Does anyone have any experience meting a temporary outdoor ice rink using radiant heat. Specifically, hooking into the mats underneath the ice that are circulating propylene glycol with a heater to heat the glycol and melt the ice?

    Its done all the time. Slowly warm the glycol to 35 - 40°F with the pumps running.
