RINK RANGERS by Mike Curti Save Money with the De-OX Ice-Making System , It's been the buzzword in the energy departments of numerous arenas this summer: "De-OX," an ice-making system that delivers on significantly lowering a rink's energy consumption. Creating superior ice quality, reducing the use of hot water and significantly lowering your facility's utility costs, the De-OX System by Ice Force has become a popular addition in many arenas across North America. How does it work? The De-OX System removes all the dissolved oxygen from your ice-making water, creating ice that freezes faster and clearer. During ice building and resurfacing, the De-OX system can use ground-temperature water and avoid the heat load from hot-water practices. For facility operators and managers, this directly translates into faster ice builds and incredible cost savings. As the exclusive North-American distributor for the De-OX System, arena ice equipment provider Ice Force makes arenas clean, safe, energy-efficient and environmentally friendly.
