Multijet Ice Wash System
Multijet ice wash system with suction ledge bar available on MAMMOTH, SHIRA, evo²
Required equipment: water pump.
In the Conditioner, located behind the planing blade, is the ice washing system, commonly referred to as wash water, unlike our competitors, who use a gravity-fed water supply with a single-point pickup located at the center of the conditioner. We use Pressurized Nozzles to spray clean water onto the freshly planed ice surface, washing away snow remnants, hair, skin particles, sand, or dust from the ice grooves.
How it works
The spray nozzles apply water evenly under pressure across the entire ice surface inside the conditioner. At the same time, the suction ledge bar removes excess water across the full width of the conditioner, eliminating the risk of water escaping from the sides during operation.
A squeegee lip collects the dirty water at the back of the conditioner, and a suction pump draws it through the suction ledge bar positioned in front of the squeegee rubber lip, transporting the dirty water to the water-tight snow tank for disposal.
For outdoor rinks, in case of rain, the suction pump can be used to remove rainwater from the ice surface through the suction ledge bar. It’s essential to ensure there is a sufficient amount of rainwater to prevent damage to the pump. After removing the water from the skating surface, dump the snow tank as usual. The snow tank capacity is 264 gallons of liquid.
The ice washing system can maintain lightly used ice surfaces without requiring additional water. This enables the ice surface to be used immediately, reducing energy consumption for ice surface cooling.

Your Advantage
Perfectly clean ice is guaranteed. Any damage to the ice is cleared of snow remnants and dirt using water nozzles. The dirty water is suctioned from the ice surface with the suction ledge. Once the ice surface is clean, you can rebuild the ice with the towel or ICEplus. This results in more transparent ice, making advertising inserts more visible. Additionally, the faster bonding process of the new ice layer helps save energy.
