Horse Arena Applications
ARENA WATERING SOLUTIONS
Micro Rain arena watering systems are the latest innovation in arena watering. Today's horse owners know the importance of maintaining moisture content in their arena to insure proper footing and control dust to keep horse and rider healthy. Micro Rain systems provide the labor free solution to watering dusty arenas! The diagram shows how the sprinkler travels the length of the arena.
Horse owners have experimented for years with different methods of watering. Hand watering, stationary sprinklers, cumbersome water trucks, fence top sprinklers, and other methods are many times less than adequate and can be eliminated with the Micro Rain system. With staff members knowledgeable in the horse industry, Micro Rain systems have been designed with high speed gearing options, sprinkler head combinations, and model selections to fit most any arena size.
SETUP STEPS
Setting up the Micro Rain system is quick and simple. The reel is positioned at one end of the arena and the sprinkler cart is towed to the opposite end. Only the sprinkler cart travels the arena at your desired speed, applying water evenly and preventing any soil compaction. All models are completely turbine driven, utilizing all of the water that enters the system. Shut down is automatic upon completion of an application setting.
