Ice rink design, construction and dasherboards
One partner for the whole rink.
Everything Ice designs, builds and outfits permanent and portable ice rinks. Floors, refrigeration, dehumidification and dasherboards come from one shop in Pennsylvania, so your project has one team to call from the first drawing to opening night.

What we build
From a town square to an Olympic sheet.
Permanent arenas, seasonal rinks that pay for themselves in two winters, professional dasherboards and the mechanical systems that keep ice hard. We build all of it, and we build it to work together.
Permanent and portable rinks
Three proprietary floor piping systems, Frost Shield sub-soil heating, and Instant Ice portable mats that install in a day.
Titan, Rec and Custom series
Steel-angle boards for pro hockey, galvanized tube boards for multi-sport rinks, and polished-aluminum systems for signature outdoor spaces.
Refrigeration and dehumidification
Chillers sized to your climate and schedule, measured in tons per kilowatt, paired with mechanical or desiccant humidity control.
Why Everything Ice
Fewer vendors. Fewer surprises.
Ice rinks fail at the seams between trades: the floor, the refrigeration, the building envelope, the boards. When one company owns the floor piping and the chiller and the dasherboards, the seams disappear and the schedule holds.
- End-to-end scope. Planning, floor, refrigeration, dehumidification, boards and installation from one contract.
- Proven in every climate. Installations from Lake Placid to Saudi Arabia, indoor and outdoor, concrete and sand.
- Our own products. Patented push-button gate latches, Frost Shield sub-soil heating, Fusion Ice welded poly piping and more.
- Engineers who talk to your architect. We work inside your design team, not around it, so permitting and construction go faster.
How it works
Concept to completion, in three moves.
The animation above is the real order of operations. Here is what happens around it.
Plan
Floor plan, mechanical and resurfacer rooms, utilities, budget and schedule, worked out with your architect and engineer before anything is poured.
Build
Sub-soil heating, insulation, piping, slab, refrigeration, dehumidification and dasherboards installed by our crews, on one schedule.
Operate
Ice-making, maintenance practices, staffing plans and training, with our operations team available long after the ribbon is cut.
Client results
What operators say after opening day.
As a volunteer-run organization building North Carolina’s first curling facility, we relied heavily on Everything Ice, and they delivered. From hands-on support to competitive pricing, their team was invaluable.
Our partnership with Everything Ice has been outstanding. Their team is responsive, reliable and highly professional. The onsite manager integrated seamlessly with our staff, and the Armory has become a thriving community asset thanks to their expertise and dedication.
The minute Everything Ice came on site, we all breathed a sigh of relief. Their work ethic and leadership brought great confidence to our team.
Thanks to Everything Ice’s energy-efficient design, we now skate year-round with over 500,000 kWh in annual savings. The arena is one of the most energy-efficient in the nation.

Sub-slab heating, drainage and soil prep in ice rink design
The part of the rink you cannot fix later. Why frost heave happens, what a sub-soil heating system does, and how grading and drainage decide the life of the floor.
Seven ice rink design mistakes that drive up energy costs
Vapor barriers, ceilings, lighting, humidity and refrigeration sizing: the design decisions that quietly add thousands of dollars to a rink’s monthly utility bill.
