This equipment is made for use with Grand Rapids Vapor
Kilns, but it can be used with equal efficiency with any
o ther types of kilns. This equipment is the result of the
desire to meet the requirements of those who seek to solve
their wood drying problems, overhead handling, etc., in the
most economical manner-
Grand Rapids Vapor Kilns and kiln equipment are in use
from Coast to Coast and abroad, and the fact that 41 per
cent of the 1922 business came from repeat orders (addi
tional installations) indicates the perfect performance of
thlS lumber drying method.
