Tube heaters and stir fans are proving to be popular to save fuel and increase performance.  We carry a full line of stir fans including:

  • American made axial fans (most popular)
  • Imported axial fans (lowest cost)
  • Paddle fans (Casa-Blanca) ceiling fans

Tube heaters have been enormously popular lately.  We feel that tube heat will be the industry standard in only a few years.  Advantages of the tube heaters include:

  • Convenience.  Tube heaters hang very close to the ceilings  in the peak of the poultry house and are not 'in the way' like brooders and space heaters.
  • Long life.  Our heaters are sealed and burn air that is ducted in from the attic.  This keeps the heater clean inside and reduces the amount of preventive maintenance required (read less cleaning!).
  • Simple.  No pilot orifice or thermo-couple to maintain.
  • Efficient.  Radiant heat has been proven to be the most economical way to heat a poultry house.  Tube heaters provide more heat in the center and less at the walls, and are very uniform throughout the length of the poultry house.

Tube heaters are available in many different lengths and BTU sizes to match your needs.  See also: Common Tube Heater Layouts for Broiler Houses
