Unique 60° Emitter Angle Puts More Radiant Heat Into Primary Brood Areay

No other radiant gas brooder can provide more radiant heat to the floor of your poultry house than Space-Ray. Our specially designed 60° emitter angle, combined with our deep dish canopy, produces an optimum heat pattern in the primary brood area. This large radiant heat pattern means that fewer brooders are required in each house resulting in fuel savings.

Space-Ray’s Unique 60° Emitter Angle is specifically designed to aim the radiant heat directly at the birds where it’s needed most
