These "Big Boys" will tell me not to go desiccant as the argument of "over cooling" versus absorbtion goes on. This...
I believe several recommended standards for hockey rinks is about 55 degrees at 50% RH (about a 37 degree dew point - very difficult to achieve off a cooling coil without freezing). The owner wants to have the ability to get down to 40% RH (about a 32 degree dew point - definitely not going to...
Ventilation Rates for an Ice Rink are 0.5 cfm/SF of ice area. As the facility that we are working on is ice rink only and no seating or bleahers - this is a huge ventilation rate for the size of the structure - about 8,000 cfm of OA. This requirement must be due to the gas powered ice...
