LTS Studio 3D — the design module inside Low Temp Desk — gives ice rink refrigeration contractors a heat load calculation that runs while you draw, using the envelope, the product and the usage you entered. It works in chillers, brine loops, floor headers and dehumidification, so the model already speaks your equipment instead of asking you to draw it line by line.

Yes. Ice rink refrigeration contractors use LTS Studio 3D on chillers, brine loops, floor headers and dehumidification. The module is built so you stop guessing tonnage from the last job that looked similar.
That case is the reason it exists: long plant runs where header layout drives ice quality. BTU/h result shown live next to the model as dimensions change, so the design absorbs the change instead of being redrawn.
No. Studio 3D runs in the browser. You enter refrigeration inputs — dimensions, temperature, product, equipment — and the model, the load and the drawing come out of that. Evaporator capacity and condensing unit size suggested from the result.
Yes. The design lives on the customer and the project, images and takeoffs drop into the estimate, and the approved version stays attached to the work order and the as-built.
