Is Your Soggy Arena Costing You Business?

The Equestrian Raincover by Covermaster is the solution! Whether it is boarding, training, showing or working with students, you need your arena! An arena provides a safe place to ride, learn, warm up and school your horse. When rains or snow hit your arena, you can end up with a muddy puddle that is dangerous to both horse and riders.

You need to remember! Seeing frustrated boarders (looking to other stables for ‘indoor arenas’, or disappointed students you have to cancel because it rained the night before), isn’t just upsetting— it Costs YOU Money!

This System Is FAR More Affordable Than Indoor Arena!

Everyone wants an indoor arena…. but most of them cost 1/4 million or more! The Equestrian Arena Raincover System is far more affordable than building an indoor riding arena!!! Indoor riding arenas are very expensive, and require extensive municipal approvals and permits. A Covermaster Equestrian Arena Raincover is a good way to extend the life of your arena, and can save your footing from being washed away. It will allow you to ride right after a rain storm and has so many affordable benefits.
 


Can My Equestrian Raincover by Covermaster Help Increase My Income?

YES! Just look at a few very key ways the Equestrian Raincover System can help!

1) By allowing you, your boarders, and students to ride, even minutes after a rain or snow storm! Simply roll up your horse arena cover and enjoy! Imagine their delight in knowing that the arena they depend upon is ‘ready to go’ and as enjoyable as ever!

2) Clinicians that depend upon students being able to ride in the safety of an arena, will look to schedule their events at Your facility, knowing that no matter what the weather, as soon as the rain stops, the arena cover can be rolled out of the way and riding can commence!

4) Shows, Barrel Racing Events, can all be notified that you have an arena ready to ‘rent’ if they get rained out! No one wants a canceled show and most will be willing to pay for an alternative place to go. Be sure to let them know about you!


Is There Any Assembly Required or Is It Shipped Ready To Go?

Your Equestrian Arena Raincover is shipped rolled up on a pallet, and will require off-loading the truck. A standard Dressage size arena cover of approximately 72ft x 200ft will weigh about 500 lbs., and a larger 100`x 200`cover will weigh about 750 lbs., so having equipment to off load the truck will be helpful.


How Do I Install It?

The pallets should be moved into the arena, where it can be unpackaged, unrolled, and stretched out over the arena. You many need several extra people for the initial installation— your excited clients or trainers, will no doubt want to help. Remember, you do this once and have a problem solved for Years to come! 


What About The "TarpMate Air Roller"?

The TarpMate Air Roller may arrive on a separate shipment. You will need a portable leaf blower (not included) to inflate the roller tube. Once the tarp is fully stretched out on the arena, you can unpack the TarpMate Air Roller, and inflate it with a portable leaf blower. Position the roller at one end of the tarp, about 10ft from the end of the arena, so you can fold the end of the tarp over the roller, tucking in the end so that you can start rolling up the cover. Roll the cover up to the opposite end of the arena where you will want to store it during the rainy season. Secure the roller so it does not unroll on its own.

Is There A Choice Selection For The Equestrian Raincover System?

How Do I Use It To Prepare For Rain?

It is so easy! When you anticipate rain, you can unroll the tarp back over the arena footing, and secure with sandbags or to the perimeter arena fence posts to keep it snug and protected. Then, let the rain come— your arena is protected and going to be good and dry when the deluge is over!


Is The TarpMate Air Roller Easy To Use?

The TarpMate Air roller for your Covermaster Equestrian Arena Raincover System is very easy to use. After the initial set up, we recommend a minimum of two people to unroll the cover over the arena. If more people are available it will speed up the process for rolling it back up, especially if there is rain remaining on the cover after it rains.


Is Covermaster Easy To Use and Store?

The equestrian riding arena cover system can be stored at the end of the riding arena during the rainy season, so that it can be deployed at a moment’s notice. However, when you are anticipating weeks of great weather, the rolled up cover and TarpMate Air together, can be deflated into a long flat sausage. At this point it can be folded or rolled up, strapped and carefully be removed from the arena to a clean storage area that is not exposed to the sun. When rain is once again in the forecast, bring the system back into the arena, unfold or roll out the flat sausage, then inflate the TarpMate Air roller with the raincover on it. Once inflated, you can then position the system at the end of the arena and roll it back out as needed.
 


What Is The Cost for a Typical Dressage Arena?

Remember, this is so much more Affordable than an Indoor arena!!! Pricing is based on square footage of material required for an arena. The based width of most raincover material is 12`wide, and we fabricate the covers by heat sealing sections together. Standard width sizes on our Raincovers are fabricated in 12' increments. Finished sizes are slightly narrower due to seaming. Additional Charges will apply for non-standard widths.
 


A typical Dressage Court is 20m x 60m, (65.6`x 197`)
Therefore the closest standard size without customization would be 72`x 197`. Estimated price would be between $3000 – $5500 depending on level of Material— so much less costly than an indoor arena! A larger standard size 108`x 200`cover will be in the range of $4000 - $9000. We offer TarpMate Air Rollers in two standard sizes of 75` for about $1900, and a 95`Roller for $2200, and custom length rollers are available. Yes there are three levels of material from our Raincover Max industry standard, to Raincover Premiere light weight, to our premium Raincover Ultra cover. All three products are amazing, so please ask us about the advantages and benefits for each. We will help you find the cover that matches your requirements.

The Solution Section (FAQ)
What are Arena Protection Covers by Covermaster, and what problem do they solve?
Arena Protection Covers by Covermaster, Inc. are equestrian raincovers that roll out over your outdoor arena footing to keep it clean and dry, fully protected from rain and snow. Instead of canceling rides after a storm and losing boarders, students, or clinic income, you simply roll up the cover and ride. It's a far more affordable alternative to building an indoor arena.
How much does an arena raincover cost?
Pricing is based on the square footage of material your arena needs. A standard 72' x 197' cover (the closest size to a typical 20m x 60m Dressage court) runs roughly $3,000 to $5,500 depending on material grade, and a larger 108' x 200' cover runs about $4,000 to $9,000. Covermaster provides a no-charge quotation based on your specific requirements.
What material grades does the Equestrian Raincover System come in?
There are three levels of material: Raincover Max, the industry standard; Raincover Premiere, a lighter weight option; and Raincover ULTRA, the premium cover. Covermaster will walk you through the advantages of each so you get the cover that matches your arena and climate.
What is the TarpMate Air Roller and do I need one?
The TarpMate Air Roller is an inflatable tube that lets you roll the raincover up and unroll it back over the arena with ease. It's offered in two standard sizes — about 75' for roughly $1,900 and a 95' roller for $2,200 — with custom lengths available. You inflate it with a portable leaf blower (not included), and it may ship separately from the cover.
How heavy are the covers and is assembly required?
The covers ship rolled up on a pallet and require off-loading from the truck, so it helps to have equipment on hand. A standard Dressage-size cover (about 72' x 200') weighs roughly 500 lbs, and a larger 100' x 200' cover weighs about 750 lbs. For the initial setup you'll want several extra people to unroll and stretch it over the arena.
How does the system work day to day once it's installed?
When rain is in the forecast, you unroll the tarp over your footing and secure it with sandbags or to the perimeter fence posts. After the storm passes, you roll it back up with the TarpMate Air Roller and ride right away. During the rainy season the rolled cover can be stored at one end of the arena, ready to deploy at a moment's notice.
Can I store the cover away during long stretches of good weather?
Yes. When weeks of dry weather are ahead, the rolled cover and TarpMate Air Roller can be deflated together into a long flat 'sausage,' then folded or rolled, strapped, and moved to a clean storage area out of the sun. When rain returns, bring it back, unroll it, re-inflate the roller, and you're ready again.
