Benefits
* IMPORTANT safety note! Even though we find our lamps safer than common metal heat lamps, we still take every precaution to reduce fire risk. Please read all precautions before using. Any lamp that falls onto animals and/or bedding has consequences that can be very serious?including fire. |
Constructed using glass-reinforced plastic?resistant to high temperatures and ornery animals. Does not get as hot to the touch as metal lamps.
Use standard or infrared heat lamp bulbs no larger than 250W. Installed bulbs are recessed and contained within an easy to attach protective grill guard.
Always keep the bottom of the lamp at least 20" away from the highest point of the animal. (Can be lowered a few inches when used with chicks.)
Never lay a heat lamp (of any make or model) on straw or any other flammable surface?for any length of time. We recommend that you keep the lamp at least 20" away from the ground and/or livestock. To ensure safety, please routinely self-inspect the plug and connection (or ask a certified electrician to do so.) It’s also important to periodically check that the bulb is securely tightened in situations where the heat lamp may be inadvertently jostled by animals. Over time, these vibrations may cause the bulb to work itself loose. If a bulb becomes too loose, the electrical connection between the socket and bulb may fail causing an electrical discharge (arc). This is a fire risk and can permanently damage the lamp or bulb.
