Community Parking Lots And Driveway: Ice Melt You Can Use
When winter comes around, there is nothing more important than keeping your sidewalks, driveways, and entrances clear of icy buildup. Ice melt products can help eliminate the risk of slipping on ice and keep your community safe during cold months. However, there are many different types of ice melt out there and it can be overwhelming to know which one will work best for your community. In this blog post we’ll cover everything you need to know about finding a great ice melt product!

Choosing A Safe Ice Melt For Driveways And Parking Lots
When choosing a safe ice melt for driveways of your community, there are a few things to keep in mind.
The most common ice melts are sodium chloride, calcium chloride and magnesium chloride. Ice melts can be harmful to plants and animals if not properly used.
Sodium chloride (commonly known as salt) is the most commonly used ice melt product but it can harm plants and soils like concrete when left on surfaces for an extended period of time – this means that you should use rock salt sparingly so that it does not get tracked into homes or vehicles parked outside of driveways/parking lots.
Calcium Chloride is also an effective ice-melt agent but does not damage plants like sodium chloride does – however, it is difficult for plants/soils/concrete surfaces because they will absorb too much moisture from melting snow which could result in puddles forming around sidewalks after precipitation ends (or worse yet flooding!).
For the roofs of your community area consider using a safe metal roof ice melt.
Use Concrete Safe Ice Melt
Choosing the proper ice melt can help eliminate the black ice around community centres. Black ice forms when the temperature crosses the freezing point, so choosing a safe ice melt that can perform below the freezing point will be the right choice to protect everyone against the black ice dangers.
Salt and chloride-based ice melts can help in ice removal. However, we cannot ignore their harmful inverse effect on concrete driveways, sideways, and walkways, as well as on people, pets, and the environment.
