Agri Health Infrared Heat Lamp Bulb for Livestock
Description
Agri Health Infrared Heat Lamp Bulb - Radiant Warmth for Livestock and Young Stock
The Agri Health Heat Lamp Bulb is a replacement infrared bulb that fits compatible heat lamp holders and reflector units. It is designed for farmers, smallholders and yard owners who need to keep piglets, lambs, chicks, poultry or young foals warm in stables, barns and brooder pens.
Infrared bulbs work by directing radiant heat downwards onto the animal and its bedding, instead of trying to heat the whole building. That makes this bulb best for draughty, open-fronted or high-roofed agricultural buildings where warm air disappears as fast as you create it.

How to Use
- Check that the bulb wattage and cap size match your existing lamp holder before fitting.
- Switch off and isolate the power supply, and let any old bulb cool completely before removing it.
- Fit the bulb squarely into the holder without over-tightening.
- Suspend the lamp from a chain or safety cable - never hang it by the flex.
- Set the height so animals can move towards or away from the heat, and keep the bulb clear of bedding, straw, dust and cobwebs.
- Check the bulb, holder and cable regularly and replace any damaged component.
FAQ
What animals is this heat lamp bulb suitable for?
It is used for piglets, lambs, chicks, poultry, goat kids and young or convalescing foals - any stock that benefits from a warm, dry spot in cold conditions.
Will it fit my existing heat lamp?
It is a replacement bulb for compatible heat lamp holders and reflector units. Heat lamp fittings vary between manufacturers, so always check the wattage rating and cap size of your holder before fitting.
How high should the lamp be hung?
Set the height so the animals have a warm area to lie under and cooler space to move into. If stock huddle directly beneath the lamp they are too cold; if they scatter to the edges of the pen it is too warm, so adjust the height accordingly.
Is an infrared bulb better than a fan heater in a barn?
For open or draughty buildings, infrared is usually the more practical choice because it heats the animal and bedding rather than the air volume, which is quickly lost through ventilation.
How do I use a heat lamp bulb safely?
Hang the lamp from a chain or safety cable rather than the cable, keep it well away from straw, bedding and cobwebs, allow it to cool before handling, and replace the bulb immediately if the glass is cracked or chipped.
