Spec Sheet

Will the snow refreeze into ice once melted?
The controls have special features that prevent refreezing. They allow the system to keep working for a time after the snow has melted to maintain a clear path.
How long will it take for the snow to melt?
On average, the system will melt 2 inches of snow an hour.
What is the lowest temperature that a snow melt system can handle?
The controls will usually cut the system off around 17°F but if needed, you can override this setting.
What type of conduit should I use to bring power to the heating cables?
Just pull the lead wire through a metal ¾” conduit pipe to the junction box with a wire nut connecting it to the electrical source. Always use a junction box rated for outdoors.
Will I need a new/expanded electrical panel for my snow melting system?
Usually you will need an expanded electrical panel for your system, but the amount of power needed will depend on the total coverage you choose. An entire driveway will require more power than tire tracks. Always consult with a qualified electrician.
How much power does the system use?
A mathematic formula will help you figure out how much power your system will require. The formula is: (45 W/sq. ft. x area of your heated space in sq. ft.) / Volts = Amps For instance, a 300 square foot driveway would look like: (45 W/sq. ft. x area of 300 sq. ft.) / V (240V) = Amps = 13,500 / 240V = 56.25 Amps For help determining your system’s power usage, call us at 8003088057.
How much does the snow melting system cost to operate?
Many factors will determine the cost to operate your snow melting system. Local electricity rates, system size, and hours spent operating all play a role. For the example above (300 sq. ft. driveway), the breakdown would look like this: Watts = 300 x 45 = 13.5 Kilowatts. Kilowatt rate = 13.5 kw x $0.10 = $1.35 per hour Operation = 3-hour snow = $1.35 x 3 = $4.05 Each project will vary so it is wise to keep lag time in mind when the system remains on to avoid refreezing. Electrical rates differ depending on location and time of day. For a more personalized estimate, call a ThermoSoft snow melting specialist at 8003088057.
How much does a snow melting system cost?
Snow melting systems usually cost $8.00-$12.00 per square foot averaging $10.00 per square foot. Controls are sold separately. See www.thermosoft.com for more product details.
What happens if the cable is damaged during the installation?
If the cable is damaged, please call us immediately at 8003088057 and we can assist you further.
May I overlap the heating cable?
No, overlapping heating cables is not allowed and will cause severe damage to your system. Always make sure you meet the spacing requirements.
May I cut the cold lead wires?
Never cut any wires before consulting with a qualified electrician who has read and understands the installation manual that goes with your system and the local requirements. The electrician may cut, add extensions or splice them in a junction box. If you have any questions, call ThermoSoft and we will direct you further with any changes you wish to make.
Can I cut the heating cable if it is too long for the application for which it was designed?
Do not cut the heating cable under any circumstances. Cutting the heating cable will destroy your system and void its warranty.
How does the electric snow melting system compare to hot water tubing (hydronic) systems?
Electric systems and hydronic systems are close in price. However, electric systems offer benefits that hydronic ones cannot, like higher energy efficiency and ease of installation. Electric snow melt is always more economical than hydronic if the heated area is lower than 2000 sq.ft.
