Startup
The Simple Dew unit was calibrated before it was shipped from Super Systems Inc. You can
begin typical operation as soon as the unit has been allowed to stabilize in a temperature
similar to the temperature in the heat treating department. This stabilization is particularly
important for units that may have been sitting overnight in a delivery vehicle in freezing
