Water Conservation
Save Up to 70% Compared to Overhead Sprinkler Systems
The HIT Active Aqua system, with its various water zones, can selectively target water supply to sunny or shady parts of your arena. It is the only sub-surface irrigation system on the market that can be dialed in.
No water loss due to evaporation: water is used efficiently and economically, spreading through only the footing. Wall, fence, and side boards remain dry.
How can sand capillarity be measured, and what are the characteristics of good sand?
To select good sand for the footing of a horse arena and to water it efficiently, its capillarity needs to be determined.
“Capillarity” describes how fast moisture travels to the surface of the sand and will determine the correct type of sand to be used.
Contact us for an analysis to determine the suitability of your current footing or we will recommend appropriate sand in your area. When we select new sand and/or any additives for the footing, we will make sure that the appropriate balance of the capillarity needed for irrigation and the properties of the sand match the riders’ and horses’ needs.
HIT Active Aqua Underground Watering System: For Horse Arena Footing That's Just Right
You can't control the weather, but you can control your arena. The HIT Active Aqua underground watering system was designed to provide you with perfect all-weather horse arena footing at all times.
When the weather is dry, it provides automatic, even moisture distribution for up to 70% water savings. And, when it rains, special sensors automatically shut off the watering cycles and excess rain is drained through the system.
