A replacement for the Michipicoten Memorial Community Centre's condenser is on the way, after a leak in the unit.
Community Services and Tourism Director Alex Patterson explains there was a leak in the unit, which uses ammonia to cool the ice.
Because of that, Patterson notes the replacement will need to be installed quickly after it is received, which would have a temporary effect on operations.
Patterson assures the leak didn't become too much of a problem.
Patterson adds operations within the arena are continuing as normal, though staff are making additional checks on the unit until the replacement's installed.
