Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1Is this compatible with all terminals?

API bottom loading is the global standard. We use OPW or Emco Wheaton couplers accepted worldwide.

Q2Can I still top-load if needed?

Yes, manholes remain accessible for occasional top loading as backup.

Q3What training is required?

Drivers familiar with top loading adapt quickly. We provide operational videos and manuals.

Q4Does vapor recovery add significant cost?

The VR system is integrated into the design with minimal cost impact versus the compliance benefits.
