The REALice device forces the water to create an ordered Vortex movement inside the unit to separate the air bubbles from the water and crystalizes the lime particles. These changes created inside the REALice unit eliminates the need to use hot water to build or resurface the ice.

The thickness of the ice is one of the things that determines how much energy is consumed maintaining the ice.
Conditions to maintain the ice vary from rink to rink. Laying, taking care of, and maintaining ice is not the same thing in an “event arena” as it is in an “ice barn”.
Ice quality can be affected by many parameters. If you want good quality ice, you should not expose it to large temperature differences.
A high level of humidity provides a rugged surface with a lot of snow production when in contact with the sharp blades of a skate.
Ice temperature is the one parameter that has the most impact on your energy consumption.
