Hello: It sounds to me like the barn was overbuilt for horses. They need food, water and exercise. Depends on how cold the temperature is where you are. In northern Alberta most horses are outdoors in minus very cold weather, with usually a pole barn shelter. In BC where I am now, hobby horses have better shelter than working ones. Still, lots of open area, like a three sides shelter with the front open. Horses do not need a furnace in the barn. (it should not be house temperature) They generate enough heat. They need fresh air. In your barn, probably a good square (2 ft x 2ft)ventilating shaft and air intake would work. If there is a strong amonia odour, two things are wrong. It is too warm, and there is not enough fresh air coming in and warm going out. blessings, Kris
