by 1111 j3 — November 17, 2008—The Dragon K85 mobile furnace from Dri-Eaz efficiently delivers clean, temporary heat for improving occupant comfort or boosting effectiveness of post-flood drying. The Dragon adds heat to make office spaces, warehouse areas, classrooms, gymnasiums and tented structures comfortable during colder months. In clean-up situations after flooding or leaks, the Dragon can be used to raise temperatures and create “thirsty” air air with greater moisture carrying capacity that will dramatically speed up the drying process.

Providing 85,000 BTUs of heat and producing up to an 81 temperature rise, the Dragon uses an indirect fired heat exchanger to provide safe, clean heat. Unlike a propane or kerosene heater, the Dragon’s combustion chamber is separate from the process air chamber. This means that the Dragon heats the air without adding moisture, fumes or smoke.

The Dragon has a long list of features, including a dual air exhaust for supplying heat to two areas at once; energy-saving operation with a 91 percent efficiency rating; a powerful rated heat output of 85,000 BTUs/hour; and a remote thermostat for maintaining optimum temperature. It features a 9.3 gallon internal fuel tank and a fuel pump that allows for operation with an external fuel tank. Handles and wheels provide maximum maneuverability. The Dragon can also double as a 1200 CFM ventilator just switch off the heating element and use only the fan.
