Heard interesting comment on podcast with KD1
Talking about winter practices in the unheated indoor practice field. Its tough and KD1 mentioned that Pry is working to get a project to heat the building. I know that might be a slight comment, but its a good idea.

My HVAC tech wheels are spinning. Is there HHW or steam nearby that they could pipe in? Or they go Geo thermal, but not sure if that juice would be worth the squeeze. That leaves gas/oil or electric heat. What exactly are they heating though, that entire build, or just the surface area of the field? I'm guessing all they have in place are exhaust fans for ventilation. On the flip side, can kids today get any softer.

Entire space is my understanding not just the field

That would be a fun rumor to start, just to watch heads explode.

that was my thought as well lol
We will see.... Its' a tough project, what type of conditioning (heating, a/c?) then ducting, and since its such a huge space, where will the 'plant'/chillers go?) ... If its approved, hope it goes faster than the locker room/ enhancements
