Why Not Apply a Snow Melting System to a Sidewalk?Typically, when we think about radiant snow melting systems we associate them with heated driveways. But snowmelt systems aren't just for heated driveways. Why not apply the same smart technology for heated sidewalks, steps and public walkways?
Snow melting systems are relatively affordable and save you in the long run when it comes to snow removal cost and headaches. The fully automated snowmelt systems are simple to maintain because they require no human intervention. They do however come with a manual override should you ever need to adjust or tweak your snowmelt system, such as in cases of snow drifts. Radiant snowmelt systems utilize radiant heat in the concrete or asphalt to help keep walks clear of snow and ice. This makes walking much safer for pedestrians in cold climates. Each snow melting system can be customized to meet your specific project needs and can be installed in uniquely shaped areas as well. Using a snow melting system anywhere there are pedestrians present is a sure way to keep everyone safe and dry. |

An Easy-To-Program Snow Melt System Makes Life Simple If you think
installing a snow melting systems sounds complicated, think
again. Radiant driveway heating is easier than ever to
achieve. Not only are the heated driveways more
affordable than ever, but snow melting systems can be
installed at any stage of construction. Already in your
home with a lovely driveway leading to your garage? No
problem, a snow melting system can easily be
retrofitted in to existing driveways as well.

Install a Radiant Heat System in Your Driveway or Sidewalks and Avoid Messy Personal Injury Lawsuits. In my past days
as a legal assistant, I learned a thing or two about slip
and fall cases, the most prominent in my mind being thus:
avoid them at all costs. Every year, thousands
of Americans file for lawsuits involving slipping on ice on
either residential or commercial property, and let me
tell you—personal injury suits are NOT
pretty. Business or homeowners are responsible for anything dangerous that happens in or around their property, including slipping on black ice, slush, or melting snow. Those of us in cold climates know that these things are a way of life, and it might seem difficult—if not impossible—to fully eradicate these nuisances from our property. Well, I’m here to tell you that it is possible with a simple solution: radiant heat. Radiant heated driveways and sidewalks are the number one way to make sure you stay safe and litigation-free this winter. Heated concrete systems are fully-automated little wonders that activate themselves at the slightest hint of a snowstorm, resulting in effortlessly snow- and ice-free driveways and sidewalks. A lawsuit doesn’t even have a chance of happening with these puppies around. They say that the best defense you have against ice slip and fall cases is to make sure they never occur. In the traditional sense, this would involve you getting up close and personal with a shovel every backbreaking morning of your life. However, thanks to heated driveways and sidewalks, being prepared is as easy as, well, watching the snow melt from the warmth of your home or office. Besides saving you thousands in litigation costs, radiant heating systems also save you thousands on operating costs as well as money wasted on shovels and ice melter. What’s more, radiant heated driveways are fast and efficient, obliterating snow and ice in half the time of other snowmelt systems out there. So, get proactive and make sure lawsuits never happen—install a radiant heated driveway or sidewalk before anyone has a chance to even think about slapping you with a subpoena. |
Keeping Customers Happy Each Season is Simple Keeping your
customers happy is usually in the top five priorities (and
if you are smart, it’s most likely number one) when
running a business. Without them your business is
sunk. If you operate your business in a harsh winter
climate and customers have a need to visit your location
regularly, installing heated driveways and walk-ways
is a sure fire way to keep them coming back for more. Businesses like
banks, fast food restaurants or car washes all have
drive-through areas or driving bays that would benefit from
a radiant snowmelt system. Installing a heated
driveway system reduces the manual labor required to
keep precious business arteries open and clear for
customers. Snowmelt systems also cut down on the need for
salt or other harsh chemicals, which is especially
critical for a car wash. Customers visiting a car wash
in the winter months are looking to rid their vehicle
of those products and would certainly appreciate not picking
up more while patronizing your car wash bays. Using a radiant snowmelt system is not limited to those aforementioned businesses. Snow melting systems are an added benefit to any walkway, as they are easily installed under sidewalks and driveways. Using the technology of electric or radiant heat increases the comfort and safety of your property – and makes you much less vulnerable to potential liability issues. A snow melting system will insure your walkways and driveways are always clear of snow and ice and ready to be used by each and every one of your valuable customers. |
What if NASA Could Install Heated Driveways/Runways? Last week the
space shuttle, Discovery, returned to earth after a 13-day
mission. Following a few minor weather delays, the cloudy
skies in Cape Canaveral, Florida, finally allowed the
Discovery crew to touch down at the Kennedy Space
Center. The amazing ability to travel through space got
me thinking how thrilling it would be to see a space shuttle
lift off with all its turbo boosters spewing thick
clouds of smoke. Sadly, I do not dwell in any state
near Florida, so my chances are slim of this becoming
a reality, unless I travel across the country. It made me
start to wonder; “What if NASA could install a
snow melting system on runways and launch
pads across the country?” Think about the
joy and marvel youngsters would experience if their home
state was able to host a shuttle landing. Even winter-locked
states could theoretically brag about the upcoming
landing of the future shuttle, North Pole. Electric
radiant heat systems used to heat our driveways to
keep them clear of snow seems like a great solution for a
NASA approved shuttle landings. Admittedly, my imagination may be getting the best of me. Weather is just one of the millions of considerations, I’m quite sure, when launching a rocket into space. But for today, it is fun to imagine a giant heated “driveway” at a NASA facility somewhere near the Rocky Mountains, housing the next shuttle ready to fly and ready to land on the world's largest snow melting system. Hey, if we can put a man on the moon, who’s to say that one day my dream of witnessing a launch from my cold climate can’t come true. Technology brought us space travel and it brought us electric radiant heat. Maybe one day they will unite somewhere other than in my overactive imagination. |
Deals are there for the taking, so
take advantage and install a heated driveway this
spring to ready yourself for next year’s inevitable
snow fall.
Driving around those neighborhoods was an
eye opener about just how crucial heated driveway
systems are for those living in elevated areas. As I cruised
around the neighborhoods, I couldn’t help but
feel sorry for the people attempting to shovel
mountains of snow off their driveways. Watching their feeble
attempts and then looking at the next-door neighbor’s
That’s right. As soon as I started
making the list I realized that my

could be easier than getting up in the morning and
seeing a clear driveway on a snowy day. With radiant
heat
When
city planners begin work on a public park or
architects design a new business complex, pedestrian
safety is paramount. In cold climate areas, using a radiant
snowmelt system in steps and walkways would be a
significant perk to any existing or new project where
pedestrian traffic is being taken into account. Having
walks clear of snow at all times can increase traffic as
well as safety.
The
major perk is that using a Warmzone snowmelt system,
is that once it is installed you can program the fully
automated activation device, which uses a smart snow sensor.
The snow sensor is designed to activate only when needed by
registering temperature and precipitation levels and
turning on only when the levels are appropriate for
use. This results in a streamlined, highly efficient
heated driveway system. Your heated driveway works only when
there is enough snow to warrant use, so you save
operation costs while enjoying the value added
benefits it provides to your property.
