Integrating Snow Melting Systems into Green Buildings

Even in mild climates, your entrance’s direction and shading may promote snow and ice accumulation on your driveway and pathways. Hydronic systems melt snow and ice by pumping a glycol solution fluid through tubing that is either put beneath brick pavers or set in concrete. For modest to medium-sized projects for your house or commercial structure, electric systems are created. They are a secure, dependable, and effective way to remove snow and ice from parking lots, exit ramps, stairways, and roads.

HeatedWay offers environmentally friendly snow-melting systems in Greater Toronto, uses boilers that have been tried and tested for a long time, ground source heat pumps, tunnel water heating, electric heating cables, and solar-assisted electric heating cables. These snow-melting temps are useful for quickly clearing snow and preventing ice formation without causing prolonged and frequent traffic delays. They have little environmental impact compared to a conventional winter maintenance practice based on deicing or anti-icing chemicals (i.e., eco-melting).

Net Zero emissions goals and targets are what we and our partners are moving towards to meet the great goals set by the Canadian government to reduce the carbon foot print around the globe.
