In an effort to increase fuel efficiency through promoting nitrogen tire inflation, Parker Hannifin Corp. has joined the Get Nitrogen Institute.

The mission of the Denver-based non-profit group, Get Nitrogen Institute, is to provide information to automotive consumers and providers about the benefits of using nitrogen to inflate tires. Filling tires with nitrogen increases fuel efficiency because it allows tires to maintain proper air pressure longer. Government statistics indicate that Americans could save 3.7 billion gallons of gasoline a year by simply keeping tires properly inflated. Completely dry and safer than air, Nitrogen helps make this possible.
Parker has enthusiastically joined the Get Nitrogen Institute and is producing nitrogen generators, under the TireSaver and TireSafe brand names, to be installed at many auto dealers and automotive repair shops. Parker has over 10,000 nitrogen generators in production worldwide. For more information visit the company's website at www.parkertiresaver.com.
