VRAs for

Ice Resurfacers

Natural gas ice resurfacers are gaining popularity among public arenas. More than 350 arenas have switched to natural gas powered ice resurfacers. The main reason for this is Indoor Air Quality.

You can improve the air quality at your facility by virtually eliminating the possibility of carbon monoxide poisoning. With natural gas powered ice resurfacers, emissions are reduced by up to 90%. And with an octane rating of 130, natural gas burns more completely than other fuels.

Each FuelMaker is a complete compression system. It runs on a single phase electric supply. The gas comes from the same natural gas supply already feeding your heating system. Since natural gas cylinders are permanently mounted on your ice resurfacer, there is no more lifting or changing of heavy propane cylinders which can lead to back injuries. And, there is no need to order stock or store cylinders. Simply refuel anytime.

FuelMaker’s “appliance” rating translates into a number of benefits to the end user. The units have been specifically engineered with patented design and performance features making them safe, reliable, simple to operate, and easy to maintain. The unique VRA classification also helps to keep installation costs to a minimum. Purchase your FuelMaker refueling system outright or take advantage of our attractive leasing programs.

The foundation of the FuelMaker product line is the VRA (Vehicle Refueling Appliance). FuelMaker VRAs are available in a number of models with a variety of flow rates and discharge pressures to satisfy your refueling needs. Any number of individual units can be combined to match the customer’s specific refueling requirements and can be configured to accommodate time-fill and fast-fill applications, or a combination of both. Indoor refueling is even available for commercial applications.
