    In sub-zero type weather do you call it a heater instead of a reefer? Curious minds want to know! Does it have a heater to keep it from getting too cold?

    NO when hauling a frozen load in sub zero temps--u open both front flaps and rear vent-- shut the unit off--then look up at the heavens and say THANK YOU!!

    Technically, they are heat pumps. They will both cool and heat. Live plants, produce, and some other products have to be kept from freezing or some other specified temp. If it's colder than the set point, heat is pumped in instead of out.

    In fact, I'll run mine to -10º and when you touch your tongue to the floor I'll dial it up to +70º for a demonstration. I promise.

    You would have to pay me some money for me to stick my tongue on the floor for a dry load, even after being cleaned. If the money was right, I really would do it though.

    You can stick your tongue to my trailer floor after I get done hauling a nice load of chicken...got stuck on a hill the other day for 45 mins because of an accident and wound up with big chicken blood poopcicles hanging off the back of the trailer.

    Chickens in combos do tend to be messy, especially if it's iced down for quicker cooling. Chicken blood is nasty smelling stuff as well. Is that what you were hauling? Wrapped and boxed should never weep like that.
