What is a Snow Melt Heating System?

A snow melt heating system is an innovative solution that automatically heats outdoor surfaces to prevent the accumulation of snow and ice. These systems are installed beneath driveways, sidewalks, patios, and other outdoor areas to keep them clear and safe during winter. By using either electric cables or hydronic tubing, heat is distributed evenly across the surface, melting snow and ice as it falls.

Benefits of a Snow Melt System

  • Enhanced Safety: Prevent slips and falls by keeping walkways, driveways, and steps clear of ice and snow.
  • Convenience: Eliminate the need for shoveling, snow blowing, or applying salt and chemicals.
  • Protection for Your Property: Avoid damage to your driveway or landscaping caused by traditional snow removal methods.
  • Energy Efficiency: Modern systems are designed to be energy-efficient, activating only when needed based on temperature and moisture sensors.
  • Increased Property Value: A snow melt system is a premium feature that adds value to your property.

Our Snow Melt System Options

1. Hydronic Snow Melt Systems

Hydronic systems use a mixture of water and antifreeze that circulates through flexible tubing installed beneath the surface. The heated liquid melts snow and ice efficiently, even in large areas. Hydronic systems are ideal for:

  • Large driveways
  • Commercial properties
  • High-traffic areas


Key Features:

  • Powered by a boiler
  • Highly efficient for large areas
  • Lower operating costs for extensive installations


2. Electric Snow Melt Systems

Electric systems utilize heating cables installed under the surface to generate heat. These systems are perfect for smaller areas or for properties without a boiler system.


Key Features:

  • Easy installation for small to medium-sized areas
  • Low maintenance with no moving parts
  • Quick response time to snow and ice
