The Overhead Mount Sweeter Heater is safe, energy efficient, indestructible, and reliable. This is an infrared radiant heater, intended to heat the animal underneath. Infrared heat is absorbed by the animal underneath. Unless measuring heat with a radiant heat gun, a thermometer will only measure the heat that is released from the animal. It's not a space heater and will not feel hot like one. Designed to be hung or suspended from a ceiling or bracket from above, approximately 6-20 inches over the animals to be warmed. There are no hot spots, develops a uniform heat pattern, and has a 3-year warranty. The surface temperature of the lens will range from a safe 160-180 degrees (F) and will not burn your animals. It is designed to warm the animal, not the environment and is fully adjustable to maintain the ideal comfort level for your animals. For additional safety measures, the Sweeter Heater has an internal snap action thermal control to insure heaters turns off automatically when heat is not allowed to escape. The 11x40 model has up to 440 square inches of soft uniform infrared heat and if using for brooding chicks, we suggest 50-75 chicks will fit comfortably (also dependent upon environmental factors). Sweeter Heaters are ideal for use in chick brooders, chicken coops, whelping areas, goats, kennel runs, farrowing units, dog and cat houses/crates, rabbits, bees, and bird and reptile cages. The SWEETER HEATER develops a uniform heat pattern, it uses less power to operate, it is unbreakable, it is sealed so it can be washed. Average weekly energy cost to run 24x7 is $3.02. ## Features - Safe, energy efficient, indestructible and reliable. - No hot spots and develops a uniform heat pattern, using less power - Internal Thermostat that will automatically shut the unit off if heat is not allowed to escape - Overhead Mount (top) for suspending overhead, chain & hooks included - Sweeter Heater has been tested and proven by our customers since 1995 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Heating Coverage | 440 square feet | | Heating Element | Radiant | | Heat Output | 150 Watts | | Fuel Type | Electric | | Heating Method | Radiant | | Recommended Uses For Product | Garage, Greenhouse | | Mounting Type | Floor Mount | | Room Type | Living Room | | Additional Features | Energy Efficient | | Form Factor | Pedestal | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Item Weight | 7 Pounds | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 40"D x 11"W x 2"H | | Color | White | ## Product Details - **Brand:** SWEETER HEATER - **Special Feature:** Energy Efficient - **Color:** White - **Form Factor:** Pedestal - **Indoor/Outdoor Usage:** Indoor ## Images ![Safe Heater for Chicks, Coops, & Animals, OH11x40, 150 Watt - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81O8hvPxUeL.jpg) ![Safe Heater for Chicks, Coops, & Animals, OH11x40, 150 Watt - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51q0ttOW0sL.jpg) ![Safe Heater for Chicks, Coops, & Animals, OH11x40, 150 Watt - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51awNtbMBnS.jpg) ![Safe Heater for Chicks, Coops, & Animals, OH11x40, 150 Watt - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41B2VGtT5PL.jpg) ![Safe Heater for Chicks, Coops, & Animals, OH11x40, 150 Watt - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51GuWbw2GNL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can this be plugged into an extension cord safely?** A: For two years I have plugged two into 25 foot extension cords. They don’t draw many amps. It is a dedicated circuit however **Q: Where is this product made?** A: The sweeter heaters are made in the USA, more specifically in Rice Lake Wisconsin in **Q: Can I stick this in a python enclosure That is 8' long 3' wide 26" tall** A: Hello and thank you for your question. This product is 11 inches wide, by 40 inches long, by 3 inches tall, so it would definitely fit. I understand that heating retiles/snakes requires a certain amount of heat, so I would suggest connecting our heater to a thermostat (like Zilla) to regulate heat output. You will also need a vent or covered opening so a certain amount of heat will be allowed to escape. This heater is intended to heat a specific area (or what is underneath), but in a tank, it will definitely heat the air as well. **Q: Does it come with chains and S rings?** A: The overhead model comes with s-hooks and chain and the sidemount model comes with screws and brackets. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well, comfortable chicks. *by F***R on June 11, 2025* Arrive quickly, well packaged. Unit looks nice, and contains mounting hardware. Generous power cord length provided. Yes the unit does emit a noticeable smell when first powered up. I placed it outside and powered it up, issue solved. I may have left it powered up for a couple days. Chicks responded well to heater. I am considering purchasing a second. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pampered chickens *by H***J on June 18, 2025* Why did you pick this product vs others?:The girls love their heater. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great! *by S***G on April 6, 2025* This worked great for my chicken’s first winter and gave me a lot of peace of mind. After running it to get rid of the smell, I hung it in the coop even before I needed to turn it on so they could get comfortable with something new overhead. I turned it on once it was below 20 degrees. They would roost directly under it and seemed to be comfortable with the output. It raised the temperature directly below the heater only and not the entire coop, which I understood is how it’s intended to work. I hope this is long lasting but I highly recommend and would buy again if I had to. ## Frequently Bought Together - SWEETER HEATER Safe Heater for Chicks, Coops, & Animals, OH11x40, 150 Watt - Thermo Cube Model TC-3: Thermostatically Controlled Outlet - On at 35-Degrees/Off at 45-Degrees - Farm Innovators TC-2 Thermo Cube Cold Weather Auto On Thermostatic Double Outlet, White --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/35642186-safe-heater-for-chicks-coops-and-animals-oh11x40-150-watt](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/35642186-safe-heater-for-chicks-coops-and-animals-oh11x40-150-watt) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
