Radiant Floor Heating

Posted on February 25, 2011 by Rob

Radiant Floor Heat with Crete-Heat Floor Panels and DIY Heaters

Installing a radiant heating system in a new slab doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive. These systems provide very economical and efficient heat to large areas in a quiet and cost-effective manner.

PRICE REDUCED !! – You simply cannot afford to install radiant floor heating without this product!

You certainly cannot afford the energy lost into the ground!

Radiant Floor Insulated Panels

These 2′ x 4′ panels are available in 1″, 2″ and 3″ thickness for varying R-values. Each panel has a vapor barrier and the edges overlap to interlock together for ease of installation. The overlaps also minimize movement when installing the PEX and pouring the concrete.

The knobs on each panel hold the PEX securely in place and allow you to walk directly on them to push the PEX into place. They add approximately 7/8″ of an inch to the listed panel thickness. As and example, the 2″ panels offer 2″ of insulating thickness and the knobs add another 7/8″ on top of that for an overall thickness of 2-7/8″.

Electric Heaters for Radiant Floor Heat

CHOOSE YOUR RMS MODEL ACCORDING TO THE SPACE YOU WISH TO HEAT IN YOUR BASEMENT OR GARAGE, AND YOUR ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Square Feet	RMS Model	Loops	BTU/h
350 to 600	RMS-7	2	23890
610 to 900	RMS-7	2	23890
910 to 1200	RMS-11	3	37540
1210 to 1500	RMS-11	4	37540

ELECTRIC SERVICE REQUIREMENTS
MODEL	AC VOLTAGE	HEATER AMPS	BREAKER
RMS-7	220/240	29	40 AMPS
RMS-11	220/240	46	60 AMPS

HAVE AREAS LARGER THAN 1800 SQUARE FEET? NO PROBLEM
Areas larger than 1800 square feet should be subdivided and served with two or more RMS units sized for each area.

EXAMPLE #1: A 2500 square foot basement could be treated as two 1250 square foot areas each served by one RMS11 having 4 loops each.

EXAMPLE #2: Two temperature zones are desired in the 2500 square foot basement, one 760 square foot zone could be served by one RMS7 with 2 300 foot loops, and the remaining 1760 square foot area served by one RMS11 with 5 300 foot loops. (Thermal isolation is required)

Cattle guard choices and designs

Posted on February 25, 2011 by Rob

There are many different choices when selecting a cattle guard for your livestock containment needs. They may be called by various names (Texas gates, animal guards, cattle grids, cow guards etc.) but they all are built around the same great idea: provide a visual deterrent coupled with a physical barrier to keep livestock from crossing. This provides containment for your herd while allowing vehicle crossings without a gate!

Rated Cattle Guards

The rated cattle guards are designed for highway use and certified to meet the specifications needed for State and Federal requirements such as DOT installations. They’re design and construction is certified by an engineer to meet the required load ratings.

Cattle Guard Load Ratings

H-15 (12 tons per axle)

H-20 (16 tons per axle)

U-54 (25 tons per axle)

U-80 (30 tons per axle)

They’re available in flat top rail designs in a powder-coated finish as well as the more economical round top rail design that’s coated in a tough enamel. They will provide years of rugged service in heavy-duty high traffic public areas.

These are also available for private driveways such as farms and ranch applications. This design in much more economical and we estimate the load-carry capacity at 12 tons per axle. That’s plenty for most driveway use and easily support fully-loaded semis. We call them ‘Standard Cattle Guards.’

Cattle Guard – Standard

Barn World’s private-use, economical choice of the standard guard is a very popular option for driveways. They are made with NEW 3″ Schedule 40 steel with the same construction technique used on the rated guards.

All of the round top rail designs may be ordered with optional wings, integral box, or removable box.

ATV cattle guards

are unique in the industry. They’re built for quick and easy installation and attach directly to your fence line without the need for a foundation. We recommend providing sufficient drainage to the area and keeping it clear of overgrowth from surrounding vegetation. Other than that, simply set in your fence line, attach the fencing to the uprights and you’re done!

Options

All cattle guards may be fitted with plow strips that allow plows to cross over the guard with minimal interference and wear.

All round top rail designs may be outfitted with a removable box for easier cleaning as an option.

They may also have a steel skirt welded to the perimeter which allows it to be placed directly on the ground without the need for a foundation.

Barn World has a cattle guard to meet your needs. Please call us (720) 238-2190 with your questions and to obtain shipping quotes. We can also provide professional bid packages for large company, military, and government programs and carry a large selection for all of your livestock equipment needs.

Hay Tarps at Barn World

Posted on February 18, 2011 by Rob

The Bull Flex™ hay tarp is specifically designed for the cost-conscious customer who wants a tarp that is built tough as bull hide yet flexible enough to meet all of your covering needs.

We offer it to you at about the same price as you would pay for a farm store loop-style hay tarp plus we give you stronger fabric (7oz), stronger tie-down tabs, and a chuck wagon end that allows you to keep the Bull Flex™ hay tarp ends from flapping in the wind. You also get the opportunity to purchase the Super Cinch tie-down kit, and we can train you to install it correctly. You will find much more quality is built into the Bull Flex™ than the typical farm supply store offers.

When it comes to securing the sides of the Bull Flex™ hay tarp to your haystack, this tarp has the best of two worlds! It comes with high-strength 2″ webbing loops at 3′ spacing to tighten your tarp to the haystack instead of traditional grommets. The webbing loops provide up to 300% more strength than grommets. The Bull Flex™ hay tarp also has an innovative pocket sewn the length of the tarp on both sides. This allows you to slip a pipe into the pocket (especially on round bale stacks) and tie down the tarp in the same manner as the popular Performer™ Hay Tarp.

The weight and strength combination of the Bull Flex™ averages nearly 20% greater than most competitive products. When combined with the use of our patented Super Cinch™ tie-down system, you come up with a winning combination that beats out other grommet and loop-style hay tarps.

Those customers who use the hay rely upon a hay tarp or hay barn to protect the hay they purchased until the livestock have consumed it. If hay is not protected, mold and bacteria cause spoilage of the hay. Spoiled hay fed to livestock can create health problems. Be sure and protect your hay and get maximum production from your livestock.

The Bull Flex™ hay tarps come in ten different sizes: from 14×52 up to the massive 45×52!

Visit Barn World today for all of your hay tarp and livestock equipment needs, or call (720) 238-2190 / email Sales@BarnWorld.com.
