Hate Yearly Snow Removal? Consider a Snowmelt System

Are your sidewalks and handicap accessible ramps safe and clear during the winter months? There are many options and safety advantages for snow clearing and removal but an often overlooked option is installing heated sidewalks, parking lots, steps, and ramps called snowmelt systems. These heated systems use various forms of energy that are cost-effective and beneficial to your needs while also being environmentally friendly. The systems can be easily customized and installed in almost any type of medium to include concrete, asphalt or in the mortar between pavers. Team Cam can customize and install snowmelt systems to withstand the stress of fresh concrete pours or the heat of new asphalt installations and meet ADA requirements.

Benefits of snowmelt systems include but are not limited to:

1. Enhances Safety – Radiant snow melting systems drastically enhance the safety of your property during the winter season. The possibility of personal injuries due to slipping on dangerous ice and snow is virtually eliminated. Your property is protected and kept clear on ramps, entryways, steps and parking areas – wherever the system is installed.
2. Cost-Effective – Many radiant heat systems available today have little to no moving parts making them reliable, easy to install and nearly maintenance-free.
3. Energy Efficient – The majority of snow melting systems are energy efficient as they operate cleanly on renewable energy, feature rapid response times, and operate only when needed. Systems typically only run for a few hours per snowstorm and leave your areas free of snow and ice for the duration of the storm.
4. Fully Automated – No more having to check the weather constantly and keeping watch to clear paths manually! Our systems are fully automated with advanced sensors to detect precipitation and temperature. If precipitation is detected and the temperature is below the freezing point, the master controller will be automatically activated to ensure the unit operates only during the time before the storm hits and shuts off shortly afterward.
5. Environmentally Friendly – A radiant heated snow melting system can extend the life of your driveway, sidewalks or parking lots. Standard salt and snow melting chemicals that are typically used destroy grass and nearby vegetation as well as cause potentially dangerous messes when dragged indoors from walking through these conditions. No more salt and chemical runoff from your property to ruin the landscape or environment!

Keeping your sidewalks, parking lots and ramps clear of snow and ice are of the utmost importance for a safer winter season on your property.
