TRANSPORTATION
The unique Thermavance design makes it a natural fit for seating in vehicles of all types:
-
motorcycles
-
ATVs & UTVs
-
trains, planes & buses
-
farm equipment
-
golf carts
-
construction equipment
-
other recreational vehicles
OUTDOOR APPLICATIONS
Thermavance is ideally suited for outdoors. For the first time, seats exposed to the elements may be heated or cooled by one system that is contained within most any seat design exposed to the elements. Applications include boats, motorcycles, commercial mowers, golf cars, construction equipment and agricultural equipment.
THE ADVANTAGES
Its biggest advantage is that Thermavance heats and cools through conductive heat, rather than convective heat transfer. Traditional heated and/or cooled seats rely on convective heat transfer, meaning they must first heat or cool air which, in turn, must heat or cool the seat occupant.
The use of convective energy and the reliance on air to move heat requires that manufacturers use perforated seats to move the air through the seating surface. This leaves the seat vulnerable to damage by spills, clogging, general wear-and-tear and moisture.
