Varied temperatures and uneven air distribution can ruin the fun for spectators and skaters. However, the right combination of fabrics and flow models creates perfect indoor air quality complemented with an aesthetic discreet duct profile that maintains a perfect ice surface.
Distributes air evenly throughout the facility
Antimicrobial fabrics eliminate health risks, and ducts are easily washable
Fabric does not rust, thus eliminating the risk of corrosion
A variety of duct profiles and standard colors and custom printing compliment any setting
Ducts are flexible and can maintain their shape even after accidental bumps
Creating a comfortable environment for ice enthusiasts while ensuring the overall health of the structure are the ideal combination for your ice rink. Check out the best duct and related components below for more information on how to keep skaters comfortably gliding.
Duct system is custom engineered to create the ideal fit for each application’s specific requirements. Through years of extensive research and work, we have gathered enormous experience. Below, find our suggestions for perfect air distribution in your facility.

The HVAC system has to serve two very different environments: a cold ice surface and occupied spectator areas. Uneven temperature or air movement can affect ice conditions and occupant comfort, so airflow direction, velocity, humidity, and temperature need to be carefully controlled.

The project used two separate fabric air distribution systems: one delivered dry, cooled air toward the ice while another directed warmer air toward spectators. The installation distributed 124,000 m³/h at very low velocities to support both ice conditions and spectator comfort.

Temporary or retrofit installations often have to work within the load limits and geometry of an existing structure. Lightweight fabric ducts place less additional load on the building and can also be easier to install and remove than heavier rigid systems.

The airflow pattern can use different directional flow models and supply-air temperatures for separate zones. This allows the system to direct colder air toward the ice while maintaining more comfortable conditions in spectator areas.
