If you’re operating trucks, generators, or heavy equipment around Youngstown, you already know how quickly overheating and emissions faults can disrupt schedules. Ellet Radiator is based in Akron, and we regularly help customers across Northeast Ohio who need dependable service on radiators, coolers, tanks, and diesel aftertreatment components.
When you need the work done correctly—without guessing—our shop can help you repair, restore, or replace the cooling and emissions components that keep your equipment productive.
Call (330) 784-8226 and tell us what you’re running and what symptoms you’re seeing.
HEAVY-DUTY RADIATOR REPAIR, CLEANING & RECORE (YOUNGSTOWN AREA SUPPORT):
A radiator can look “fine” and still cause overheating. Internal restriction, external debris, old cores, and hidden damage can reduce heat transfer until the engine starts climbing past safe temps.
Ellet Radiator provides heavy-duty radiator service for Youngstown-area customers, including:
- Radiator cleaning to remove restriction and improve efficiency
- Radiator repairs for leaks, cracks, worn connections, and damage
- Radiator recore services to restore full cooling performance when a core is beyond cleaning
If your equipment is heating up on routes like I-80, I-76, I-680, or during heavy job-site use in the Mahoning Valley, a proper radiator inspection is often the quickest path to a real fix.
CHARGE AIR COOLERS / AIR-TO-AIR COOLERS (CAC):
Charge air coolers (intercoolers) help diesels run efficiently by cooling the air before it enters the engine. When a CAC is restricted or compromised, it can contribute to power loss, elevated temps, and inconsistent performance.
We support CAC cleaning/repair and replacement guidance for semi truck and heavy equipment applications. If you suspect intake cooling issues, we can help you confirm the problem and restore reliable operation.
OIL COOLERS & HYDRAULIC COOLERS (SEMI + HEAVY EQUIPMENT):
Oil and hydraulic fluid temperatures are a big deal in real-world work. When a cooler isn’t doing its job, systems run hotter, parts wear faster, and failures get expensive.
We provide service and support for:
- Oil cooler cleaning and repair
- Hydraulic cooler cleaning and repair
- Related cooler/heat exchanger components used in heavy-duty applications
If you’re seeing rising oil temps, hot hydraulics under load, or repeated heat-related shutdowns, cooler service can protect your engine and hydraulic systems.
HYDRAULIC & FUEL TANK CLEANING, REPAIR & FABRICATION:
Dirty or damaged tanks can create recurring problems throughout the system—clogged filters, premature pump wear, injector issues, and more.
We offer:
- Hydraulic tank cleaning and repair
- Fuel tank cleaning and repair
- Fabrication and modification services to address real-world equipment needs
If your tank has contamination, corrosion, or physical damage, we can help restore function and reduce costly downstream failures.
DPF, DOC & SCR CLEANING (DIESEL AFTERTREATMENT SUPPORT):
Aftertreatment restrictions can quickly lead to warning lights, poor regen behavior, and derates—especially for equipment doing frequent stop-and-go or heavy-load work.
Ellet Radiator supports service for:
- DPF (Diesel Particulate Filters)
- DOC (Diesel Oxidation Catalysts)
- SCR components (Selective Catalytic Reduction systems)
If your equipment is struggling with regens or emissions faults in the Youngstown area, we can help you determine whether cleaning and inspection is the right next step.
NEW PARTS IN STOCK (RADIATORS, CHARGE AIR COOLERS, DPF FILTERS):
When repair isn’t the best option—or you need to minimize downtime—we can help with new parts for many applications, including:
- New radiators
- New charge air coolers / intercoolers
- New DPF filters and related diesel emissions components
Call with your equipment details (and part number if you have it) and we’ll help confirm availability and fitment.

FAQ:
Q: Do you work with customers from the Youngstown area even though your shop is in Akron?
A: Yes. Many Youngstown-area operators use our shop for heavy-duty radiator and emissions-related service because we specialize in these components.
Q: Is a radiator recore better than replacing the whole radiator?
A: In many cases, yes—especially when the tanks are reusable and the core is the main issue. Recoring can restore performance and extend service life.
Q: Can you help with DPF and DOC issues?
A: Yes. We support DPF/DOC cleaning and related aftertreatment service needs and can help you take the next step when warning lights or regen problems appear.
