Frost and snow protection

The effectiveness of the system is particularly important on inclined surfaces, for example, garage ramps. Please note, it is not necessary to heat the entire driveway as only the small areas that vehicle tyres tread need to be secured.

For driveways with steep angles, a linear drainage system is required to drain the water from melting snow and ice. This channel must also be protected from freezing.

For stairs, the cables are laid in the form of loops arranged across the steps, maintaining a sufficient distance between the adjacent sections. On new constructions, the installation is laid on the surface of the stairs and overlaid with a concrete layer with a thickness of three to five centimeters. On old stairs, the cables should be placed in grooves and overlaid with concrete, with an addition of plasticizer. Concrete should adhere closely to the entire surface of the cable without the presence of air bubbles.

Defrost systems can be installed during both the construction and renovation of existing facilities.

Snow clearing is no pleasure. Ice, however, is an even bigger problem resulting from frost after a snowfall.

The use of chemicals for de-icing is time-consuming and negatively affects the environment due to thawing mixtures destroying the soil, footwear and causing the death of plants. Thanks to Danfoss de-icing systems, there is an alternative to using chemicals which doesn’t damage surfaces and saves the need to purchase tools for removing snow and ice.
