Nitrogen gas has been touted as a great way to maintain tire pressure in passenger vehicles. The use of nitrogen gas is not without controversy, but it is becoming a popular alternative. In order to help offset the costs for installing nitrogen gas tire inflation systems, Pennsylvania is offering grants to companies in the state that sell tires.

“Automotive service providers who sell tires in Pennsylvania can apply to be reimbursed for a portion of their cost to purchase tire inflation systems that deliver at least 95 percent nitrogen according to manufacturer specifications. Eligible applicants with a 50 percent match of the total cost may request up to $5,000 for systems purchased and installed after July 1, 2008. A total of $100,000 is available for grants in each of the next three years.” Source: PR Newswire
