DielectricUnion stainless steel to Brass

Panel size:  23.5” x 23.5” (other sizes on request) Profile height:  1 5/16” including insulation Material:  Aluminum sheet with polyurethane insulation Heating element:  Mineral insulated resistance cable Power consumption (typical):  40W per sq. ft.

The ‘Heatizon’ electric snow melt system can efficiently snow melt practically any pedestal supported paver installation. It can be installed under most porcelain, concrete or stone pavers on terraces, patios, roof decks, walkways or exterior paved areas. This electric snow melt system just requires a minimum 1 3/4” clearance under the pavers to accommodate the aluminum tray and polyurethane insulation and allow for adequate drainage under the pavers.

Finally, the heating cable is connected to a control box with timer for manual activation or switch to activate heating when moisture is detected and the ambient temperature is below a selectable set point.

Simply send us a sketch of your elevated deck indicating the dimensions and designating all pavers or regions on the deck you want to be snow free.

The basic installation of this electric snow melt system does not require specialized contractors. Only the final connection of the heating cable to the cold leads and connecting to the control box requires a certified electrical contractor.

To install, aluminum support brackets 4” wide are firstly positioned on the pedestal heads to span adjacent pedestals. A aluminum tray with V shaped channels for the heating element and a polyurethane foam sheet adhered to the undersideis is placed over the brackets. The heating cable is laid in the channels, run the full length of area to be heated and returned to a common electrical connection point.

There are no restrictions on the minimum or maximum area for installation (other than electrical supply considerations). The heated paver area can easily be confined to specific zones within a paved area or just a section of a 24” × 24” paver if required. Most installations just require access to the electrical supply and a location to mount the electrical control box.

The ‘Heatizon’ electric snow melt system for pavers simply runs insulated electrical heating cables along channels in aluminum panels laid under the paving slabs.

The ‘Heatizon’ electric snow and ice melt system for pedestal supported decks requires no boilers, pumps, gas connections or complicated networks of pipes, valves and manifolds. It doesn’t need engineers to design the layout, piping and system specs. and no certified installers are needed for installation except to connect the system to the controller.
