Customer Questions & Answers
Snow Melting has 26 Questions and Answers.
How quickly do these systems melt the snow?
That depends on a number of variables (like the temperature outside) but generally speaking these snow melting systems are designed to melt 1" - 3" of snow per hour. Anything above 3" per hour is typically considered blizzard conditions.Ā
Is it okay to cut the snow melting cable if it is too long for the application for which it was designed?
How does the electric snow melting system compare to hot water tubing (hydronic) systems?
The material costs are similar. However, electric systems are easier to install, with fewer components and significantly lower maintenance costs. Electric systems will run for a shorter period of time to give the same level of performance but with much higher energy efficiency (typically 95%-98% efficient). Controls and sensors required for the two types of systems are very similar. Electric systems do not usually require slab insulation and do not create the concerns typically associated with hydronic systems. These concerns include, but are not limited to, return temperatures, flue gas venting, waterway shrinkage and property damage caused by leaking pipes or tubes.
May I cross or overlap the WarmlyYours snow melt heating cable?
When installing outdoor WarmlyYours snow melting cables for your driveway, patio, walkway, terrace, stairs, ramp, etc. - NEVER cross, overlap, or allow the heating cables to touch each other. Doing so will quickly cause a circuit failure due to excessive heat build up. Always follow the installation instructions and/or design layout plan to ensure the cable is installed with the correct spacing required for proper operation.
Does the factory splice need to be completely embedded during installation?

Don W., Chester, CA on 06/25/2024
Purchased a snow melting mat that was installed in concrete. Haven't had any snow yet to try it out but it should definitely help in the winter. Laurie at WarmlyYours was excellent to work with and responded very quickly to my questions. Thanks so much!

So glad I went with WarmlyYours
William M., Three Lakes, WI on 01/09/2024
I was slow to decide on a company to help me with my metal roof deicing project. I had a budget I needed to stay under. I wanted to do the work myself including the Electrical (my Dad is an electrician retired but would help). I decided on WarmlyYours because they had the best help video's, and staff to help plan and install my project. I didn't think I would get it up and running this year because of my late start. A slow start to winter let me get one leg of a two leg plan done up and running. Now we finally have snow and my one leg works great. This spring laying out the other leg will be easy (and warmer) this spring.
Good product for the price
Mark G., Aston, PA on 01/02/2024
Other than some miscommunication on individual heat cable rolls versus pre-fabricated mats with cables already attached, the installation went pretty well. the control box I ordered was also backordered so needed to go with a more expensive model.
Good choice
Mike M., Lakewood, CO on 12/11/2023
The WarmlyYours ice melt I recently installed is working great. They clearly have a 5 star product. I have only two slight complaints: none of the contractors referred by WY ever bothered to call back, so I had to find electrician and concrete guy myself. The plastic cover on the Snow Switch should be hinged instead of fastened with screws.
