Top 6 Steps Before Buying Your TPMS

Before investing in any Tyre Pressure Monitoring System, highly successful buyers follow these six steps to ensure their rig is fully protected. Here are 6 Steps Before Buying Your TPMS.


  • Determine Your Rig's Signal Needs: You must calculate the total length of your rig (tow vehicle plus caravan) to know if you require an extended range TPMS. Don't risk frustrating signal dropouts. The Flatmate Aura offers an unmatched 25-metre range to conquer most setups.


  • Define Your Sensor Type: Decide whether you need External Sensors (for easy, fast, DIY installation and airing up/down) or Internal Sensors (for concealed, permanent installation). Flatmate offers both options across its range to suit your specific needs.


  • Confirm Pressure Capacity: Especially for towing, verify the system can handle your maximum required PSI. You must ensure the unit can accurately read pressures in your required range, which may exceed 80 PSI for heavy loads. Our systems are built to monitor high pressures, ensuring reliable data for heavy loads.


  • Confirm the Guarantee: Never buy a TPMS without a powerful Risk-Reversal Guarantee. Look for coverage that goes beyond standard warranty, like the Flatmate 180 day money back guarantee.


  • Look for Thermal Safety: Ensure the system actively monitors and displays the tyre temperature in real-time. This is the life-saving feature that detects the #1 cause of blowouts (heat from under-inflation) and failing wheel bearings.


  • Contact Our Experts Today: To eliminate all guesswork and confirm your specific requirements, message our team immediately. We can personally verify your sensor count and ensure you choose the model (Aura, Overwatch, Sentinel or Guardian) that perfectly matches your mounting preference and towing needs.
