Go-Anywhere Hot Shower For Livestock
 ✖  |
After seeing a portable hot water shower designed for campers, it suddenly dawned on the staff at Schneiders, a horse supply company, that they could offer something similar for horses. "We approached the manufacturer and asked them to modify it," says Charles Pinnell, Schneiders representative.
The Insta-Hot washing system was introduced at the 2010 Quarter Horse Congress and orders have been pouring in ever since.
Insta-Hot hooks directly to a water supply and heats up within seconds. There are two dials. One controls the temperature from 80 to 150 degrees. The other sets the rate for the best pressure and temperature flow. Generally, a 20-lb. propane tank provides about 18 hrs. of washing at a flow of 1.4 gal./minute.
The whole package, including gas hookup, sells for $149.95. The unit's on/off switch requires two D batteries (not included). For convenience, Schneiders also offers a customized cart to hold the unit, hose, propane tank and grooming tools for $64.95.
"Many of our customers are show horse people," Pinnell says. "And this unit is becoming popular with 4-H programs and other show animal groups -- anywhere you need instant hot water. And people can still use it for themselves, too."
