•In the Fre-Heater the refrigerant is
routed to a specially designed con
denser/heat exchanger and its heat
is transferred to the water
0 A thermostatically controlled valve
delivers 140* F water to the Storage
tank A mixing valve also delivers
* prepping* temperature water
• Tests indicate the Fre-Heater con
sumes 10% less power than an air
cooled system and you get free
hot water!
• Eliminates the most common causes
of slow cooling cold weather start
ing problems and compressor fail
uras because
1 There is no air-cooled condenser
to become clogged or fans to fait
or generate noise
2 The Fre-Heater is installed in
doors
3 The head pressure Is very stable
assuring longer compressor life
• A Fre-Heater operating on 60* F
well water will produce a volume of
140* F water similar to the amount
of milk produced during a milking
