The three Dryers i have loaded at all had dock doors where you backed in and they opened your trailer doors from inside the dock. You left your unit running and it would pull the -20 air in from the warehouse. Your precool temp only had to be at zero or lower.
TK S-700 new reefer unit on 35 hours can’t get to -15 ?

Either that or I leave the doors shut until the receiver comes out and tells me open them -
Also there is another Cold storage in Golden Valley, AZ close to Kingman. This facility is brand new with large size docks, you back with closed doors, they open and closed doors from inside. I have been there to load frozen bread at -10 F. They started loading me at +6 F without any problems.
Even if the reefer gets down to -15 F when you pull forward to open the doors…. at 120F …. the temperature will jump up to +20 F …Last edited: Jul 11, 2024

Assuming the trailer is not new, since mentioning "new unit" makes sense to do so. If the trailer is yours, look into Sunshield coating, it helps big time to keep the roof cooler, so it will not warm exhaust air in the shoot as much.
Verdel Thanks this. -
