Providing optimal heating in poultry halls is of vital importance. Any cold stress can lead to heavy poultry losses that are often impossible to compensate for. Providing suitable heating for the birds’ bedding and precise temperature control makes economic activities in the poultry industry justifiable. In this regard, the Dadman Tahvieh radiant heating system is known as one of the best methods to be used as a poultry farm radiant heater for chicken breeding halls.
The Poultry Farm Radiant Heater: An Ideal Solution for Poultry Farm Heating
In the past, convection methods, such as heaters and jet fans, were used for heating poultry halls. These methods had extensive drawbacks that led to a re-evaluation of heating systems. The following are some of the drawbacks that have now been resolved with the use of a poultry farm radiant heater:
- High Energy Consumption and Heat Loss: In traditional methods, the heated air was exhausted from the hall by ventilation fans before it could transfer heat to the environment and the birds’ bodies, which resulted in high heat and energy waste. Heat loss is much lower with a poultry farm radiant heater.
- Increased Environmental Pollution and Dust: The hot air currents spread dust throughout the hall. This inevitably increased the frequency of ventilation, which was itself a major factor in energy waste. A poultry farm radiant heater drastically reduces air pollution.
- Uneven Heating: In traditional hot air convection methods, the bedding surface was always cold, wet, and damp, and there was a high-temperature difference between the ceiling and the floor of the hall.
Dadman Tahvieh Poultry Farm Radiant Heater: An Innovative Solution for Poultry Heating
The Dadman Tahvieh poultry farm radiant heater, inspired by nature and the sun, provides an optimal solution for poultry hall heating. This radiant heating system is installed at a height (about 4 meters from the ground, suspended from the ceiling). This is its most important advantage, as it doesn’t take up any physical space and, unlike older methods that were placed on the floor, it does not harm the chicks.
Key Advantages of Using a Radiant Heating System in a Poultry Hall
Using a Dadman Tahvieh radiant heater in poultry farms has notable advantages that make it an ideal option:
- Uniform and Optimal Bedding Heat: The radiant heater creates uniform heat on the poultry bedding surface. It directs heat directly to the floor and the living beings (birds and chicks) through radiant heat transfer, without using air as a medium.
- Significant Energy Reduction: This device uses natural gas as fuel and can reduce gas consumption by up to 50%. Scientific research and articles have shown that using a poultry farm radiant heater leads to significant savings in energy (gas and electricity) and maintenance costs compared to other heating methods.
- Reduced Dust and Pollution: By not creating hot air currents, the radiant heater leads to a reduction of dust and pollution in the hall.
- Improved Health and Growth of Poultry: The uniform heating of the bedding surface and the lack of a wet floor are important benefits of using a radiant heater. Also, scientific results have shown that using radiant heaters leads to a lower feed conversion ratio and increased growth rate in broiler chicks.
- No Loss of Physical Space: The installation of a poultry farm radiant heater at a height means it doesn’t occupy any physical space in the hall.
- Easy and Precise Temperature Control: The Dadman Tahvieh radiant heater is connected to an environmental thermostat that is very simple to use. All you have to do is set the required temperature, and the devices will automatically turn on and off to maintain the desired temperature.
- Option for Zonal or Regional Heating: This system allows for providing heat regionally in initial sections of the hall (during the first days of brooding) or in specific parts of a large hall.
- Silent and Lightless Operation: The poultry farm radiant heater operates silently and without producing light.
- Reduced Temperature Difference: This system significantly reduces the temperature difference between the points near the floor and the ceiling of the hall.
How a Radiant Heater Works in a Poultry Farm
The radiant heater consists of components such as a gas burner, exhaust fan, reflector panels, a fire tube, a turbulator, a thermostat, and more. Here is how it works:
- Natural gas enters the burner at a pressure of about 20 millibars.
- After mixing with oxygen, combustion begins with a spark igniter.
- The resulting flame enters high-radiation tubes, increasing their surface temperature to about 450 degrees Celsius.
- The radiant waves from the poultry farm radiant heater are then spread throughout the hall in a heat umbrella pattern with a maximum radiation radius after hitting the shiny steel reflector panels.
The most important point is that the radiant waves are not absorbed by the air and only transfer their energy as heat to the objects they strike.
Quality Assurance and Standards
The products manufactured by Dadman Tahvieh have a national standard mark and are produced and supplied in compliance with the highest European standards. The company’s well-equipped laboratory has also been designated as a partner of the Standards Office for testing and inspecting radiant tube devices in the country. The Dadman Tahvieh poultry farm radiant heater comes with a 10-year warranty on the fan and burner and a 10-year warranty and replacement for the tubes.
Proven Track Record and Other Applications
The installation of thousands of radiant heaters in poultry halls over the years proves the benefits of this system. The use of radiant heat transfer technology has also grown increasingly popular in many countries, such as Russia and Canada. In addition to poultry farm heating, this product is also used for sports hall heating and in many other locations.

Frequently Asked Questions About Poultry Farm Radiant Heaters
- What is a radiant heater and how does it work in a poultry hall?
A radiant heater is a radiant heating system designed with inspiration from nature and the sun. This device transfers heat as radiant waves directly to the floor, birds, and chicks without using air as a medium. Its main components include a gas burner, exhaust fan, reflector panels, a fire tube, a turbulator, and a thermostat. Natural gas enters the burner, and after combustion, the flame heats the surface of high-radiation tubes to around 450 degrees Celsius. The radiant waves from the poultry farm radiant heater are then spread throughout the hall in a “heat umbrella” pattern after hitting the reflectors. These waves are not absorbed by the air; they transfer their thermal energy to the objects they strike. A poultry farm radiant heater is an ideal method for providing poultry heating.
- What’s the difference between heating with a radiant heater and traditional methods (like heaters and jet fans) in poultry farms?
Traditional heating methods in poultry farms (like heaters and jet fans) use air convection to transfer heat, which has significant drawbacks. These methods lead to high energy consumption, increased pollution and dust, and uneven heating of the bedding surface. Additionally, due to the spread of dust, the need for frequent ventilation increases, which causes significant heat loss. In contrast, a poultry farm radiant heater transfers heat directly to the hall’s floor, reduces dust and pollution, and creates uniform and optimal warmth on the bedding surface.
- What are the most important advantages of using a radiant heater in poultry halls?
Using a poultry farm radiant heater has numerous advantages, including:
- Reduced dust and pollution due to the lack of hot air currents.
