Snow Making

Easily Deliver Water to Make Snow Where You Need It

Hoses from Sterling can be used throughout the snowmaking process. We offer a variety of hoses in wide range of diameters and pressure ratings to meet your needs for snow making capacity. Our team would be glad to assist with any of your snowmaking needs and here are some of the ways in which we can help.

Water Delivery for Snow Making

Snow making hoses are used to deliver water from a source (like a lake, pond, or water tank) to the snowmaking machine or nozzle. This water is then atomized into fine droplets that freeze as they are blown into the cold air, creating artificial snow. Here are some of the benefits of using a flexible and durable hose solution for snow making.

Flexibility and Reach

Hoses allow for flexibility in positioning snow guns or nozzles across large areas. They can be extended, moved, and directed where snow is needed most, whether it’s on ski slopes or in smaller areas.

Pressure Control

Hoses used in snowmaking are designed to handle high water pressure, which is necessary for the efficient production of snow. The pressure forces the water through the snow gun or nozzle, where it is mixed with compressed air, helping to atomize the water droplets.

Durability

Snowmaking hoses are typically made from durable materials that can withstand harsh winter conditions, including freezing temperatures and rough terrain. This ensures that they can be used season after season without significant wear or damage.

Temperature Control

Some snowmaking systems use heated hoses to prevent the water inside from freezing before it reaches the nozzle. This is especially important in extremely cold conditions, ensuring a consistent flow of water for snow production.

Ease of Setup

Hoses make it easier to set up temporary snowmaking systems in various locations.This is particularly useful in smaller ski resorts, outdoor events, or for private use where permanent infrastructure might not be available.

In essence, Sterling hoses are a critical component in the snowmaking process, allowing for the controlled and efficient production of snow in areas where natural snow may be insufficient.
