high temperature dh systems

Nyle’s HT-Series makes drying lumber simple, allowing even inexperienced operators to produce high-quality lumber. Operating at up to 160° F, these units match the drying speeds of conventional kilns. 

Each unit comes standard with; corrosion-resistant aluminum cabinets, coated dehumidification coils, stainless steel cold coils, and Nyle’s easy-to-use precision control systems. 

Each Kiln is made to order and can be fitted to your existing chamber or built with a new chamber to suit your operation.

Value

With Nyle’s dehumidification dryers, you can dry your lumber down to 6-8% moisture content for pennies per board foot. When you add in all the additional costs involved with running conventional steam, gas-fired, and solar dry kilns, take into account that our dryers use 40% to 60% less energy. Nyle dry kilns are dramatically more cost-effective to operate.
