Designed to support clinical workflows +

Post-operative hypothermia is a common concern during recovery—especially after patients move from surgery to kennel housing. Tailwind maintains warming directly within the kennel, reducing frequent adjustments and minimizing staff intervention during critical recovery periods.

How it works +

Temperature-controlled air is delivered through a rigid, ducted cot platform to warm the patient evenly from below. When the kennel door is closed, the system automatically seals and reconnects airflow, creating a stable warming environment without hoses or blankets inside the enclosure.

Built for clinical use +

Uniform heat distribution without hot spots or direct-contact heating
No hoses inside the kennel to reduce clutter and patient interference
Rigid steel frame for stability during patient movement
Antimicrobial mesh surface for fast, non-absorbent cleaning
Automatic airflow reconnection when the kennel door is closed

Warming unit compatibility +

Bair Hugger® (via included adapter)
BedJet®
Other forced-air warming systems with compatible hose output
