Quick Chill Cooling Rug for Horses from Equilibrium
The perfect solution to cool the temperature of your horse. This advanced rug utilises water-activated conduction technology to draw heat away from your horses’ body, promoting optimal comfort and cooling during warm weather.
Ideal for:
-
Cooling your horse down without the need to get them soaking wet.
-
Warm competition days to gently cool your horse before, in between or after classes.
-
Horses who get hot when/after travelling.
-
Horses who don’t like the hose, or the feeling of running water.
-
Yards or remote locations where running water may be limited.
-
Training sessions, competitions, or arena hires where access to running water is limited.
-
Countries or areas where hose pipe bans may be enforced.
How to use the Quick Chill Cooling Rug:
Simply submerge the cooling rug in a bucket of water until it is fully saturated, before wringing it out as an effective way to cool your horse down without soaking them.
If you have limited access to water, you can activate the rug as above where you have running water (i.e. at home or the stables), before placing it into a plastic bag and taking it with you to where it is needed. The rug will stay activated in this environment for the rest of the day.
Alternatively, sprinkle water from a hose or bottle of water onto the rug, wring out the excess water and then put on your horse.
We recommend monitoring the temperature of the outside of the rug by feel to ensure it is removed when it feels warm. It can then either be reactivated in water to be used again straight away or left to dry out.
Care should be taken in humid climates and the rug should be checked more often, as humidity can affect the process of evaporation in general, from the rug or even on an un-rugged horse.
How do I care for the Quick Chill Rug?
Machine washable at 30 degrees, so you can quickly and easily clean your rug.
