Q & A
Customer Questions
What are the heating times from room temperature to 150° F? 50 gallons? Is there a chart for heating times available?
Thank you for your inquiry. According to our vendor, the heating times would depend on several factors including the drum contents being heated, whether the container is single- or double-walled, and whether the contents are being heated indoors or outdoors (also assuming an average room temperature of 72° F).
