Did you know that inadequate heating can significantly impact a horse's health, leading to respiratory issues and discomfort? Providing your horses with food, water and shelter is not enough during the cold winter months. Equestrian heating is essential for maintaining the health and comfort of your horses during colder months. However, equestrian spaces are extremely hard to heat as they are draughty, open spaces with large stable doors that are consistently opening and closing. Furthermore, these areas require specialised features such as a horse’s eyes is highly sensitive to light making high glare heaters unsafe.
Traditional heating systems used to heat these areas, such as convection and fan heaters, are not successful at providing suitable warmth in these large spaces. This is because it takes a long time to heat up all of the air in the room as well as when the air is eventually heated, this warm air rises, leaving the horses below cold and uncomfortable. This leads to high running costs and ineffective heating as well as significantly reducing the welfare of the horses under your care.
Traditional methods often fall short, making infrared heaters for stables a superior choice. These advanced horse stable heating solutions provide efficient and immediate warmth, addressing the unique needs of equestrian environments. The infrared heating benefits for horses include gentle, direct heat that penetrates the skin, ensuring your animals stay warm and comfortable without the high energy costs associated with conventional heating systems.
