EnerShield A newer and better design of low emissivity ceiling: · SAVEs MONEY $$ · HARDENs and PROTECTs ICE · INCREASEs REFRIGERATION EFFICIENCY · LOWERs CONDENSATION · BOOSTs LIGHTING · IMPROVEs AESTHETICS · LESS DRIPPING · BETTER ACCOUSTICS Low emissivity ceilings are the proven #1 energy saving measure in ice rinks. While installed in nearly 2000 rinks world wide, they continue to save energy and MONEY. In fact, a typical low emissivity ceiling will save a single ice sheet about $12,000 per year in energy costs (based on $0.065/kWh). In warmer, southern climates the savings are even greater - approximately $15,000-$24,000 (depending on rates and site specific details). Our experienced engineers will assist you in selecting one of 6 different low emissivity ceiling materials - all with the same efficiency and energy saving properties. We will custom design the installation to suit your rink, and ensure it will look great and save energy for a long time. We also offer a site specific energy analysis to better determine the energy savings that can be expected in your rink. In addition to the high energy savings, EnerShield low emissivity ceiling will improve other areas of your rink. By gently warming the inside ceiling of an ice rink, it will reduce ceiling condensation and help dry out and eliminate any existing damp conditions. Its high reflectivity will improve brightness and increase lighting levels at the ice surface. By reducing the radiant heat load on the ice. It will make your ice sheet harder and more consistent, even in warm weather. To cover unsightly, paint chipped beams, or to protect the ice from falling condensation or debris, EnerShield Low Emissivity Ceilings will enhance any rink.
