WINTREX®
- Chemical Family
- Mixtures & Blends
WINTREX® heat transfer fluid is an inhibited ethylene glycol designed for use in hydronic systems for freeze and corrosion protection. The effectiveness of WINTREX® heat transfer fluid in preventing corrosion has been proven both in use and in laboratory testing. Using WINTREX® in place of brine solutions or uninhibited glycol/water solutions lowers maintenance costs and improves heat transfer efficiency.

- HIGHLIGHTS
WINTREX® includes a fluorescent yellow dye, for leak detection. WINTREX® is designed to protect components commonly found in residential and commercial systems. WINTREX can also be used with aluminum at temperatures below 150°F (66°C). At temperatures above 150°F (66°C), use of WINTREX® is not recommended because the inhibitors will not fully protect aluminum components in the system. WINTREX® should not be used with galvanized steel.
