The Solution Section (FAQ)

What are Kool Kurtains™ and how do they keep horses cooler?

Kool Kurtains™ are shade panels made from CS80 (Certified Shade 80), an exclusive textile that is scientifically tested and certified to deflect up to 80% of the sun's heat rays. They provide passive cooling and environmental screening for your equine facility while still permitting airflow, so your shelter or barn stays cooler in the heat of the day. The exact percentage of deflection varies with the angle of the sun.

Where can I use Kool Kurtains™ on my horse property?

Kool Kurtains™ are great for run-in sheds, barn aisles, stall doors, dutch doors, and arenas. They create a cooler, more bug-free and bird-free haven for your horses wherever you need shade or insect and bird screening. Custom orders can also fit horse trailers, dog shelters, barn windows, patios, and more.

What colors do Kool Kurtains™ come in, and do darker colors really repel more bugs?

The three standard colors are Black, Dark Bay (chocolate brown), and Natural Weave (light beige tweed), with custom colors available at an additional price in White, Hunter Green, Grey, and Beige. All colors offer the exact same cooling properties since all are certified CS80. The darker colors do help repel bugs a little better and let slightly less light in, so it appears a bit darker inside.

What sizes do Kool Kurtains™ panels come in?

Panels come standard at 35.5 inches wide and in standard lengths in 6-inch increments from 7.0 feet through 10.0 feet, with custom lengths available. Each panel has a 2-inch reinforced header with grommets at the top for easy installation. Panels should overlap each other by 4 to 6 inches and are usually attached to the inside header of the aisle or run-in.

How do I measure for Kool Kurtains™?

You only need to take two measurements: the height of the open space (how tall it is) and the length (how wide it is). If your run-in shed has a pole or post in the middle, measure each section separately so the post stays exposed and your horses don't run into it. Kool Kurtains™ should never touch the ground or cover a center post, and should hang 4 to 6 inches off the ground so your horse doesn't step on them.

Are Kool Kurtains™ easy to install, and can I leave them up in winter?

Yes, installation is easy: some customers hang them with large cup hooks, while others use heavy-duty staples, with the choice largely dictated by how much wind they'll encounter. You can absolutely leave them up year-round, even in colder climates. Many customers keep them on run-in sheds all winter because they help keep out rain and snow, preserve bedding, and provide protection from cold winter winds.

How much do Kool Kurtains™ cost?

Kool Kurtains™ cost $69 to $99 per panel, depending on how tall a panel you need, and each is 35.5 inches wide with a slight overlap. As an example, a 15-foot-wide opening that is 8 feet tall, with no pole in the middle, takes about 5 panels ordered at 7.5 feet tall (so the curtain hangs 4 to 6 inches off the ground).
