Design and construction of ice sports facilities

PRIMEHOLOD, LLC is an engineering product company specialized in design, installation and maintenance of refrigeration equipment and engineering systems.

Major business areas of the company include:

-construction, delivery and assembly of refrigerating and additional equipment for creating artificial ice arenas for hockey, figure-skating, speed skating, short track and curling, as well as mobile ice arenas;
-building and reconstruction of refrigeration units for food industry enterprises;
-reconstruction of technologic refrigeration units for a special cycle of production enterprises of Federal Nuclear Power Engineering Agency;
-design and assembly of engineering systems for residence industrious and public buildings and constructions (ventilation, conditioning, heating, water supply);
-warranty and post-warranty maintenance.

Ice rink design is rather complicated and responsible task. However, it is rather easily managed by the professionals specialized in this area, like our specialists. We always can offer you a project suitable for the peculiarities in climatic conditions and ice rink operation. We use only time-proven equipment. That is why we can surely guarantee proper performance of an artificial ice rink during the entire operating life.

Currently we offer two major variants of artificial ice rink projects. If the rink is located in the covered accommodation on continuous basis, it is recommended to use stationary ice arena. Its foundation includes a concrete bay where cooling pipes are installed. Such systems are used in ice palaces worldwide. If the rink is planned to be used on the open air with frequent dismantling, it is recommended to use the system of so called ice mats and flexible plastic tubes that allow preparing the field for freezing literally in a few hours. If frequent dismantling is required, a more durable tube system from Rehau is applied.


The cost sheet for design and construction of ice rink directly depends on the ice arena size. The size of a standard ice rink (this type is used on hockey ice arenas) is 1800 square meters. However, it is not always economically feasible to build a full-size rink. Our specialists will help to define the most suitable rink size in each individual case.

An ice rink is a system of collectors and tubal mats. The current system is connected to the refrigeration unit with a unitized pumping group by flexible sleeves. The size of ice arena is limited by tubal mats and collector system. That is why the size of one side should not exceed 50 meters, while another side can be up to 100 meters.

In order to provide the stable operation of a rink with artificial ice, the refrigeration complex must provide refrigerating capacity in freezing-out mode, according to the requirements of DIN 18036 international standard and national regulations (addition to SNiP 2.08.02-89 "Design specifications for sports halls and covered rinks with artificial ice”): 175kW for 15x30 arenas, 250-350 kW for 40x20 arenas, 320-480 kW for 26x56 arenas. Specific figures can be calculated during the design process. That is why we give approximate figures relying on the experience with already operating objects.

The energy supply by all arena systems:
1. Refrigerator equipment 120 – 220 kW.
2. Lighting and background music 3 – 15 kW.
3. Devices for drying and sharpening skates – 5 kW.
An approximate operative refrigerating capacity of the complex, required for the compensation of heat income into the cooling system of covered ice rinks is 0.4 from design capacity.
An approximate price:
- 15х30 fields - up to 180,000 EUR;
- 40х20 fields - up to 220,000 EUR;
- 30х60 fields - up to 350,000 EUR;


The set of equipment includes a refrigerating aggregate, heat-exchange unit of the rink arena, hockey border. Usually it is collected according to the project solution and customer preferences.

When ordering the construction of ice arenas in PRIMEHOLOD, you get high-quality design and long-term operation, as well as further qualified maintenance:

-control of refrigerating equipment work (adjusting temperature modes depending on weather conditions - temperature, air humidity, wind, etc.)
-ice mats repair (tubal system repair): elimination of coolant leakage, adding ice mats, replacement of broken ice-mat parts, pipe header repair;
-operation, maintenance and repair of specialized machinery: ice resurfacer, lorries with detachable equipment, ice edgers, rotors, etc.
