Heating system

Suggestion: The radiant brooder should be used in combination with a heater. Thermal radiation brooder used for breeding
The main heat source during the young period, while the heater provides additional heating in cold weather. along with
When the flock matures, the chicken will only develop the ability to regulate the body temperature. At about 14 days old, straight
Blow heaters can be used as the main heat source. Generally speaking, radiant heaters should be used as
The main heat source in poorly insulated chicken coops, and direct-blowing heaters can be used
Heart wall chicken coop.

The available heating systems are listed below

Direct blowing fan heater: This fan heater needs to be placed in a place where the air flow is slow enough.
So as to achieve the greatest degree of air heating. The heater is usually placed in the middle of the chicken coop, away from
The ground height is 1.4-1.5 meters, because this height will not produce wind that affects the chicks. straight
Blow-type heaters should never be placed close to the air inlet, because such heaters do not
Can heat the air that flows too fast. Placing the heater at the air inlet will cause an increase in heat energy consumption
High and cost increase.
• Thermal radiation type/fixed-point heating brooder: traditional nanny umbrella or thermal radiation type brooder can be used
It is used to heat the litter of the chicken house. With these systems, chicks can find them
An area where the temperature is comfortable. Water and feed should be placed around the brooder.
• Underground heating and heating: This system passes heat through pipes installed under the ground concrete
Water circulation realizes heating effect. Supply ground bedding and brooding area through ground heat exchange
warm.

Insufficient heating capacity will make the temperature in the chicken house uneven, and the chickens will migrate with temperature changes, affecting the chickens.
Group uniformity and production performance, as well as increase fuel consumption.
