November is an unpredictable month for weather in the Louisville area. Although it's uncertain how the temperatures will swing, the trend is definitely heading downward as we brace for the arrival of winter.
Several winters ago, our team at Louisville Switching wanted to be sure a fire department in rural Meade County was prepared for icy and snowy driving conditions and we installed our first Insta-Chain Automatic Ice Chains on their tanker truck. These chains allow large trucks to maneuver through snow and icy roads safely and are essential for emergency and service vehicles. Here are some of the other features and benefits of the automatic ice chains:

Last winter, Louisville Switching completed installation of our very first ice chain system. This installation was performed on a fire truck that operates in a rural part of Kentucky. The fire station needed the truck to be able to maneuver safely and quickly in almost any weather condition, especially snow and ice.
A few months ago we shared a video of our training with Tim Joyce, VP of sales and marketing for Insta-Chain Automatic Ice Chains.
