Arena Irrigation Systems
Controlled irrigation keeps the quality of the riding surface at its optimum, a perfect base for horses joints, tendons and ligaments during exercise. Where surfaces are not regularly levelled, dragged and watered, the surface is in real danger of being contaminated with the sub-base and the membrane being damaged. Kylix Professional Outdoor or Indoor Arena irrigation systems and arena drag maintain surface quality and rideability.
The best way to achieve an acceptable level, equal moist surface, which is good for horse and rider is the installation of a Kylix Professional Arena Irrigation system.

Professional Indoor Irrigation System
A dust free training environment and stable riding surface are essential for training your horses and maintaining your arena. Dust development is a well-known problem in riding arenas. Low humidity and intensive usage of the soil leads to dust and fine sand blowing up and through the arena. Training under these circumstances indoors is not pleasant nor very healthy for horse or rider’s respiratory system. Where surfaces are not regularly levelled,
If the surface is not dragged and watered, the surface is in real danger of being contaminated with the sub-base and the membrane being damaged!
Riding arenas containing any sand mix can get extremely deep where the surface dries out too much and regular dragging is ignored.
Where the surface (whatever the silica sand mix) is kept damp the density is optimised and tracking is considerably reduced.

Kylix UK’s Automatic Tracked Irrigation System is a unique way of irrigation your indoor system. The central track runs the length of your arena and once activated from the control panel, automatically drives the irrigation truck along the full length of the track and back several times irrigating very accurately the whole surface. Once the programmable session is complete the truck returns back to the parked position which can be completely out of sight.
This system eliminates the need for pipes and spray nozzles distributed throughout the arena reducing maintenance, improving reliability and retaining the beautiful lines of your timber framed roof.
Any combination of arena sizes can be accommodated.

- Standard Plus: 20m x 60m
