In animal homes and kennels underfloor heating provides the right level of comfort at floor level without heating the entire building, saving energy costs. When pets are hospitalised or they are in boarding kennels a heated floor is controllable to keep the animals warm in a stable environment. Pens can be individually zoned. RFC10 loose cable or RFM heating mat systems are ideal for animal pen heating. Farming requirements are very important and the best conditions possible are required to help animals develop properly and obtain the heat needed. Piglets mature quicker by preventing body heat loss to the atmosphere or floor. Temperature regulation is controllable over the period the piglets are maturing. Disease in chicken sheds is greatly reduced with a heated floor. Survival rates improve and the newly born chickens feel much better in the environment created. Also, a heated floor quickly dries the chicken waste, making floor cleaning easier and faster. RFM and RFC systems are both ideal for farming applications. Geltherm pipe frost protection is the perfect solution to protect exposed pipes from freezing in stables etc.
