HAVE YOU EVER STAYED
AWAKE AT NIGHT...?
If you have a heat drying com unit - sure you have. You’ve probably
spent many nights baby-sitting the dryer.
Why loose sleep? The folks at AeroDry Grain Management
Systems have developed a system to dry your com using computer
controlled fan forced air. All you have to do is set the controls and
enjoy a nights sleep
Sleep is not the only benefit you’ll get. You can benefit from energy
savings of up to 75%. You won’t “cook” the quality out of your
com with high temperatures. You’ll enjoy less shrink and higher
test weights.
If you have a heat drying unit, you already know of benefits of
drying and storing your own crop - now you can enjoy more bene
fits with AeroDry. AeroDry can be installed completely or to revise
an existing bin system.
