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.

Is it okay to cut the snow melting cable if it is too long for the application for which it was designed?

Never cut the heating cable. A heating cable will not work if it has been cut. If the heating cable is too long, call WarmlyYours to consult with a technician who will guide you in utilizing the additional length of cable.

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?

Yes. The manufacturer's splice that connects the heating element to the cold lead should be entirely embedded in a noncombustible material (like asphalt, concrete, or mortar) within the outdoor surface that is being heated.

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.

Snow you don’t (see what I did there)

Jim C., West Chester, PA on 11/19/2023

Installed electric snow melting system in a new flagstone walkway (over new concrete slab). I provided a sketch, almost immediately a design along with a list of all the parts and costs were provided. Exactly what I needed. Snow melting mats were placed in the mortar bed below the flagstone. Electrical work was straightforward. I tested the system and all is working exactly as intended. So if it never snows again, it’s probably my fault.

Excellent support, product, documentation, and stock

Mitchell S., Richmond Hill, ON on 11/15/2023

I had many questions, both while planning, and just before installation. WarmlyYours was great and answers, their on-line documentation is detailed and helpful, and everything was in-stock for pick-up. Looking forward to the snow.

Outstanding customer service, Pedro and the rest of the team

Vito P., College Point, NY on 11/01/2023

Outstanding customer service, Pedro and the rest of the team is always willing to help with any questions you may have. The heating mats are top notch and easy to install.

Great experience

Bill, Hawthorne, NY on 10/30/2023

From customer service to product quality, it was nice to have a company in your corner to help tackle a project.

Best service ever!

Marc C., Salt Lake City, UT on 10/19/2023

Mary was fantastic at listening and helping me find the best solution to melt ice and snow on my exterior stairs. Mary was kind and patient as this had many challenges and Mary worked through them all like a champ. We love our new system and love not shoveling.

Heating. Wire for driveway.

Vincent S., Wasaga Beach, ON on 06/07/2023

Easy to install, mostly because I have pavers on the driveway Your wiring looks very durable. My only concern is the exsesiers are very expensive. I had to look elsewhere for snow detectors for the unit. Otherwise I think your products are great.

Wonderful as usually

Jasmine U., Oak Grove, MO on 06/04/2023

Pedro and the tech team were wonderful as usual
