Tips for Building Your DIY Ice Rink
Find the Right Spot
There are four things you should look for when choosing a spot for your backyard ice rink.
- Flat space
- Not over the septic or drain field
- Adequate lighting (or the ability to light it)
- Reachable by hose or near a water source.
Bigger is Better!
If you have the space for it, a larger rink creates a lot more space for free skating and the classic pick up hockey game!
Check for Slants and Slopes
Knowing where your water line will be is super important! Make sure to back fill if necessary for a smooth, level rink.
