Horse blanket dryers make your stable more hygienic
The horse blanket biotope
Horse blankets cover large areas of a horse’s body. Especially stable blankets, which are worn almost all day by shorn horses in winter, can turn into veritable biotopes in a matter of days. Add moisture from rain and sweat to the mix, and things really get cooking. Mites, bacteria and other germs that live on horse blankets are positively thriving in a moist warm climate. One sign of this is the bad smell of moist horse blankets.
It goes without saying that horse blankets need to be washed frequently. But for the time in between laundry days, it is advisable to make sure that stable and cooler blankets get thoroughly dried. The quick drying process of horse blankets achieved with the Summerwind Horse Blanket Dryer can at least keep the rapid proliferation of germs at bay. This prevents the horse from developing skin irritations and curbs unpleasant smells in the stable.
Pre-heater
Without a doubt, drying horse blankets is the main purpose of the Summerwind Horse Blanket Dryer. However, the device can also be used to gently warm up stable blankets before laying them on. This certainly will increase the horse’s well-being, especially if it’s shorn.
