Radiant Tube Heaters for Broilers

More Heat Where You Want It

Radiant tube heaters from Chore-Time and HeatStar® AG* deliver low-intensity, gentle heat directly toward floor-level objects. These objects, in turn, heat the surrounding air. The tube heaters can be installed high above the floor, where they reflect heat to a large area, reducing cold spots and inconsistent heating.

JET™ Series Radiant Tube Heaters

JET™ Radiant Tube Heaters provide superior heating efficiency, improved bird performance and operational advantages. The JET25™ Model covers 25-60% more floor area directly below the heaters than shorter competitive models.** Additionally, the JET25™ Heater burns at 100,000 BTUs, delivering 25% more output per heater than competitive units burning at 80,000 BTUs.

The result – fewer heaters are needed per house to heat the same area. And, when fewer heaters are needed, other costs also go down. Additionally, whether you choose the JET25™ or the JET20™ Heater, workers can perform in-house maintenance with the side door open, even while the burner is running.

  • Heat is transferred efficiently and evenly to the floor, requiring fewer heaters and fewer BTUs per square foot (square meter).
  • Aluminized tubing used in the first 10 feet (3.05 meters)  of each heater resists corrosion.
  • JET™ Heaters dry floor shavings and reduce hot and cold spots.
  • Burner is 100% factory-tested.
  • Gasket-lined burner box keeps out dust.
  • Easy-access hinged panel simplifies maintenance.
  • Power and diagnostic lights are positioned under the burner box for easy visibility.
  • Connects easily to control systems such as Chore-Time’s CHORE-TRONICS® 3 Controller.

Unique JET™ Flame
JET™ Heaters use a burner with a 10-foot (3.05-meter) jet-like flame combined with a unique 25-foot (7.62-meter) or 20-foot (6.10-meter) tube system to provide strong, even heat throughout the poultry house.

Rapid, Even Heat Transfer
JET™ Series Tube Sets feature a straight-line system with two diameters of tubes that use positive pressure to move and radiate heat evenly along the full length. Warm air is expelled from the end of the tube to fill in the gap between heaters.

Optimized Aluminum Reflector
The aluminum reflector on JET™ Heaters forms a stepped arc using eight different angles to reflect heat from the top of the tube and direct it down to the floor in a wide pattern. A single set of JET™ Heaters installed down the middle of a house can heat up to 50 feet (15.24 meters) in width.

Smaller Cold Spots
With traditional 40-foot (12.19-meter) and 50-foot (15.24-meter) tube heaters, floor temperatures decline rapidly along the tube length, producing arrowhead-shaped floor heat patterns. The result is hot spots near the burner and large cold spots flanking the last tube sections and the gaps between heaters. Chore-Time and HeatStar® AG* solved this limitation with the exclusive design of the JET™ Series Heaters.

Moving Up the Charts
JET™ Series Heaters have been shown to improve both feed efficiency and bird performance. When changing from a 40- or 50-foot (12.19- or 15.24-meter) traditional tube heater to a JET25™ Tube Heater, some customers improved their feed conversion ratios with the potential to increase their contract bonus payments.
