Super Therm: The Ultimate Solution for Texas Horse Breeders

Texas horse breeders face unique challenges during the extreme summer heat. Keeping horses comfortable and healthy in temperatures that regularly exceed 100°F requires innovative solutions that go beyond traditional ventilation and cooling methods.

Heat Stress in Horses: A Serious Concern

Heat stress in horses can lead to serious health issues and reduced performance. Warning signs include:

  • Excessive sweating and panting
  • Elevated heart rate and temperature
  • Lethargy and reduced appetite
  • In severe cases, heat stroke

Traditional Cooling Methods Fall Short

While fans, misting systems, and ventilation help, they often can't keep up with Texas heat when barn roofs are absorbing massive amounts of solar energy. A metal barn roof can reach 160°F+, turning the structure into an oven.

Super Therm® Transforms Barn Environments

Super Therm® ceramic coating creates a dramatic transformation in barn temperature control:

  • Surface temperatures reduced by 40-60°F
  • Interior temperatures reduced by 10-20°F
  • More comfortable environment for horses and handlers
  • Reduced stress on ventilation systems
