5.6 Controls for the Water
There must always be enough wash water available to be vacuumed up. The pump must not
be allowed to run dry, because the impeller and shaft seal assembly is water-lubricated.
5.6.1 Wash Water
The wash water is sprayed directly out of the water tank onto the ice by a spray pipe on the
back inside wall of the conditioner. When the wash water system is started, cold water is
distributed in the conditioner over the whole width of the conditioner, creating slush. The
squeegee then forces the slush into the skate cuts on the ice. Any excess water and debris is
vacuumed back into the wash water tank.
5.6.2 Ice Making Water
The flow of flood water is controlled by the ball valve at the base of the conditioner (Manual
Water Valve). For the best resurfacing results, the ice making water should have a temperature
NO HIGHER than local codes will allow. The hot water melts some of the surface of the ice, thus
achieving the best possible bond with the existing ice. Hot water also holds less oxygen than cold
water and therefore produces a denser, harder ice.
Harder ice does not get damaged as easily and therefore needs less depth of cut to achieve a
smooth surface. Which in turn, results in minimal ice build-up.
This means less time spent on ice maintenance and less wear and tear on the resurfacing
equipment.
