Stop Losing Money: How Your Stop Losing Money: How Your TPMS Pays for Itself in Fuel and Tyre Life in Fuel and Tyre Life

For the Australian driver, every dollar counts, especially when towing a caravan or travelling long distances. But did you know that neglecting your tyre pressure is likely costing you hundreds of dollars every year in wasted fuel and prematurely destroyed rubber?

A Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) from Flatmate-TPMS is the rare investment that guarantees a positive return— That is how your TPMS pays for itself

The Hidden Costs of Driving Blind & How Your TPMS Pays for Itself

You are paying a hidden tax every kilometre you drive without accurate, real-time pressure data. This "tyre tax" comes from two primary sources:

1. The Fuel Tax: Why Under-Inflation Kills Your Range

• 
  

  The Science of Loss: Fuel efficiency is reduced by one per cent for every 20 kPa (2.9 PSI) of under-inflation. When you consider that caravan tyres constantly lose pressure and temperature changes cause massive PSI shifts, you are almost always running low.

  
  
• 
  

  Wasted Energy: Under-inflated tyres increase rolling resistance, forcing your tow vehicle's engine to work harder and GUARANTEEING higher fuel costs.

  
  
• 
  

  The Correction: A manual gauge checked once a month at a service station is simply too slow to catch these costly drops.

  
  

2. The Replacement Tax: Destroying Your Assets

• Uneven Wear: When your tyres are under-inflated, the edges of the tread wear out faster than the middle. This accelerates the tyre's degradation and shortens its lifespan.

  
  
• 
  

  Thermal Overload: The friction from under-inflation creates dangerous heat. This heat weakens the tyre structure itself, leading to premature ply separation and casing breakdown—meaning you have to replace your expensive tyres years before you should.

  
  

The Flatmate TPMS: Guaranteed Return on Investment (ROI) (& How Your TPMS Pays for Itself )

A Flatmate TPMS shifts the balance from unpredictable costs to guaranteed savings by providing Real-Time Monitoring.

• Saves Fuel: Our system alerts you to small drops instantly. By maintaining optimal pressure daily, you immediately minimize rolling resistance and save up to 5% or more on your annual fuel bill.

  
  
• 
  

  Extends Tyre Life: You eliminate the uneven wear caused by driving on inconsistent pressure, maximizing the lifespan of your tyres and delaying costly replacements.

  
  
• 
  

  Prevents Disaster: The biggest saving is avoiding the WORST-CASE SCENARIO. Catching a slow leak before it becomes a blowout saves you the cost of the destroyed tyre, the wheel rim damage, and the towing fees.

  
  

Don't treat safety as an expense. Treat it as a necessary asset protection that pays for itself.

Final Action Required: Stop losing money and risking everything. Flatmate-TPMS guarantees your safety and your savings.
