Alarms at Night

Super_Single_Painted.JPGThe cold air really affects our tires and once we installed the Pressure Pro air monitoring system this lesson was really driven home.  The Pressure Pro system had a very loud, obnoxious alarm that goes off when the air pressure get below twenty-five percent of the normal air pressure.  The cold air really effects the air in the tires and this usually does not happen until about four in the morning.  I then have to leap out of bed and open the curtains (we have curtains to keep the warm air inside the sleeper) and enter the freezing cab and unplug the Pressure Pro.  By the time I return to bed, I am almost frozen.  The temperature has to be very cold for this phenomenon to happen and luckily we are not often sleeping in this severe of weather.  The alarm is very obnoxious, but the purpose for the Pressure Pro makes the leap out of bed worth it.  The peace of mind of having this system coupled with the wide based singles makes all of this worth it.
