Managing Humidity in a NCAA Ice Rink

 

Indoor ice rinks, crucial for sports and recreation, often face challenges managing humidity, leading to condensation and fog. These issues arise from factors like spectator presence, inadequate ventilation, and temperature variations, impacting playability and revenue. A case study at a NCAA Division 1 rink in Massachusetts highlighted how failing air handlers jeopardized operations just as the hockey season began. Facing potential financial losses exceeding $100,000, a solution was urgently needed.

Polygon stepped in with a temporary humidity control system equipped with real-time sensors and automation. This setup swiftly regulated humidity levels, averting game cancellations and ensuring continuous operations. The integration of ExactAire Smart Controllers and IAQ Sensors enabled precise monitoring and proactive management of conditions, crucial for maintaining optimal ice quality and venue profitability.

By swiftly addressing the humidity issue and facilitating equipment replacement, Polygon’s solution not only ensured uninterrupted events but also minimized financial risks associated with operational disruptions, demonstrating the effectiveness of proactive humidity management in indoor sports facilities.
