Application:
One of the top poultry producers in the country was looking for a method for heating water to their scalders (hot water baths prior to the “picker lines”). They turned to Pick, as other methods had not given them the precise temperature control they wanted.
Additionally, they wanted a heater which would help decrease the high maintenance costs of direct gas fired heaters.
