Includes TISS (Tube Integrity Safety System), designed to automatically shut-off the heater in the unlikely event of a tube failure.
Each unit is pre-assembled for easy installation.
Unit includes a fresh air intake kit, exhaust hood, stainless steel flexible gas connector and a pre-wired electrical connection.
Unique U-bend reflector improves heat throw from the end of the Big Foot unit.
Wide heating coverage provides birds with comfortable access to feed and water across the brood area.
4” diameter, 16 gauge calorized aluminized steel tubes are corrosion resistant, create a large radiant surface and provide a better radiant throw to emit heat over a wide area.
The aluminum reflector covers are mounted at a 19 degree angle to distribute heat toward the floor in a rectangular shape for even coverage. This rectangular pattern conforms to the shape of a poultry house, providing complete comfort across the floor.īig Foot® heaters feature two parallel emitter tubes with a U-shaped connector. Big Foot heaters feature two emitter tubes with a U-shaped connector and highly efficient aluminum reflectors mounted at a 19° optimized angle that produces an extra-wide, uniform rectangular shaped heat distribution pattern on the floor. The Big Foot® heater is an energy efficient, push-through radiant tube system that is mounted from the ceiling in poultry houses.
Big Foot®, Fusion™ and GroTUBE radiant tube heaters are CSA certified.
All radiant tube heaters feature Direct Spark Ignition (DSI) and are available in single-stage and two-stage options in both Propane (LP) and Natural Gas (NG) models.
Hung from the barn’s ceiling radiant tube heaters do not have to be adjusted up and down during grow-out, reducing labor and chances for the heaters to be damaged.
Radiant tube heaters pull fresh air for combustion from outside the poultry barn, reducing maintenance and performance issues that can be caused by dust and other air contaminants.
Radiant heaters emit heat toward the litter flooring, efficiently warming while saving fuel and reducing maintenance.
Radiant tube heating systems work similar to traditional brooder heaters, but provide larger areas of heating coverage at varying intensities, allowing poultry to adjust their position to remain most comfortable at all times.
