Estimating the term…
A system to heat objects which are infested with arthropods is disclosed having a structured shelter, composed of two double reflective canopies and a double reflective floor cover. Heaters are placed within the shelter, and a fan is located behind the heater to furnish hot air circulation. Thermocouples are provided to determine the heating end point. The non metallic support structure is installed around the objects to be heated, and the various reflective covers and canopies are installed upon the support structure.
A system for the destruction of insects located upon individual items through the use of the application of heat, including a support structure, the support structure being formed of a series of lateral and longitudinal rails, interconnected together to provide for support of the system during its usage, an inner canopy applied to the support structure within its interior, and hooked onto its various rails during application, the inner canopy being formed of a double reflective insulating material that is applied both interiorly of the support structure along its upper system, and along its sides, a double reflective insulating material applied on the bottom of the support structure, to function as a floor therefore, an outer canopy provided around the support structure, including a top panel, for application to the top structure of the roof for the system, and side panels that extend around the outer sides of the structure, to function as a protective cover that is adhered to the top side and the outside of the side panels, at least one heater provided within the structure during its application, in proximity to the item being treated, to provide for the generation of heat to function as the means for termination of any insects during its application.
