A bin yard tends to grow one bin at a time. The first few each get a fan off a nearby pole, a couple more arrive a few years later, then a dryer, and suddenly the yard is carrying more load than the original service was ever planned for. Plenty of bin yards end up with wiring that works bin by bin, but nobody has looked at the whole picture.
Baer Electric handles aeration fan and heater circuits, starters and controls, grain monitoring cables, dryer and auger power, and the feeds out to the bin yard, overhead or underground. We lay the yard out so augers and trucks can move without working near overhead lines, and so adding the next bin doesn't mean starting over. Monitoring systems are wired to the manufacturer's instructions.
Harvest is the wrong time to find out a fan won't start. Late summer is a good time to have fans, heaters and connections checked before the bins fill, and our 24/7 emergency line is there for the breakdowns that happen anyway. With a frost-free season of roughly 96 days in this region, new bin-yard trenching is easiest to get done before freeze-up.

Why Baer Electric
Local, licensed, and accountable.
-
Fans, heaters and controls
Circuits sized for the motors and heaters you actually run, with controls you can reach and understand.
-
Clear of overhead lines
We lay out bin-yard feeds so augers and grain trucks don't have to work near overhead power lines.
-
Room for the next bin
The feed and the panel are planned so another bin or a dryer can be added without redoing the yard.
-
24/7 at harvest
If a fan or dryer goes down mid-harvest, call 306-238-7655 any time.
-
Underground feeds
Trenching and wiring by the same crew, so a buried feed to the bin yard is one job.
