Specialized Refrigeration for Ice Rinks & Food Processing

Industrial refrigeration is a core part of what Northland does. We work with arena operators and food processing facilities to maintain safe, reliable refrigeration systems and plan repairs or upgrades around production schedules, ice seasons and capital budgets.

Refrigeration systems are among the most technically demanding mechanical systems in any facility. Northland has the experience to understand the complete refrigeration system — including the primary refrigerant circuit, secondary cooling loop, heat-rejection equipment, pumps, controls, and connected mechanical equipment.

We work with arena operators, food-processing facilities, ice manufacturers and industrial clients on everything from routine maintenance and seasonal startups to repairs, upgrades and complete plant modernization.

Our capabilities include refrigeration, chilled-water and process-cooling systems for a wide range of specialized applications.

GAS DETECTION

Gas Detection System Installation and Calibration

Northland installs, services and calibrates fixed gas detection systems for refrigeration plants and other mechanical spaces. Properly maintained detection equipment provides early warning of refrigerant leaks, supports safe facility operation and helps ensure alarms and ventilation controls respond as intended.

  • New gas detection system installation
  • Replacement and upgrading of existing detectors
  • Ammonia, carbon dioxide and refrigerant leak detection
  • Sensor calibration and functional testing
  • Alarm, horn, strobe and ventilation interlock testing
  • Controller and monitoring system integration
  • Scheduled inspection and calibration programs
  • Calibration records and service documentation
