Oval Tanks
Many other companies use a flat bottom tank which is cheaper to build. However when spraying with units with flat bottom tanks it is impossible to drain the tank and there is always 2-3" of material remaining in the tank. Turbo Turf uses oval tanks on the 300 - 1600 gallon units and on the 50, 100 and 200 gallon units we use a square sprayer tank elevated and with a sump. All Turbo Turf tanks will drain completely
Pumps
Many other companies use pumps that are designed for turf sprayers and are not ideal for an anti-icing sprayer. Turbo Turf uses Ace coated centrifugal pumps and Banjo poly centrifugal pumps with the gas engine units. The pressures are ideal and will minimize misting yet deliver power for the most demanding applications.
Turbo Turf's units with an electric pump have a much higher output without an excessive power drain. The pump on most units comes with a 5 year manufacturer's warranty.
Frames
Turbo Turf's Anti-Icing / De-Icing sprayers have a frame made of structural steel for long life. They have a front fork slot for easy loading and unloading. As an option frames are available with a galvanized coating. The frame is completely assembled and then hot dip galvanized so everything is coated. Even stainless steel frames are not as weather protected because they lose the anti-rust protection at corners where they are welded or bent.
Booms

Turbo Turf's boom selection is one of the best on the market. Our most popular boom is the turret boom that allows the user to dial in one of three nozzle choices in seconds. That way you can quickly go from a low speed nozzle for parking lots to a high speed nozzle for roads or can change from a fan nozzle to a straight nozzle. Turning the nozzles half way shuts them off so if you want to go from the standard 5 nozzle set up to two nozzles spraying the wheel tracks to conserve material it is a quick and easy adjustment. Extender nozzles are available to convert the boom to 3 lane operation while still maintaining the protection of a narrow profile.
Turbo Turf's turret boom shields the nozzles to minimize snow and ice collecting on the boom. The boom mounts to a standard truck receiver and the height can be adjusted by changing pins on the mounting. Turbo Turf has the best booms on the market.
Features
Turbo Turf Anti-Icing sprayers have features that make it easy to use. All gas powered units are capable of self filling. If you have your anti-icing material stored in a tank you only need a hose and not a separate pump to fill your unit. All plumbing is poly for long life.
