Will this cover fit my 60W Chicken Heat Plate?
Yes. This acrylic cover is designed specifically for the 45x60 cm Dine-A-Chook 60W Chicken Heat Plate. It fits securely without tools or clips.
Why should I use a cover on my heat plate?
Chicks often jump on top of heat plates and leave droppings. This cover protects the surface, reduces bacteria build-up, and makes cleaning much easier.
How do I clean the acrylic cover?
Simply lift it off the plate and wipe clean with a damp cloth or mild soap. The smooth acrylic surface is quick and easy to maintain.
Does the cover affect how the heat plate works?
No. The cover is designed to sit above the heating element without blocking warmth. In fact, by keeping the surface clean, it helps the plate work more efficiently.
Is the acrylic material strong?
Yes. It’s made from durable, transparent acrylic that resists wear, scratching, and cracking—even with daily use in the brooder.
Does this include the heat plate?
No. This listing is for the 45x60 cm acrylic protective cover only. The heat plate is sold separately.
