Don’t you wish there was a way to avoid all the tedious, strenuous labor of shoveling snow? Shoveling snow can be extremely time-consuming and result in health issues such as low back pain when done improperly. The good news is that you don’t have to. When you call Snow Melt Utah to come out and install an outdoor radiant heating system, you can have nice, clear outdoor surfaces without having to lay a hand on your snow shovel.
No need to worry about how much snow Utah winters decided to dump on you last night when radiant heating can keep your paved surfaces snow and ice free. Outdoor radiant heating is the perfect solution to keep your paved surfaces warm so snow and ice don’t even get the chance to build up on them. One of Snow Melt Utah’s core values is caring for our community, and making winters easier for you with our professional outdoor radiant heating services is just one of the ways we can do that.
What Is Outdoor Radiant Heating?
Outdoor radiant heating heats your paved surfaces in order to prevent snow from sticking to them. It can heat concrete, brick, stone, and even asphalt surfaces. Outdoor radiant heating systems are installed underneath your surfaces and radiate heat up. This not only eliminates the need for manual labor to keep them clear, but also keeps your surfaces safe, clean, and so much easier to maintain.
It works by circulating warm fluid through tubing that is installed under your surface. This fluid then heats the surface, which melts any snow that falls onto it. Outdoor radiant heating systems can be turned on and off or be programmed to function automatically.
The Benefits Of Outdoor Radiant Heating
In addition to letting you kiss your snow shovel goodbye, there are many other benefits that come with outdoor radiant heating.
- It’s easy. All you need to do is either flip it on or control it so that it will automatically start running when the temperature and moisture levels hit a designated level.
- It makes your property safer through eliminating the risk of ice. Even when we shovel, there can still be ice that we just can’t get. Outdoor radiant heating keeps your surfaces ice-free.
- It protects your property and investments. Snow can scratch and damage your car, as can salt that you put down to keep ice from forming. Outdoor radiant heating melts the snow before it gets the chance to wreak havoc on your things.
When To Have Radiant Heating Installed
Since radiant heating goes under your surfaces, it’s best to have it installed when they are, either through new construction or through a renovation project. Radiant heat is typically installed anywhere from late spring to late fall.
Outdoor radiant heating needs to be embedded into the surface with a frame or mesh. If it’s put in too deep, it won’t work right, while if it isn’t deep enough, it can overheat. It will then be laid out in order to ensure it fits. Then, they’ll be installed and the rest of your surface material will be laid down over them. Once it’s done, it’s ready to be used.
