Snow Melt Systems – Did you know

A study published in the American Journal of Emergency Medicine found there are, on average, more than 11,500 snow shovel-related injuries and medical emergencies every year. Installing a snow and ice melt (SIM) system can eliminate the need to shovel snow and ice and prevent personal injury. SIM systems are incredibly versatile and can be installed as a stand-alone system or fully integrated as a small sub-assembly into the hydronic space heating system in a home. Like indoor radiant heated floors, snow and ice melt systems are a proven technology with wide adoption in commercial and industrial applications such as emergency room entrances, helicopter pads, toll plazas, and ski resorts. Common residential applications include, driveways, parking areas, sidewalks, porches, and wheel chair ramps. 

Snow and ice melt systems are concealed beneath the walking or driving surface. The system automatically activates in response to both a temperature drop and presence of moisture, delivering service only when conditions necessitate. This makes a SIM system exceptionally efficient.

Key Benefits of Snow and Ice Melt Systems

• Provides a safer walking surface reducing the likelihood of injuries from slips and falls, particularly for the elderly
• Protects occupants and loved ones from winter injuries from shoveling, or aggravating a medical condition
• Provides essential workers and emergency responders, ability to get to work under any winter conditions
• Automatic and unattended snow and ice melt removal eliminates cost of hiring a plow or manual labor
• Protects concrete from premature failure caused by cracking or spalling due to freeze thaw cycles
• Enhanced convenience of automatic melting, no delays or waiting after a storm to dig out
• Reduction in liability and insurance claims from accidents or injuries
• Maximizes parking and walking space by not creating snow banks and piles
• Protects architecture or stamped concrete from damage caused by plows
• Prevents landscape poisoning caused by salt or chemical use
• Hidden components and system preserve surface aesthetics, no one knows it is there
• No messy spring cleanup from sand or salt
• Minimizes vehicular accidents by safely and automatically removing ice
