Oversized aluminum rails run the full length of both sides. The puck stays on the table at full speed.
Overview
The Great American Recreation Face Off Power Hockey is a commercial air hockey table available in 7-foot (model 7PH) and 8-foot (model 8HF) configurations, built for continuous play in arcades, family entertainment centers, hotel game rooms, and other high-traffic venues. The cabinet is constructed from 3/4-inch cabinet-grade plywood with ABS injected legs and an industrial-rated blower that delivers fast, consistent puck speed across a Formica playing surface. This non-coin version operates in free-play mode — the blower activates on power-up with no coin mechanism to configure.
Key Features
Industrial-Rated Blower for Full-Surface Airflow
The industrial-rated blower forces air through the playfield's perforated surface, creating a uniform cushion that keeps the puck suspended and moving at speed from end to end. Consistent airflow across the full table prevents slow zones at the corners or midfield.
Oversized Aluminum Side Rails
Aluminum rails run the full length of both sides of the table, sized larger than standard rails to contain the puck at high speed. The rail height keeps fast bank shots in play rather than launching the puck off the surface.
3/4-Inch Cabinet-Grade Plywood Construction
The cabinet walls are built from 3/4-inch cabinet-grade plywood — thicker than standard consumer-grade tables — which resists racking and flex under the stress of competitive play and repeated lateral impact from players leaning against the rails. Custom cabinet color options are available.
Premium Formica Playfield with Professional Markings
The playing surface uses a Formica laminate finish printed with a centerline, goalie box, and bold graphics. The low-friction surface pairs with the air cushion to maintain consistent puck glide, and the high-contrast markings keep the play zones visually distinct during fast exchanges.
Internal Puck Drop with Tool-Free Service Panels
The internal puck drop system routes scored pucks back to the players automatically. Hinged access panels on the cabinet open without tools, allowing puck retrieval and internal service without disassembly. A bottom-hinged door also provides leg storage access during shipping and setup.
Optional Side-Mounted Electronic Scoring
An optional side-mounted electronic scoring unit with extra-bright, oversized digital displays is available as an upgrade. The displays mount to the side of the cabinet where both players and bystanders can read the score without leaning over the table surface.
How It Plays
Each player grips a striker and drives the puck toward the opposing wide-mouth goal while defending their own — the wide goal openings compared to standard tables mean shots that catch the corner of the goal still score, which keeps rallies short and play intensity high. Scored pucks return through the internal drop system so play resumes quickly. From across a room, the fast puck movement across the Formica surface is visible at distance, and on units with the optional electronic scoring, the side-mounted displays update the score for both players and any bystanders watching from the side.

Why Buyers Love It
Plug-and-Play Setup
The non-coin format means there is no payment hardware to configure. Connect the power cable to a standard 110V outlet, adjust the leg levelers, and the table is ready for play — no programming or coin door setup required.
ABS Legs with Adjustable Levelers
The ABS injected legs include adjustable levelers at each foot, allowing the table to be set level on uneven flooring. A level table is essential for even airflow and consistent puck behavior — particularly useful in basement game rooms, garages, and older venue floors where surface irregularities are common.
Two Size Options for Different Room Footprints
The 7-foot model (87 in long) fits rooms where the full 8-foot table (99 in long) would leave insufficient clearance for players on each end. Both models share the same construction spec and blower rating, so the size choice is driven by room dimensions rather than any performance trade-off.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Face Off Power Hockey require a coin to play?
No. This version ships without a coin mechanism and operates in free-play mode. The blower activates when the table is powered on, and play begins immediately without any payment input.
What scoring options are available on the Face Off Power Hockey?
The table is available in a manual scoring configuration or with an optional side-mounted electronic scoring unit. The electronic option uses extra-bright, oversized digital displays mounted to the side of the cabinet, readable by both players and bystanders without leaning over the surface.
How is the Face Off Power Hockey serviced?
The cabinet includes hinged access panels that open without tools, providing access to the internal puck drop system and other components. A bottom-hinged door at the base of the cabinet also opens for leg storage access during shipping and setup.
What size venue is the Face Off Power Hockey built for?
Both models are built to commercial construction standards and sized for venue placement. The 8-foot model at 99 inches long suits larger arcade and FEC floors, while the 7-foot model at 87 inches fits tighter installations such as hotel game rooms or smaller break room setups.
Ideal Placement
The Face Off Power Hockey in non-coin configuration fits venues that operate on free-play or attended-access formats: hotel game rooms, resort recreation areas, university student lounges, corporate break rooms, and private clubs. Family entertainment centers and bowling center arcades that prefer a free-play table alongside coin-op equipment are also a natural fit. The 7-foot model's 87-inch length suits tighter floor plans where the full 8-foot footprint would leave inadequate player clearance at each end.
