Companies
specializing in designing ice rink arenas offer assistance to its
customers in every aspect, for instance, procurement of equipment,
design and architecture. Portable and permanent icerink for sale
can be designed according to the client's needs. Equipment that is
required in order for the ice arena to function efficiently consists
of four essential components:
- Ice Resurfacer
- Rink Refrigeration
- Lighting, and
- Flooring
An
Ice Resurfacer is a hand-pushed device or a vehicle that is used to
clear the surface of an ice sheet. A very large blade shaves the
surface off the ice, while the auger in front of the blade sweeps the
shavings where as a second auger picks them up.
To
achieve the most efficient Rink Refrigeration, combine ice sheet
refrigeration with under-floor frost prevention and dehumidification.
Reduce operating costs in ice arenas by planning new facilities with
the proven refrigeration innovations. This is critical for being
successful in the first years as well as for the remaining years of
operation.
After
the refrigeration system, lighting is usually an ice arenas
next-largest electricity consumer. Heat must be removed by the
refrigeration system to keep the ice in good condition. This can be
done by reducing lighting energy consumption, which also reduces the
load on the ice plant.
The
floors can be temporary, sand-base, temporary or portable. They are
just like mats and can be rolled out on the prepared sites and
connected to the main supply lines.
Ice
rink constructions differ in regard to the operating conditions and
application.
