[RC] portable hot bath (for the horse!) - Jill Carr

Has anyone used one of these hot bath units?  The Hott Wash unit sells for about $350.00, and I’m trying to decide if having one out in my barn is cheaper or easier than installing a hot water heater in the barn.  During the summer, I use sun-warmed hose water for rinsing off the horses, but during the winter, the hose water is too cold.  My geldings REALLY like warm water for cleaning sheaths and faces, and everything else for that matter, so I’m curious if anyone has had any experience with these. Adding hot water to icy water troughs would be easier that way rather that carrying out buckets of hot water from the house.  Is it economical to use; does it WORK; can you really wash a whole horse with a 4 gallon tank; does it mix hot/cold water reliably, etc.?

 

Thanks!
