This heat quickly melts the ice and snow thus turning it into water.
Calcium chloride ice melt safe concrete.
The dissolving process is exothermic and generates heat of up to 60 degrees celsius.
Melt is designed to quickly safely and effectively tackle frozen snow sleet and ice on most driveways steps sidewalks and entryways.
Melt professional strength calcium chloride pellets effectively melt ice and snow on contact even at temperatures as low as 25 f.
Proven safe when applied as directed to quality concrete surfaces melt exhibits the following properties.
Experts agree that calcium chloride is the best ice melt for concrete surfaces.
Being a hygroscopic compound it absorbs moisture and thereafter starts dissolving.
So it absorbs water and then generates heat as it dissolves up to 140 f.
While potassium chloride is good for the environment it damages the concrete and typically costs 3 5 times more.
While opinions are not always the same most experts agree that calcium chloride is the best product for those seeking an ice melt that is safe for concrete.
Remarkable results professional strength melt is a unique formulation of calcium chloride pellets that accelerates the melting process by generating a large amount of heat on contact with snow and ice.
This is a hygroscopic compound.
