The key to getting the most out of your Utimate Horse Stall Mat is to have good drainage. Remember the urine goes right through.That's how you save. You can check the drainage by pouring a bucket of water in the stall.  If the water soaks in rather quickly, it should be fine to proceed with installation.  If the water sits and has trouble draining then the ground needs some work.  One way is to create a leach pit by digging a hole about 18" x 18” x 18”  and filling with some sort of gravel or small stone usually available in bags at any garden center.  Leave the leach pit slightly lower and slope the surrounding area to it.  Basically whatever it takes to get the ground to drain is key.  Four or five inches of gravel topped with four or five inches of sand also works well





WOOD STALLS

Center the Stall Liner in the stall with the rough shiny side facing up and the fury side facing down.  Let the excess material run up the wall and screw the molding over Stall Liner securing it to wall at the desired height.  Cut off excess with a razor knife





CONCRETE STALLS 
Tap-con a pressure treated 1x4 or 1x6 to the wall prior to installation. Proceed with installation





( Paddocks - Wash Racks ) Use treated lumber to make a frame level with the ground fasten the material to the frame
 

 

 Maintenance: For harsh ammonia buildup treat area with a disinfectant. (e.g. Pinesol and water) poured through the stall liner. There are also other products such as sweet PDZ, Stall dry, Zeolite and others that work well. Also make sure you use plenty of bedding 8 to 9 inches to get the maximum life out of your liner. Remember it's not how much bedding you put in but rather how little you will take out.
