With winter on the way HELLA Ireland is reminding garages about the importance of checking coolant and antifreeze with a special promotion on Prestone products.

It is just as essential to keep a watch on coolant levels as it is for oil. Coolant is crucial to the health of an engine as without it engines can suffer extreme damage, even when the temperature outside is moderate. Coolant quality is essential for modern engines and many vehicle manufacturers now recommend different coolant specs. This can be a headache for independent garages to choose the correct coolant, but with Prestone from HELLA Ireland, one product does all vehicle makes and models, and this is guaranteed by Prestone who are the biggest manufacturer of coolant in the world and supply all leading OEM‘s with their cooling products.

The primary role of an engine coolant is to help cool the engine and disperse the heat energy generated from the combustion process. Without it the engine will overheat leading to severe damage. Prestone coolant/antifreeze will protect an engine up to 129°C. A good quality engine coolant also resists freezing temperatures. In extreme weather, Prestone coolant/antifreeze will protect an engine down to -37°C.

HELLA Ireland says that by selecting  Prestone customers can take the guess work out of choosing the correct coolant simply by using Prestone coolant in either concentrate or pre-mixed format. Prestone Coolant/Antifreeze mixes with all colours of coolant/antifreeze and is compatible with all makes and models of passenger vehicle.
