What is DRIFT?
DRIFTÔ
is a patented, liquid snowmaking additive formulated from an organo-silicone
surfactant (surface-active-agent.) DRIFT
enhances snowmaking efficiency and snow product quality. It pours and mixes easily with water, does not require
continuous mixing, has no offensive odor and does not require special storage.
When used as directed DRIFT is safe for humans and the environment and
degrades within a few days.
Why use DRIFT?
Several reasons…
- To be able to operate when snowmaking temps are marginal.
At marginal temps you are forced to operate at lower efficiency (more
air, less water) or not at all; and often your groomers need to wait for the
snow to cure before working it. DRIFT
modifies the flow dynamics of snowmaking water so it freezes faster and more
thoroughly. This means you can
operate more efficiently at marginal temperatures and make snow that is
ready to be worked – ready-to-go-snow - much sooner than it would be
without DRIFT.
- To increase your snow quality and operating efficiency at mid-range
temperatures. Even
when temps are decent – you may have to wait for the snow to cure before
working it if you are using other additives or none at all.
Time is money. DRIFT’s
modification of the flow dynamics and freezing of water provides operating
efficiencies and - again – ready-to-go-snow in these medium range
temperatures as well.
- To give your customers the best snow surface you can make –
and make your grooming crew happy too.
DRIFT’s impact on the flow and freezing of snowmaking water results
in a consistent and silky snow product that skiers regularly comment on.
No stickiness, no clumping, no sticking to groomer blades either.
How does DRIFT work?
When
DRIFT is dispersed in snowmaking water at 3-5 parts per million (3 - 5 gals/ltrs
of DRIFT per 1 million gals/ltrs of water), it changes the flow dynamics by
lowering the water’s tensions, causing a “super-spreading” of the water.
