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?

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 Rollermay 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.

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`coverwill 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 Maxindustry 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.

What exactly is a Covermaster arena raincover?

A Covermaster, Inc. equestrian raincover is a heavy-duty, full-coverage tarp engineered to lie over your riding arena footing the way a baseball-field tarp protects an infield. When rain is in the forecast, you unroll the cover across the surface; once the weather clears, you roll it back up and ride. The footing stays dry and intact underneath, so there is little to no waiting for the arena to drain and dry out. Covermaster positions this as an economical alternative to building a covered riding arena, delivered at a fraction of the cost and construction time.

Who makes these covers and how long have they been at it?

Covermaster, Inc. has manufactured sports-surface protection products since 1969, supplying groundskeepers at professional and collegiate athletic fields around the world for more than five decades. That same field-tarp engineering carries directly into the equine line. The company's roots in protecting major-league turf are why their equestrian covers are built to commercial-grade standards rather than hobby specs. Reach the company toll-free, internationally at +, in Europe at +44 (0) 2038 685082, or by.

The three cover grades: Raincover Max, Ultra, and Premier.
Covermaster offers the arena raincover in three fabric tiers so you can match the material to your budget and how hard the cover will work: Raincover Max™ (model RCM), Raincover Ultra™ (model RCU), and the top-of-line Raincover Premier™ (model RC600). Stepping up a grade buys you a tougher, longer-lasting fabric for facilities that deploy and retract the cover frequently or face harsher climates. Every cover is custom-built to the exact footprint of your arena rather than sold as an off-the-shelf size, which is why pricing is quoted per project.

Roll it out, roll it up: the Tarpmate AIR roller system.
Because an arena cover is large and heavy, Covermaster pairs it with handling equipment that lets a small crew manage the whole sheet. The Covermaster TarpMate™ Air Roller (model Tpmt-AR) is an inflatable core that fills in seconds with an ordinary backpack blower, giving you a lightweight roll-up spindle that dramatically cuts the time and labor of putting the cover down and taking it back up. Covermaster also offers the manual TarpMate Roller (model Tpmt) and a powered Tarp Machine (model TPM) for the largest arenas, plus SurGrip™ vinyl-reinforced handles billed as the strongest in the industry.

Built for every discipline and arena shape.
Covermaster custom-fabricates covers for dressage courts, show-jumping and hunter rings, rodeo arenas, lunging circles, and eurosizer rings. A standard dressage court of roughly 72 ft by 197 ft and larger arenas around 108 ft by 200 ft are both routinely covered, and odd shapes are handled because each cover is made to order. Anchoring accessories such as Masterstake™ Tarp Pins, Sur-Hold vinyl sandbags, and Evergreen® anchor pins keep the cover secure in wind. If a cover is ever damaged, the Raincover-Aid and Vinyl-Aid repair systems extend its service life on site.

How to get a no-charge quotation.
Because every cover is sized to your specific arena, Covermaster prices each job individually rather than listing a shelf price; published trade figures put a standard dressage-court cover in the range of roughly $3,000 to $5,500 and a larger 108 ft by 200 ft cover at about $4,000 to $9,000 depending on the fabric grade you choose. Call for a no-charge quotation based on your arena's dimensions, footing, and how often you expect to deploy the cover. The team can also recommend the right handling system and anchoring package so the cover is practical for your crew to operate day to day.
