Because of QED Grain Dryers’ Efficiency in fuel, QED exceeds the competition when it comes to the profits gained by the end of the drying season. In the following charts, you can see how the QED grain dryer is number one when it is lined up against our competition in fuel consumption. For the first four charts, we compared the equivalent model size of our competition at the Corn capacity (BPH) of 20% to 15% moisture removal. Using literature gained from our competitor’s in February and November 2008, we took the average heat consumed (BTU/Hr.) of the QED Millennium Magnum series Grain Dryer and acquired the difference of the average heat consumed (BTU/Hr.) of the competition. Then, we calculated the fuel savings using the LP and natural gas costs in July 2008 at a projected 600 hrs. of drying per season.  Because of constant fluctuation of fuel price rates and the possibility of our competitors changing their literature, we cannot guarantee that our numbers are always accurate. However, if you have any questions or comments, please contact us for assistance.
