Anti-Icing
Anti-Icing services are among the simplest yet effective treatments available. Anti-icing prevents the bond of snow and ice from freezing to paved surfaces. When done properly, it may even melt the first dusting of snow. The service also reduces the opportunity for “hard-pack” to develop and provides a wet surface under the plow’s edge. It’s often so effective, that in some cases after an anti-icing application, you may not even have to plow “nuisance snow.”
Deicing
Deicing is one of the most efficient ways to clear ice from your business’ walkways and parking lots. Salt is frequently mixed with inexpensive abrasives, such as sand, cinders, and grit. Abrasives offer no deicing benefits — only traction. Snow America uses a mixture of brine to ensure you’ll get more than traction.
Applying the appropriate amount of deicer helps ensure the safest conditions on your property.
