Horse arenas have been a part of equestrian sports for many years. They have been used for training, events, and competitions since the early 1900s. Horse arenas are usually built on outdoor spaces, and since they are in open spaces, they don’t have proper sewer or water drainage systems. This means that the area surrounding the arena needs to be properly drained in order to prevent harmful substances from entering the soil and polluting the water table. It is important to understand the different types of drainage systems available for horse arenas so that you can choose the best one for your needs.
A basement drainage system is usually installed in a horse arena if it is built on a basement. A basement drainage system consists of a network of PVC pipes that is installed under the floor of the arena. It is usually installed by a professional contractor, who will also make sure that the pipes are properly connected to the main sewer or water line. The pipes will be emptied regularly to prevent the build-up of soil and debris in the pipes.
An erosion control system is used in horse arenas that are built on top of an existing land. An erosion control system is a series of shallow water-filled basins that are installed around the edges of the ring. The basins help to prevent soil erosion and they also serve as a place for water to collect and be drained away so that it does not get into the ground.
A sump pump system is used in horse arenas that do not have a basement or an erosion control system. A sump pump system consists of a sump pit that is dug in the ground and a PVC pipe that is connected to the sump pit. The PVC pipe is connected to a discharge pipe that is connected to a sewer or water line. The discharge pipe is usually located in a corner of the ring or in a nearby building where the water can be collected and drained away.
