HIT Active-Aqua
Drip irrigation
Keeping horses is closely linked to the optimal design of riding surfaces for different purposes. The horse’s well-being is also influenced by the properties of the riding surfaces. Floors that are too loose, too hard, slippery or dusty pose major health risks for horse and rider. In addition to the choice of suitable footing materials, an even moisture content has a very positive effect on the riding surface properties. The HIT Active-Aqua underfloor irrigation ensures that the riding surface is permanently and evenly moistened. The system, consisting of drip lines, HIT floor grids and a control unit, is extremely water-saving compared to above-ground irrigation concepts. The significant improvement in the riding surface properties in combination with the environmentally friendly water saving makes HIT Active-Aqua particularly interesting for future-oriented equestrian businesses.

FAQs
A safe, non-slip floor is essential in equestrian sports to avoid injuries of horse and rider. To give the riding surface the necessary slip resistance consistent irrigation of the surface is essential. The HIT Active-Aqua riding surface irrigation ensures a uniform, permanent moisture penetration of the surface and therefore significantly improves the riding surface properties.

Due to the design of the “HIT Draingrid floor grid”, a key component of the HIT Active Aqua riding surface irrigation, increases the elasticity of the riding surface. This is due to the slightly springy shape of the floor grid, which makes the riding surface less dull.

Water scarcity is an ongoing problem and in equestrian sports resource-saving systems are more important than ever before. With the HIT Active-Aqua, demand for water to irrigate the riding surface can be reduced by up to 40% compared to other overland systems. Sub surface irrigation reduces evaporation, and less water is carried away by wind.

Due to the full-surface laying of the drip pipes in the riding arena, an average of 15 drippers are distributed per square meter. Therefore, HIT Active Aqua can ensure a uniform irrigation of the entire arena. In contrast with sprinkler irrigation, there is often overlapping irrigation and parts of the riding surface watered twice while others hardly at all.

During irrigation by hand or with a sprinkler system you cannot use the riding arena. The HIT Active-Aqua Drip irrigation avoids such downtimes by automating irrigation via a computer (or by request via a smartphone app). In the everyday operation of an equestrian facility this can lead to a considerable time saving.

The HIT Active-Aqua riding surface irrigation is suitable for both indoor and outdoor arenas. Also due to the low installation height, this system is also very well suited for retrofitting on existing riding arenas / riding halls.
