Locating and Mounting
the Heater
The heater is designed to provide radiant heat to the
entire creep mat or creep area on both sides of the crate
divider.
To properly utilize the heater, the producer must deter
-
mine:
a. Desired position of the heat zone relative to the sow
b. Location of the creep mat relative to the sow.
Individual preferences will vary from producer to
producer. Nonetheless consideration must be given
to prevention of heat stress on the sow. See Fig. 3
for typical heater location.
Regardless of mat location, the heater is mounted
6 - 8 inches from center of mat (away from sow’s head) to
provide proper heat coverage of the mat.
