Drive Clean Program

Proven Emission Reduction in Ontario Canada's Drive Clean Program

Drive Clean is Ontario's mandatory vehicle emissions inspection and maintenance program that is reducing smog-causing pollution by requiring vehicles to undergo an emissions test to identify emissions problems and have them repaired.

In addition to smog-causing pollutants, Drive Clean is also reducing vehicle emissions of other chemicals that can damage our health and our environment. Through Drive Clean, we have the opportunity to make a positive contribution to the quality of our air through good vehicle maintenance, and by identifying emissions problems early so they can be repaired.

How Cerma STM-3 Helps You Pass Emissions Tests

Cerma STM-3 engine treatment has been proven to reduce vehicle emissions, helping vehicles pass emissions testing programs like Ontario's Drive Clean.

Benefits for Emissions Testing

  • Reduces harmful emissions – Lower THC, CO, NOx, and CO2 output
  • Improves combustion efficiency – Cleaner fuel burn
  • Cleans engine internals – Removes carbon deposits that cause emissions problems
  • Restores engine performance – Brings older engines back to proper operation

Tips for Passing Emissions Tests

Before Your Test

  • Add Cerma STM-3 – Apply treatment at least 500-1500 miles before testing
  • Drive the vehicle – Ensure the engine is fully warmed up
  • Check engine light – Address any warning lights before testing
  • Change oil if needed – Fresh oil helps reduce emissions
  • Check air filter – A clean filter improves combustion

OBD II Testing

Modern emissions testing uses OBD II (On-Board Diagnostics) to check your vehicle's emissions control systems. Cerma STM-3 helps ensure these systems operate properly by:

  • Keeping catalytic converters functioning efficiently
  • Reducing sensor fouling from carbon buildup
  • Maintaining proper oxygen sensor readings
  • Ensuring complete combustion

Why Vehicles Fail Emissions Tests

Common Cause How Cerma Helps
Carbon buildup Self-cleaning technology removes deposits
Poor combustion Improved lubrication restores efficiency
Worn engine components Ceramic coating restores compression
High emissions output Proven 13%+ reduction in exhaust opacity

Cerma's Proven Emissions Reduction

Independent testing has verified Cerma STM-3's ability to reduce emissions:

  • 13.88% average reduction in diesel exhaust opacity
  • EPA and CARB certified testing confirms results
  • Canadian ETV verified for fuel efficiency improvements

Don't Fail Your Emissions Test

If your vehicle is due for emissions testing, treat it with Cerma STM-3 today. Give the treatment time to work (at least 500 miles for cars, 1500 miles for trucks) before your scheduled test.
