Hot Water

[lauraxxx]

Does anyone have any good idea of how to bring hot water from home, enough for bathing and keeping it hot
I live about 20mins from the yard and while I use a couple of flasks for hot water for feed or when hot clothing, I'll obviously need more than a couple of flasks worth for bathing. I can't have a hot water shower/gas shower as I'm not allowed one on the yard and not allowed to ues the plugs on the yard

I fill up at home (I have an outside hot tap) into big water containers that I use to carry water in summer. One container will wash an 11.2 no problem! I also have a submersible shower which is usb and fab as we have no electric or water at the yard

Yes I take a container from home. Similar distance. Stays warm if not hot hot.

25l container, fill with hot water and top up with 2-3 kettles. Wrap in a cheap puffer jacket until needed.

Before I moved to a yard with hot water - absolute luxury, I have a grey - I used large water carriers and stood them in the bath to fill them up. The water was still plenty hot enough 45 mins later, so I could bulk it out with cold water.

I have never had access to hot water on a yard. Do you have to wash or can you get away with a decent groom and cold tail wash?

One sensitive mare that absolutely will not be bathed in old water even on her tail, but fine if warm
