ALGAE-X - The Clear Choice For Clean Fuel

Replacing filters and cleaning tanks have become acceptable solutions for dealing with poor diesel fuel quality.  The fact is that these are early warning signs of seriously degraded fuel quality.  Fuel, an organic compound, is susceptible to deterioration just like milk.  Water, oxidation, microbes, and chemicals  are just a few influences that contribute to the polymerization and stratification of diesel fuel resulting in poor fuel quality, sledge, and acids that destroy engine components and performance.  All of which Cost You Money.
Degraded diesel fuel quality is usually noticed when the color and clarity of fuel has shifted from clear & bright to dark and cloudy.
Diesel fuel starts to deteriorate and form solids within 60-90 days after refining. As this change occurs, particulates increase in size & mass.  You will notice heavy deposits in filters, sludge forming in tanks and other fuel system components requiring increased maintenance and poor engine performance.


In a recent survey conducted at a NAOSHM trade show the question was asked "What percentage of your unscheduled service calls are caused by fuel related problems (clogged filters, nozzles, and strainers)?"
ANSWER: 46.4%

ALGAE-X Fuel Conditioning will reverse the degradation process and restore & stabilize the overall quality of fuels. The patented fuel conditioners work in conjunction with filters and separators to ensure that your fuel is free of particulates, sediments and water.  A better alternative is through fuel polishing.  Onboard fuel polishing will help ensure that your engine is getting the best diesel fuel possible.
With higher quality fuel going to your engine you can almost see the savings. From increased efficiency to less down time to lower fuel injection system repair costs, Algae-X products will work for you.  Visit our FAQ page for answers to commonly asked questions about ALGAE-X products.

Engines1 & WBD have sold and installed multiple systems over many and industries applications.  We have the experience with ALGAE-X Fuel Conditioning Equipment to provide the complete solution for providing your diesel engine with optimum quality fuel.
