Twister Hybrid
The latest advancement in the acclaimed Twister series not only offers ease of operation, but also a significant way to lessen your carbon imprint - meaning reduced emissions and substantial fuel costs for you. Our Twister Hybrid four fuel compressor unit (CNG/propane and/or gasoline/E85) is available with up to 100 CFM of air power, with the flexibility of a dual fuel source at the wasy flip of a switch. Your fuel will not spoil, and cleaner burning fuel ensures a longer engine life. As an added bonus, increasing your use of CNG and propane means you're helping to reduce North America's dependence on foreign petroleum sources. And more than anything, expect all of the proven reliability and distinctive options of our Twister series in the new Hybrid Fuel System.

Not only are there environmental and financial benefits of using Propane or CNG powered equipment, but also helpful safety features as well. In the event of an accident, CNG and Propane dissipates into the atmosphere, unlike gasoline or diesel fuel that pools on the ground, creating a fire hazard. Additionally natural gas and propane are neither toxic nor corrosive, and will not contaminate ground water. Tanks on propane or CNG powered vehicles are 20 times more puncture resistant than a typical gasoline or diesel tank.

Go Green
The price of petroleum based fuel options remains elevated and volatile. The long term outlook is that prices will continue to rise. Prices of propane and CNG are consistently lower than those of gasoline or diesel fuel.
Exhaust emissions from CNG or Propane powered equipment are much lower than those from gasoline or diesel powered equipment. Typically dedicated, natural gas powered equipment can reduce exhaust emissions of carbon monoxide by 70%, non-methane organic gas by 87%, nitrogen oxides by 87%, and carbon dioxide by almost 30% below those of gasoline equipment. Per unit of energy, natural gas contains less carbon than other fossil fuel, thus producing lower carbon dioxide emissions, resulting in a substantial reduction iin CO2 emissions compared to other fuels.
