A time-tested course, Basic Refrigeration has been delivered to recreation facility personnel for over four decades and has become an industry-recognized minimum competency for practitioners working in a recreation-related refrigeration plant.

Participants will learn the fundamentals of the theory and principles of refrigeration and the importance this plays in the creation of a quality ice surface. While not mandatory, participants are encouraged to gain some knowledge of a working refrigeration system prior to attendance. It is recommended that prior to attending this course participants ask their refrigeration plant operator, or other qualified facility individual, for a guided tour and orientation of the refrigeration plant. This review should explore: key pieces of equipment; safety devices; log book use; responses to emergencies and evacuation plans; types and amounts of refrigerants; storage; and personal protective equipment for all noxious gases and/or refrigerants stored on site.

Topics include:
  • Principles of Refrigeration
  • Refrigeration Equipment Identification & Function
  • Refrigeration Controls, Accessories and Safety Devices
  • Refrigeration System Operation & Maintenance
