ABSTRACT:
A snow-making machine which includes a tunnel-like housing, a fan to create an airstream, and nozzles for the formation of ice nuclei and water droplets. The fan is secured within the housing upstream of the nozzles. An inlet screen is secured to the housing upstream of the fan. The screen is heated to prevent the accumulation of ice on the screen. A shield is placed upstream of the fan to prevent the flow of air across the portion of the fan where ice would adhere to the fan.
