SnoMelt (SM)

SnoMelt cables are industrial/commercial grade self-regulating heating cables that can be used for snow melting and ice prevention of surfaces such as concrete roads, ramps and paths. It may also be used on stairways, walkway gratings and loading docks. It can be cut-to-length on site to match exact lengths without any complicated design considerations.

SnoMelt will not overheat or burnout, even when overlapped upon itself, although this is not recommended. Its power output self-regulates in response to the surface temperature. Its self-regulating characteristics reduce energy usage and lowers operating costs.
