Hopefully that doesn't become an issue.

Ice quality is by no means great at the Dome. However, I think the ice plant was replaced after being flooded in 2013.

"All electrical, once it gets wet, has to go. The mechanical equipment, anything rotational, the pumps, or compressors, couldn't be salvaged, so it had to go. We took a step backward a few times when we realized the water got in over top of the block walls and into the hollow cores. With all the silt, it could become mouldy in the future, so we had to open up all that and clean all that out. A lot of it had piping in it, with insulation on it, so that holds the water so we had to get rid of that.
