Heating systems An ideal temperature in every poultry house

Ideal house temperatures have a substantial influence on the health and performance of poultry. 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 birds in an optimum way while keeping energy costs as low as possible. Big Dutchman offers several different heaters that are fuelled by gas or oil, or use hot water. Let our experts advise you to find the best heating system for your poultry house. Heaters with 100 % heat output for operation with natural gas or propane gas JetMaster is a tried and tested...

JetMaster type P 80 for operation with fuel oil, mobile JetMaster type Connection values: 230 V, 50 Hz for all types Flame monitoring by means of a photocell JetMaster with flue gas exhaustHeaters with indirect combustion and low energy consumption JetMaster heaters with flue gas exhaust are available for operation with fuel oil, natural gas or propane gas. Due to the closed combustion chamber, the house air remains free of excess carbon dioxide and other harmful gases, as these leave the building through a chimney. The built-in fan provides a wide throwing range, so distributing the warm air...

JetMaster type Connection values: 230 V, 50 Hz for all types Gas connection: % inches Hot-water heaters continue to be very popular because they significantly improve the quality of the air in the house (lower CO2 concentration). The objective is to maximise heat output. This is achieved by a radiator with a large surface area. Renewable energy sources such as wood chips or straw pellets are an ideal solution for heating the water. Boilers fired by gas or fuel oil are also an option, of course. Especially efficient is the use of waste heat produced by a combined heat and power plant or biogas...

Technical data of HeatMaster Pipe diameter inches 1/ IK2 IK2 Weight without water * Flow temperature 90 °C / return temperature 70 °C; ambient temperature 35 °C 3-way mixing groupPowerful and reliable In combination with the ViperTouch climate and production computer, the powerful 3-way mixing group from Big Dutchman controls houses with hot water heating in such a way that the temperature always remains at the desired level, with stepless adjustment from 0 % to 100 %. This means that the birds do not experience any temperature fluctuations. To supply houses of different sizes, the 3-way mixing...

Gas brooders are especially well-suited if it is necessary to supply birds with intensive heat in a specific area and for a defined period of time. Examples include turkeys, ducks, broilers, and pullets during the rearing phase. The fact that these gas brooders do not require an electrical power supply is a great advantage.
