Mirage

Mirage
LPG operated infra-red spot heater - 5.5 kW

Radiant heating is the only system that creates a micro-climate to your chickens, so that they can choose their most comfortable place and warmth at any time. At birds level.

The only problem of infra-red heaters is the daily cleaning of the dustfilters. This problem is solved by the new Mirage which does not have a dustfilter. The heater is constructed in such a way that dust is burned in the flame itself, while inside cleaning of the heater is only required approx. every three weeks.

The round emitter and the specially designed shape of the reflector creates 2-3° C more heat at birds level with a maximum brooding zone and maintains the highest fuel efficiency.

An all stainless steel construction makes the Mirage virtually maintenance-free, it is easy to install and simple to maintain. All Mirage heaters can be hooked up to a high low Regulating Unit, which maintains a very consistent temperature at ground level.

Each unit incorporates a flame failure gas shut-off safety device as standard.
