Beekeepers have been using Oxalic Acid mixed with Glycerine all over the world for many years. They have found it extremely beneficial to the health of the colony. It can be used at any time of the year and the secret to its effectiveness is to maintain regular treatments.
Beequip run their own beehives for research and development and all the staff at Beequip have beekeeping experience. Oxalic acid solutions have been extensively researched and tested to maximise the results. The current economic challenges require most beekeepers to look at reducing costs wherever possible. The cardboard strips are extremely environmentally friendly when it comes time for disposal, as compared to the millions of plastic strips that are used in the industry, and end up in land fill.

This large 304 grade stainless steel heated tank makes it nice and easy to liquify up to 100kg of crystallized honey, or wax or anything that requires gentle heat!
The tank has an outer jacket which is filled with water or oil. The electric element heats the liquid in the outer jacket directly to provide a very safe and even heat to the contents inside the tank.
The tank holds up to 80 litres of liquid and can be heated close to 90 degrees. The tank has an outlet at the bottom. A ball valve comes as standard. You can also fit a honey gate, sold separately here.
The unit has an accurate and easy-to-use thermostatic controller. Adjustable from 30°C to 90°C where you set upper and lower limits. Simply set your upper and lower limit and the element will maintain the temperature between that setting. Once the jacket has heated to the desired temperature, the thermostat only supplies power to the heating element as it is needed to maintain the correct temperature.
Dimensions:- The tank is 510mm diameter plus any of the fittings on the side. Height to the top of the tank is 630mm.
