Grand Rapids is a Michigan city on the Grand River, east of Lake Michigan. On the outskirts, the Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park has a tropical conservatory and multiple gardens. Its art collection includes works by Auguste Rodin, Henry Moore and Ai Weiwei. Downtown, the Grand Rapids Art Museum spotlights Michigan artists in its rotating shows. Although it’s located in the middle of the continent, Michigan is subject to cold and snowy winters. In addition, the city experiences some maritime effects due to its location east of Lake Michigan in the form of lake effect snow. With its rich history of art, some Michigan residents might view a snowstorm as a work of art by mother nature. On the other hand, the aftermath can be quite a challenge. Coping with snow removal by labor intensive shoveling, expensive/corrosive deicing chemicals or snow plowing can easily be solved by installing a snow melting system.
WarmlyYours Driveway Heating Works Well in Mortar Beneath Pavers
When replacing your driveway, it’s a perfect time to add a driveway heating system. The systems work well under asphalt, concrete and in mortar beneath pavers. These Grand Rapids homeowners had weathered some severe snowstorms and wanted to get away from shoveling, deicing and plowing their driveway. Since their driveway had been very slippery during the winter months, even with frost, it was also important to ensure that their property was clear of ice and snow for family and visitors. They chose a WarmlyYours snow melting cable system to meet their goal. See installation plan below.
For their project, the cost was $4695.00 for WarmlyYours snow melting cables to heat 613 square feet of driveway equivalent to $7.66 per square foot. Then they needed to choose a control from the wide array of snow melting controls to operate the system.
