Zoological Heating

SunSwitch heaters, together with our range of controls and sensors, provide a complete basking zone solution for animals.

Research and trials by the British and Irish Zoo Association concluded that the type of shortwave infrared produced by BaskZone heaters is ideal for basking zones in animal enclosures. Their performance has been independently assessed validated.

When we keep animals in captivity, recreating the environmental conditions of their indigenous habitats is vital for their survival and good health. This includes maintaining appropriate levels of temperature, humidity and light appropriate to the species, wherever they may have come from. In the natural world nearly all animals like to bask—some in full sun—and some in the filtered light of trees, vegetation or rocky outcrops.

Our heaters are designed to be used in zoos, wildlife parks and on farms.
