Snow Melt Plaque (NEC Requirement)
Snow Melting Accessories Description
In order to stay compliant with National Electric Code 426-13, WarmlyYours’ Snow Melt Plaque must be purchased and installed in coordination with a snow-melting system. The code states that embedded snow-melting equipment must be evident by the posting of appropriate caution signs or markings where clearly visible. Thus, this durable cast brass plaque can be easily installed in concrete or asphalt to indicate that the snow-melting equipment is located underneath the material. The plaque is 4” x 4” x 3/8” thick and includes a ¼” diameter x 2” long bolt and nut combination for anchoring.

Frequently Asked Questions
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.
GFEP is the National Electric Code (NEC) required protection for fixed outdoor deicing and snow-melting equipment, which may be accomplished by using circuit breakers equipped with ground-fault equipment protection (GFEP) of 30 mA. It is important to understand that this required equipment protection is NOT the same as a 5 mA GFCI used for personal protection.
To ensure optimal performance, snow melting heating elements should be installed so that they are consistently 2"-3" from the finished surface. For installations using pavers, the maximum thickness for pavers installed over heating elements is 2.5".

Fairly priced system, easy to install and setup. Staff is very friendly, knowledgeable and easy to get on the phone for questions about the system or pricing for another system. We will be working with WarmlyYours for all of our heated driveway and sidewalks projects from now on.

The cable was successfully installed in concrete, and the ohm & mega-ohm readings are satisfactory. We went to Arizona for the winter before finishing the installation of the controller, so we won't be able to comment further now. Thanks.

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.
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.
