There’s a natural hierarchy in the henhouse, a pecking order if you will. And when it comes to keeping your poultry warm, we believe our quality gas heating systems, servicing, and gas maintenance systems are at the top of the pecking order in Canterbury.
Poultry Provisions
Heating is a precise and vital component of poultry farming, and our commercial gas heaters are there to give your chicks the best start in life, adjusting accordingly on thermostat control as they grow to become fully feathered poultry ready for production.
At Gas Engineering Services (GES), we’ve got everything you need:
- Installation
- Parts
- Service
- Maintenance
- Emergency Callouts
Why Gas?
The majority of Canterbury’s chicken farmers use gas to heat their chicken barns for good reason. A form of self-reliant heating, gas removes the dependence on the lines network and the risk of unplanned power cuts. Any poultry farmer with a barn full of day-old chicks knows the peril this represents – broadly speaking, a cold chick is a dead chick, a catastrophe nobody wishes to experience.
Installed on the exterior of barns, indirect gas heaters reduce energy consumption while ensuring there are no CO2 emissions within the shed. Easily maintained, they provide drier litter, supporting good animal welfare protocols and reducing health issues. Using multiple heaters, one central bank of gas bottles can feed warmth to an entire poultry farm.
Why GES?
GES has the skill and the knowledge to install efficient gas heating systems across entire poultry sheds, ensuring even heat distribution for optimal chick welfare, rather than just heating specific sections. Safe for both chickens and people, when we complete heating for a chicken farm, we return for servicing and maintenance, not poor workmanship.
Furthermore, we’re not limited to installations. Our gas servicing and preventative maintenance facilities are second-to-none, designed to minimise disruptions and keep your systems running smoothly year-round. With our 24/7 emergency hotline, you can rest assured that we’ll be there when it matters, reducing downtime and protecting your valuable livestock from the dangers of heating failures.
Freezing Bottles?
The reality of a Canterbury winter is we get sub-zero temperatures, and with them, gas bottles can freeze. However, this doesn’t need to be a problem. If you foresee any issues with your current set-up, get in touch and we’ll sort you out this summer. This could be as simple as increasing your storage for better vaporisation of gas or we can install a vaporiser.
Preventative Maintenance
Save heartache and save money when you schedule your preventive maintenance with us.
From fans to burners to parts, GES offer a full preventative maintenance programme. You’ll have peace of mind that temperature control is precisely controlled, optimised for chicken welfare and productive metabolism.
