Heating systems An ideal temperature in every pig house

Heating systems for a comfortable environment Ideal house temperatures have a substantial influence on the health and performance of pigs. Adequate heating systems are therefore a necessity in many climate zones. The goal is to maximise the heat output and to transfer this heat to the pigs in an optimum way while keeping energy costs as low as possible. Big Dutchman offers different systems for full-space heating or zone heating. The heaters can be fuelled by gas or oil, or use hot water. Let our experts advise you to find the ideal heating system for your pig house. Heaters with 100 % heat...

1. Delta pipe and Twin pipe Ideally suited for diffuse fresh air systems Delta pipes and Twin pipes are especially well-suited for perforated air channels and DiffAir ceilings. They are made from alu minium and are operated with hot water, of which they require only a small amount, however. Thanks to their good thermal conductivity (heat output of 180 to 200 watts/m), they ensure constant room temperatures inside the house. These heating systems can also be used for pre-heating in the central aisle. The pipes are anodised for improved protection against ammonia. They are of comparatively...

Output at 30 °C inside temperature Power consumption Throwing range Pipe thread connection Weight with water * at a flow temperature of 80 °C and a return temperature of 60 °C Zone heating Ideal for use in piglet rearing houses Piglets need much warmth, especially in the first days after their move to the nursery, so they adapt well during the critical post-weaning period. Ideally, the resting area should have a temperature of approximately 32 °C. In addition to traditional full-space heating, hot water zone heating is becoming increasingly popular for nurseries. The zones are created using...
