Efficient and Eco-Friendly Heating for Equestrian Spaces
Client: Green Lane Farm, Surrey
Heating for equestrian facilities is about more than just temperature — it’s about the wellbeing of horses and the peace of mind of their owners. At Green Lane Farm, the IHS team worked closely with Jayne Dillon to address the specific needs of both the horses and the humans caring for them.
At IHS, we specialise in providing infrared heating solutions tailored to the unique needs of equestrian facilities.
“The heater is now in her stable area. She is enjoying standing near the heater & looks very relaxed.”
Challenge
Green Lane Farm faced significant challenges with its old heating system, including:
- Inefficient old gas heating system leading to high bills and overuse.
- Need to create a comfortable area for the horse and foal.
- Potential health risks due to cold conditions.
Solution
Our team at IHS worked with the equestrian centre to understand the requirements and designed an advanced infrared heating solution. Traditional gas or convection heaters were impractical and inefficient for the stables. Infrared heating provided the perfect solution, offering fast, direct warmth without disturbing the animals or wasting energy. Infrared’s ability to penetrate deep into muscles makes it particularly beneficial for equestrian use, helping prevent cold-weather injuries and supporting recovery after exercise.
What sets IHS apart is the care we put into every project. For Green Lane Farm, this meant careful placement to ensure the heaters were effective but safely out of the horses’ reach. Jayne’s positive experience, leading her to order a second heater, is a testament to how well the solution worked.
Client Testimonial
“I had experienced the heater at another equestrian property. I was impressed with how quickly the device heated up & that it gives a comfortable warmth to the area where we were working with our horses.
I bought the heater because I wanted to create a warm environment for my horses when they were using equipment, in our case an indoor treadmill, in the winter. This is to prevent muscle injury in cold weather. More recently, we have a mare who is due to foal any day now — we wanted to create a warm & comfortable environment for her. The heater is now in her stable area. She is enjoying standing near the heater & looks very relaxed; she also has plenty of room to move away from it should she need to.
The heater is working very well for us & I have requested a second one be sent out to me.”
