Murphy Company was contracted to complete an office renovation, ice rink installation, and emergency ventilation system for the Meramec Sharks.
The project consisted of converting an existing, non-insulated, tilt-up warehouse to a year-round ice arena. Our innovative design/build team helped establish the building envelope conditions for the roof, wall, and glass.
Designed an air distribution system to provide even airflow without disturbing the area directly above the ice. This system was coordinated to match team colors.
Researched and purchased a refurbished dehumidification system to maintain NHL conditions for the youth hockey club. This included a 96-degree dry bulb, and a 78-degree wet bulb, with a distribution duct. Utilizing refurbished equipment provided significant project savings while maintaining good energy costs.
Designed and installed HVAC system for ancillary areas including concession area, locker rooms, and offices.
