Robert May, New Freedom, producing 23,269 pounds milk and 995 pounds of butterfat
in 305 days.
High herd was David Steward, Delta, with 55.8 pounds milk and 2.09 pounds but
terfat on 53 cows. David Steward’s September test was second with 56.3 pounds milk

FRE-HEATER"
EXPLANATION OF THE REVOLUTIONARY
NEW MUELLER “FRE-HEATER™”
FOR THE DAIRY FARM
Bulk milk coqlers on modern dairy farms remove heat from
the milk promptly after it is produced To accomplish this
requires refrigeration machines and they are generally of
the air-cooled type. Air-cooled condensing units literally
“throw away” this valuable heat
On these same farms, large amounts of hot water are need
ed for “preppmg" the cows, washing the milk cooler, the
pipeline milker, other equipment, and the milking parlor
itself it is also advantageous to heat the cows’ drinking
water in winter
The Mueller Fre-Heater conserves energy and provides
“free" hot water by capturing the heat now wasted!
HERE’S HOW IT WORKS
Rather than using noisy, dust-creating fans with fragile,
dirt collecting air-cooled condensers, the refrigerant is
routed to a specially designed condenser/heat exchanger
and its heat is transferred to the water
A thermostatically controlled valve delivers 145 c F water
to the storage tank
In addition to the thermostatic valve, a mixing valve is pro
vided to permit "prepping" temperature water
Thus, the Fre-Heater delivers two temperatures of water
preppmg and washing
Tests indicate the Fre-Heater consumes 10% less power
than an air-cooled system . . . and you get Free Hot Water'
ELIMINATES REFRIGERATION SERVICE PROBLEMS'
The most common causes of slow cooling in bulk milk
cooling systems are related to the air-cooled condenser
Three things which frequently reduce the efficiency are
1 Poor air circulation and recirculation
2 Fan motor failures
3 Dirty or clogged condenser fins
Air-cooled condensing units are generally installed out of
doors in order to assure adequate air supply to the con
denser This exposes the compressor to extreme ambient
temperatures Starting problems and compressor failures
have resulted and air-cooled condenser units are always
noisy
The Fre-Heater eliminates these problems because
• There is no air-cooled condenser
• The Fre-Heater is installed indoors
• There are no fans to generate noise
• The head pressure is very stable assuring longer
compressor life.
• There are no cold weather starting problems, plus
. . . the Fre-Heater conserves energy and produces
Free Hot Water!
