Here at Altech-Eco we are dedicated to the development and growth of alternative energy for the transportation sector. We promote a cleaner and healthier environment by utilizing only EPA and CARB approved CNG conversion systems for vehicles. By Driving a Natural Gas Vehicle you will have a positive impact on America's air quality, security, & environment.
By using Altech-Eco’s EPA/CARB approved CNG conversions systems, US consumers will have the opportunity not only to help the environment but also to significantly reduce dependency on foreign oil, while saving significant money at the fuel pump. CNG is cheaper as a fuel and has been proven to produce significantly less harmful emissions of pollutants like nitrogen oxides (NOx), particulate matter (PM), carbon dioxide (CO2), hydrocarbons (UHC), carbon monoxide (CO), and sulfur oxides (SOx) as compared to gasoline or diesel fuel.
Making America less dependent on foreign oil is a national priority. In his 2006 State-of-the-Union address, President Bush stated that we are “addicted to oil,” and his Administration is dedicated to reducing that addiction. Congress, too, is strongly on record in support of reducing petroleum use, and has passed a number of pieces of legislation to encourage Americans to move to non-petroleum fuels. While in 2005, the U.S. imported over 65 percent of the oil it used, 97 percent of the natural gas used in the U.S. was produced in North America (85 percent from the U.S. and 12 percent from Canada). Every gallon equivalent of natural gas used in vehicles is one less gallon of petroleum that has to be imported.
Altech-Eco is an authorized Ford QVM (Quality Vehicle Modifier) as a developer and installer. As a QVM developer we are responsible for the CNG engine calibrations, all on-dynamometer calibration testing, meet all Ford engineering requirements and development of a vehicle component package. All CNG calibrations are created in collaboration with Ford approved QCM's (Qualified Calibration Modifiers). This means Altech-Eco is utilizing Ford authorized calibration software to flash the ECU (Engine Control Unit) with our certified calibrations and not illegally performing unauthorized flashes of the original vehicle calibration. The alternative fuel engine controller we use with our CNG conversion systems is a Ford developed and tested product.
Ford is offering a suite of vehicles with engine prep packages that are capable of operating on CNG. These engines come with hardened exhaust valves and valve seats for improved wear resistance and durability for gaseous fuel systems. This insures the original Ford Engine and Powertrain Limited Warranty of 5 years or 60,000 miles remains intact.
Altech-Eco is registered with the EPA and CARB as a Small Volume Manufacturer (SVM). Altech-Eco engineers, develops and certifies CNG conversion systems for vehicles.
Altech-Eco Conversion Systems are produced by Altech-Eco and are not a Ford Motor Company manufactured product.
