Respiratory Health

Stabled horses are exposed to high levels of respirable dust which cause mild to severe respiratory health issues. 88% of horses have some level of Inflammatory Airway Disease (IAD).

Haygain hay steamers reduce 99% of airborne respirable dust, mold, fungi and bacteria in hay and haylage.

Haygain hay steamers are used and recommended for respiratory health by world-class riders, trainers, veterinarians and scientists globally.

Prevent

Preventing respiratory issues such as coughing, IAD and Equine Asthma is far easier than the potential long road that comes with treatment and recovery. Steaming hay and haylage eliminates the allergens and other unwanted particles that are a threat to a horse's respiratory health.

"Prevention is always better than cure, so in our barn we like to have our competition horses on steamed hay."

Mild

Mild to moderate IAD can affect horses of all ages. Clinical signs are usually subtle and may or may not include poor performance, nasal discharge and occasional coughing but with normal breathing at rest. A study shows that 88% of horses examined suffered from IAD and steaming hay reduces the risk of IAD by 65%.

"We are incredibly happy to have added the Haygain Hay Steamer to our program, and quickly noticed an increase in the quality of our horses’ breathing, especially in those with respiratory problems."

Severe

Severe equine asthma (SEA) is a performance-limiting allergic airways disease, that affects genetically predisposed horses when exposed to allergens found in the barn. A study found 14% of the UK horse population suffer with SEA, resulting in coughing, nasal discharge and respiratory difficulty.

"Hay is crucial for the health, well-being and performance of horses. Haygain ensures for us that our horses get what they need and nothing that they don’t from their hay.
