burton71 Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 A shovel and pickup truck. They cut the ice many times a day and dump the zamboni usually every 3-4 cuts. Once the weather starts cooling off the piles start to stay around longer. Although a bunch of rinks dump their ice inside so they can filter and reuse some of the water.

Justo8484 Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 body zone? they dump theirs in a pile right as you come into the driveway might be that. we got snow from there i think like 3 years ago now, and they were melting it all then, but were happy to let us have it.

method9455 Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Our local rink melts theirs too, I really don't why they would go through the expense of doing that when they can just dump it outside. Never bothered to ask about it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never bothered to ask about it though. It's against EPA regulations to dump ice outside. Edited November 12, 2008 by poconoceancity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
