Snowmelt Systems are Installed with Ease Under Asphalt

Retrofitting your driveway with an electric heated driveway does not have to intimidate you or scare you away from the dream of having a driveway snow melting system. Asphalt driveways can easily be retrofitted with a driveway heating system designed by Warmzone. The heating cables can be placed beneath most existing surfaces. Using “saw-cut” technology, your existing asphalt driveway can be “sliced” in a grid pattern designed specifically to place radiant heat cables in the grooves. The heat cables are then laid in the sliced channels and covered back up with a thin layer of more asphalt to match your existing driveway. You also have the option of simply laying out the heat cable and then adding a new surface of asphalt directly on top of the cable.

Many homeowners are finding that driveway heating is a welcome addition to their property. Snowmelt systems are not a major remodel project due to the ease of retrofitting the system beneath your existing paved drives. Driveway heating saves time and physical pain because it does all the dirty work for you. You can also install a snowmelt system in your entry walk ways and surrounding sidewalks. You can retrofit snow melting systems beneath most surfaces. You’ll see that waking up to a clear driveway is worth its weight in gold. You’ll find it especially satisfying as you drive out of your neighborhood watching all your poor neighbors fighting the previous night’s snowstorm before they can leave their house for the day.
