Safe heat lamp installation tips for farm pigs and chicks
Iowa State extension safety specialist Norval Wardle outlines precautions for infrared heat lamps used in poultry and swine housing. Recommendations include moisture proof metal reflectors, chain or bracket suspensions, cords protected by heavy duty appliance wiring, minimum clearances above bedding, 12 to 30 inch height ranges, 15 inch minimum to chicks, 12 inch hover clearance, 1/2 inch mesh covers, and dedicated circuits with appropriate wire sizes and fuses.
