SEE ALL OF OUR POULTRY HEATERS
Ensure your poultry stays warm and healthy with our infrared heat bulbs. These energy-efficient bulbs provide reliable, direct heat, helping to prevent cold stress and promote healthy growth. Ideal for brooders and coops, they maintain natural sleep cycles without disrupting your birds. Durable and safe, these bulbs offer consistent warmth for poultry during colder months.
Each bulb is 250 Watts, 110 Volts, and can be used in Hanging Poultry Heat Lamps
How Infrared Heat Bulbs Work and Their Benefits for Poultry
An infrared heat bulb emits infrared radiation, which directly warms objects and animals rather than heating the surrounding air. This targeted heating method mimics natural warmth, similar to the sun, providing consistent and energy-efficient heat for poultry.
Benefits of Using an Infrared Heat Bulb in a Hanging Heat Lamp
1. Efficient Direct Heating
Unlike traditional heaters, infrared bulbs transfer heat directly to chicks and poultry, ensuring they stay warm without unnecessary energy loss.
2. Reduces Stress & Promotes Growth
Consistent warmth helps chicks develop properly, minimizing cold stress that can lead to slowed growth or health issues.
3. Encourages Natural Rest Cycles
Infrared heat is gentle and does not emit bright light, allowing birds to maintain healthy sleep patterns without unnecessary disruption.
4. Prevents Overheating & Fire Hazards
Designed for controlled warmth, these bulbs provide safe, even heating when used in a securely hung heat lamp at the proper height.
5. Durable & Long-Lasting
Infrared bulbs are built for long-term use, making them a cost-effective heating solution for poultry brooders and coops.
Create a Safe and Warm Environment for Your Poultry
Using an infrared heat bulb in a hanging heat lamp ensures a safe, warm, and comfortable environment for your flock.
Why Infrared Bulbs Are Safer Than Traditional Bulbs for Poultry
An infrared heat bulb offers several safety benefits over traditional incandescent or halogen bulbs, making it a preferred choice for heating poultry and livestock environments. These bulbs are specifically designed to provide safe and efficient heating, reducing the risk of accidents and promoting a healthier environment for your birds.
Key Safety Advantages of Infrared Heat Bulbs
1. Lower Surface Temperature
Unlike traditional bulbs, which can become extremely hot to the touch, infrared bulbs distribute heat evenly without becoming dangerously hot, reducing the risk of burns or accidental fires.
2. Shatter-Resistant Design
Infrared bulbs are often made with reinforced glass or durable coatings to prevent shattering when exposed to moisture or minor impacts, enhancing safety in active poultry environments.
3. Focused Heat Without Overheating Surroundings
Infrared bulbs directly heat poultry and objects rather than excessively warming the surrounding air or bedding. This controlled heating helps prevent overheating of the coop or other structures, lowering fire risk.
4. No Disruptive Visible Light
Traditional bulbs emit bright light that can interfere with your poultry’s sleep cycles. Infrared bulbs produce only heat, allowing your birds to rest naturally and without disruption.
5. Energy-Efficient and Consistent Heating
Infrared bulbs are designed for energy-efficient heating, providing consistent warmth with lower energy consumption. This reduces temperature fluctuations that can stress poultry, while also offering cost-effective operation.
Create a Safe, Warm Environment for Your Poultry
By using an infrared heat bulb in a hanging heat lamp, you can ensure a safer, more controlled heating source for your poultry, reducing the risk of fire and promoting a healthier environment.
Caution: When using infrared heat bulbs in an enclosed area, always ensure proper ventilation to prevent overheating and maintain a safe, consistent airflow for your animals. Regularly monitor the heat source and keep it securely mounted to avoid fire hazards.
