Time Lapse: Pioneer Park (Alaskaland) Ice Rink Resurfacing

Описание: The Alaska Ice Dragon is a portable, propane-fired ice rink resurfacer. This is the Pioneer Park (Alaskaland) outdoor rink in Fairbanks, AK. It had a small amount of damage, so this was similar to the time it would take for a routine maintenance job. The time it took to resurface it was 30 minutes.

The Ice Dragon is great for resurfacing home, school or community rinks.

Facts about the Ice Dragon:
The resurfacer burns propane to melt a thin layer of the rink surface. The water flows into cracks and scrapes in the ice, then refreezes into a smooth surface
1 gallon of propane will melt 76 gallons of ice
It's lightweight, compact, and easily transported in a car or truck
It's maintenance-free and simple to use
It resurfaces over 10,000 ft^2 (930 m^2) per hour unless the rink has major damage
The resurfacer functions down to -25°F (-30°C)
It burns 2 gallons (7.5 liters) of propane per hour
It's scalable to arbitrary widths
It's immune to freezing temperatures (no water valves or hoses) and can be stored outside
It's perfect for ponds and lakes with weight limitations
It avoids ice thickening on indoor rinks and does not affect rink flatness
