Spectators at Indoor Stadium Feel the Heat

Last modified: November 12, 2009 - 10:21 PM

Spectators at the Indoor Stadium will be more comfortable during the cold months now that two large gas fired heating units have been installed above the grandstand area.

The gas fired tube radiant heating warms people, the floor and surrounds by emitting low intensity radiant heat and the system is efficient to run.

Council set aside funds in the capital works budget and a donation received from the Leeton Hockey Association towards the heating project was of great assistance.

“A lot of research was required to identify the most suitable type of heating for the Indoor Stadium situation,” said Leonie Painter, Council’s Manager Recreation & Community Services.

“The main factors to be considered were efficiency, safe operation and heat emission to benefit the spectators. The system that has been installed meets all of the criteria.”

The Indoor Stadium heating project is one of many upgrades Council is implementing to provide quality sporting facilities that will encourage more people to participate in recreational activities.
