Years of Service

In Canton and throughout Stark County, heavy-duty equipment doesn’t get to “take a day off.” When a semi truck starts overheating, a generator runs too hot, or a dozer/excavator can’t maintain safe operating temps, the downtime adds up quickly. Ellet Radiator (located in Akron) supports Canton-area fleets and operators with specialized service for the systems that keep hard-working machines running: radiators, charge air coolers (air-to-air), oil coolers, hydraulic coolers, and diesel aftertreatment components.

If you’re looking for a shop that understands heavy-duty cooling and emissions hardware—without trial-and-error—call Ellet Radiator at (330) 784-8226 and tell us what you’re running and what’s happening.

HEAVY-DUTY RADIATOR REPAIR, CLEANING & RECORE (CANTON AREA SUPPORT):

Overheating often starts long before a radiator “fails.” External debris, internal buildup, weakened cores, and small leaks can reduce heat transfer until operating temps creep up and the engine can’t recover under load.

Ellet Radiator provides Canton-area customers with:

  • Radiator cleaning to remove restriction and improve cooling efficiency
  • Radiator repair for leaks, damaged necks/fittings, cracks, and wear-related issues
  • Radiator recore service when the core is too restricted or worn to restore properly (often a cost-effective way to bring performance back)

If your equipment is getting hot on I-77, US-30, or while working long shifts on site around Canton and nearby communities, a proper radiator inspection can quickly point to the right fix.

CHARGE AIR COOLERS / AIR-TO-AIR COOLERS (CAC):

Charge air coolers (often called intercoolers or air-to-air coolers) are critical on modern diesel equipment. When a CAC is restricted, contaminated, or damaged, you may notice sluggish performance, higher temps, inconsistent power, or efficiency issues.

We service and support charge air coolers for semi trucks, generators, and heavy equipment. If you suspect intake cooling or boost-related issues, we can help you confirm the problem and recommend the next step.

OIL COOLERS & HYDRAULIC COOLERS (SEMI + HEAVY EQUIPMENT):

Oil and hydraulic systems generate serious heat under real working conditions. When a cooler is plugged, restricted, or failing, temperatures rise and component wear accelerates.

Our heavy-duty cooler support includes:

  • Oil cooler cleaning and repair
  • Hydraulic cooler cleaning and repair
  • Service support for heat-exchange components used in tough environments

If you’re seeing higher-than-normal oil temps, hydraulic overheating under load, or frequent heat-related shutdowns, cooler service can be a smart way to prevent bigger failures.

HYDRAULIC & FUEL TANK CLEANING, REPAIR & FABRICATION:

Dirty or compromised tanks can create repeating problems across your entire system—clogged filters, pump stress, injector issues, contaminated hydraulic circuits, and unnecessary downtime.

Ellet Radiator can help with:

  • Hydraulic tank cleaning and repair
  • Fuel tank cleaning and repair
  • Fabrication/modification support for heavy equipment and semi truck applications

If you’ve got contamination concerns, corrosion, leaks, or damage, we can help restore tank integrity and protect the components downstream.

DPF, DOC & SCR CLEANING (DIESEL AFTERTREATMENT SUPPORT):

Diesel emissions systems are expensive to replace, and restrictions can lead to warning lights, repeated regens, derates, and lost productivity.

We support cleaning and service needs for:

  • DPF (Diesel Particulate Filters)
  • DOC (Diesel Oxidation Catalysts)
  • SCR system components (Selective Catalytic Reduction)

If your truck or equipment in the Canton area is struggling with regen behavior or persistent aftertreatment faults, proper cleaning and inspection can often address restriction and buildup over time.

NEW PARTS IN STOCK (RADIATORS, CHARGE AIR COOLERS, DPF FILTERS):

When repair isn’t the best route—or you need to reduce downtime—we can help with new components for many common applications, including:

  • New radiators
  • New charge air coolers / air-to-air coolers
  • New DPF filters and related emissions components

If you have an OEM part number or equipment details, call and we’ll help confirm fitment and availability.
