How Every Color Kennel Fares in the Summer Heat

We tested the surface and interior temperatures of every kennel we've released after a full day of sitting in the sun. Here are the results.

How Every Color Kennel Fares in the Summer Heat

Most heat transfer from the sun takes place on the far infrared spectrum. Looking at our kennels on far-infrared wavelengths, our kennels would all look the same as they are all made with the same resin. A small amount of heat transfer on the visible light spectrum will cause the kennel's exterior to feel warmer.

With that being said, the double wall construction eliminates any difference your dog would feel. The surface may feel different; however, the inside will feel the same.
