Insta-Hot® Pro Portable Equine Washing System
Hot Water for Your Horse, Anywhere You Can Set Down a Propane Tank
70,000 BTU of heat turns a garden hose into a warm bath in seconds: up to 3 gallons a minute, as much as 96°F warmer than the tap, off a standard 20 lb propane tank. Two dials and an LED readout set the temperature. Outdoor use only.

Portable Horse/Dog wash
"My husband attached our heater and LP tank to an old hose real wagon we had here in the farm and now I can move it around from house to barn and anywhere my hose will reach. I have used this set up for 2 seasons now and our horses LOVE the warm water. No more dancing around from the cold well water."
Works great!
"Works great!"
Insta hot pro portable hot water
"Bought the 1st one when it worked it was great, but the battery holder kept popping out, reached out to manufacture they said that wasn’t normal and I must have done something to break it. Stupidly bought another one same thing happened, no help, no refund, no response from them. Cheap plastic clip does not hold"
Insta Hot does not fit
"Insta Hot does not fit the cart that was sold with it. Bracket at bottom is to small to except mount from cart."
InstaHot works GREAT!
"Love these systems!! This is my second one. They work so nicely. My horses and dogs appreciate the warm water and it also works great for tack cleaning!!! Just make sure you winterize properly before the cold snap hits!!"
ok
"When i use it at home on city water pressure it is great. My barn has an older pump that does not have steady pressure, so the heat will go out and water will be cold, i have to re light it every so often. ALSO, how the heck do you drain this thing for winter storage?! There is no info in the booklet, and i cant find info online"
My Horses LOVE It
"I have the Instahot Pro on the cart and it’s pretty easy to start up and use. Great for rinsing horses down in any weather with the adjustable temperature. They really appreciate the gentle stream of warm water, especially after being rinsed with ice cold well water. I would often not hose them because of the chill, but now can get their dirty and sweaty parts clean without them fidgeting and giving me the stink eye."
Super helpful item
"I love this water heater it is easy to use and really combinent to have"
Insta Hot is "HOT!"
"It's always been a challenge to bathe my horses in cooler temps. Someone told me about the Insta hot. I read about it and decided to try it. What a great product! It was easy to assemble. The cart made it easy to transport it from barn to barn. The water is warm almost immediately and the horses love it. Wonderful product. Five stars!"
