Significantly reducing an ice arena’s total energy consumption involves a holistic approach; the heating requirements for a typical facility are well matched with the waste heat available from the refrigeration process. However, ice rinks require a mix of higher-grade heat for the hot water used in showers and ice resurfacers, as well as lower-grade heat used for building and makeup air heating. Without careful design integration, these buildings frequently fall short of their maximum energy-saving potential. Several integrated designs are compared, and successful design solutions for both the refrigeration and building HVAC are presented.
