PROJECT
Daikin supplied two R-32 scroll heat pumps to an event company in Spain. The units have been installed to provide chilled water to the Ice Rink during the winter season. The two R-32 heat pumps from the Daikin Bluevolution range are being used to provide the right amount of cooling to an outdoor ice rink, in Madrid.

CHALLENGE & SOLUTIONS
The installation aims to maintain the skating surface in perfect condition and guarantee a great experience for skaters who will be enjoying the ice rink during winter. To do that, the heat pumps provide chilled water at minus 13 °C, and when the season is over, will be switched to heating mode, to defrost the skating surface. To meet sustainability targets, Daikin provided the possibility of defrosting the skating surface using technologies that could be powered by green energy instead of using boilers. The R-32 heat pump by Daikin ended up being a perfect solution, as combines both high-efficiency levels and low environmental impact thanks to the R-32 refrigerant, which helps significantly reduce carbon emissions, also opening the possibility of using reclaimed refrigerant. Reliability, then, was guaranteed by the huge experience Daikin has in R-32 technology development, with an unparalleled number of installations across the world.
