Ice Rink Refrigeration Systems

Ice rink refrigeration systems work on the same principles as your refrigerator.

Ice rink refrigeration systems.

For total chilling solutions. Our owners are mechanical engineers that can help design the ideal system for your climate and site. How do ice rink refrigeration systems work. Portable means that the refrigerated rink can be disconnected and stored away.

The chilled pipes keep the ice chilled below freezing by imparting their cold temperature to the pipes and then to the ice. Instead the refrigerant cools brinewater which is an anti freeze agent that is pumped through pipes underneath the ice. From years of ice rink experience combined with the latest in advanced refrigeration technologies everything ice has launched our new chiller system built exclusively for the green world movement. With over 37 years of dedicated experience within the industry rink tec is proud to be an industry expert sought out from coast to coast and in many countries throughout the world.

Expert ice rink construction. For days that go beyond the system will easily recover when the cold comes back under 50 f. Green means low cost of operations and low impact on the environment. But as refrigeration systems become more sophisticated those looking to jump on the rink building bandwagon must enhance their basic.

The maintenance team sets the refrigeration system s temperature manually based on indoor and outdoor temperatures. Pipes under the skating surface carry super chilled salt water in a low pressure gaseous state. To freeze the rink surface the system pumps 9 000 gallons 34 000 l of freezing brinewater through the pipes and then onto the ice bearing concrete slab. Has been designing and building ice rink refrigeration systems since 1979.

Our basic rink designs will keep ice for as long as it is under 50 degrees f. To exceed stakeholder s expectations and meet government regulatory compliance recreation ice facilities look to berg chilling systems inc. The greenmachine will reduce both your costs and your carbon footprint. We stand behind our reputation.

The main difference between ice rinks and refrigerators or air conditioners is that the refrigerant doesn t cool the ice directly. Regardless of a given facility s location advances in refrigeration made within the past 10 years can translate into higher quality ice for rink users and more cost effective operation for rink owners.
