Eco Chill
ECO CHILL® is an industry‑leading solution for ice rinks that takes you one‑step closer to a greener future while ensuring the best quality ice and user satisfaction.
Eco Chill allows you to re‑purpose up to 100% of the energy removed from your ice sheet during operation and apply that energy to wherever you need heat within the building. By utilizing heat recovery from the refrigeration system, it decreases your arena’s energy consumption and lowers greenhouse gas emissions.
Moreover, Eco Chill is factory assembled with both a plate and frame chiller and condenser, offering the benefit of reduced refrigerant charge and a lower risk of leaks.
Its modular nature allows the designer to choose components that best match the needs of your facility—whether a new design or a retrofit.
If you are committed to a brighter future, it is time to move toward net neutrality and see what Eco Chill can do for your ice rink.
