Price TWA has supplied over 150m of their textile duct system to provide fresh air to cool both ice rinks at Ice Arena Wales. As part of the £200 m Cardiff International Sports Village development, the Ice Arena Wales has been created to accommodate a public ice rink and provide a home venue for the ice hockey team “the Cardiff Devils”.
The venue is used to host a number of events including boxing, discos and curling a well as ice hockey matches and skating. A ventilation and cooling system was needed to supply the building that has a varied occupancy of over 3,000 people.
The duct airflow has adjustable settings with jet nozzles that offer a large throw area ensuring conditions can adapt to occupancy.
