L.B. White Smart Sense Barn Heating Technology
L.B. White offers Smart Sense, a pig barn heating technology that automatically modulates the environment to maintain a precise, even heat compared to manual on-off control systems. Smart Sense functions through the pig building control system. It operates at maximum efficiency to provide fuel cost savings up to 35%, consistent room temperature, enhanced animal welfare, better pig produc-tion and improved air quality. Smart Sense generates only the amount of heat required to reach, maintain and hold a desired room temperature in barns by modulating Btu output. This is achieved through proprietary technology engineered for L.B. White forced-air heaters and radiant-heater brooders. For more information, call (800) 345-7200 or visit www.lbwhite.com.
