system (the battery). So the truck's engine does not have to run while the driver is taking a rest. This saves a huge amount in fuel costs on an annual basis (an average of 264 litres of diesel per month).
The disadvantage of a parking cooler is that they are not capable of cooling a cabin! Cab coolers are only capable of keeping a cabin at a certain temperature. So it is important that the cabin has been brought to the right temperature by the truck's built-in air conditioner beforehand.

Based on this calculation, he thus consumes 12 litres of diesel (8 hours x 1.5 litres per hour) per night. So in a month, this is 264 litres of diesel saved (22 days x 12 litres per night). The current diesel price is €1.45. So per month, a Viesa parking cooler saves €382.80.
