Hatchmaker / Polyhatch / Hatchmaster
These air incubators are long-standing class leaders. They offer an unbeatable combination of reliability, longevity, simplicity and value for money. The natural convection system in this still air incubator range provides near ideal conditions for hatching and is flexible and easy to use.
Hatchmaster A Incubator
The Hatchmaster A turns the eggs completely automatically and safely on an hourly cycle. The patented system ensures safe and reliable rotation of almost any sized eggs without the need to purchase accessories*.
If hatching in a Hatchmaster 'A' the turning system can be disconnected and with the end covers (supplied) in place and the dividing rods removed, there is no opportunity for the chicks to injure themselves on the turning mechanism.
*Note: For quail or other very small eggs, special egg troughs are recommended. These are not supplied as standard but are usually available from stock.
Features:
- Temperature control is provided by proven proportional electronic system which gives very accurate and stable control unaffected by voltage variations and changes in barometric pressure.
- The sensor and thermometer are mounted in a swivel clip which facilitates easy adjustment to suit a wide range of egg sizes.
- Temperature adjustment is made by turning an externally mounted spindle. This multi-turn device allows very fine adjustment of temperature and is not easily turned accidentally.
- Each machine is moulded from integrally skinned structural polyurethane which has a core of thermal insulation and hard, durable, impervious surfaces making it readily washable and tough enough to withstand scrubbing.
- Polyurethane is amongst the toughest of plastics and must not be confused with cheap, fragile alternatives like expanded polystyrene. The excellent thermal properties of polyurethane foam result in low heat losses and low power consumption.
- The natural convection system provides near ideal conditions for hatching and is flexible and easy to use.
- Other features include a removable double glazed window and external access to water reservoirs.

Whilst the Hatchmaser H can be used effectively to incubate from day one throught o hatching, the lack of automatic turning makes it more suitable for reptiles or as a hatcher.
