HeatTrak Snow & Ice Heated Walkway Mat, 120 Volt Review

HeatTrak Snow and Ice Heated Walkway Mat, 120 Volt

(More customer reviews)
We bought this item for our steep driveway, so that we can cut down on heavy shoveling during large snowstorms. It is enough to melt the snow to allow one side of your car tires to roll over and gain enough traction to get up the hill. The heat is barely noticeable. If you place a ball of snow on it it will not melt instantly but rather over 10-20 minutes. We keep this outdoors all winter and it is very sturdy. It is also very heavy to pull out from storage. If you are a petite person you will need another person to help you carry this out to the walk. For this winter we used it in front of our house to clear a walkway from the street to the front door. Melts snow perfectly and even dries a rim of concrete all around it. No more slipping on ice or slushing through snow!

The HeatTrak 24-inch x 10-foot Industrial Heated Walkway Mat is an electrically heated mat designed to prevent snow and ice accumulation around the home or facility.As opposed to the HeatTrak Residential Products which are made exclusively for residential use, the HeatTrak Industrial products are designed for areas with heavier foot traffic. The mat is made of an electrically operated heating element sandwiched between two protective surfaces of non-slip rubber, making it as durable as automobile tires and allowing it to endure harsh wear. The 24-inch x 10-foot Heated Walkway Mat plugs into any standard 120V outlet generating heat to melt snow at a rate of 2-inch per hour. The mat can be secured to the ground using its built-in grommet holes and is designed to be left outside for the entire winter season. The Industrial Heated Walkway Mat comes with its own inline ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI).

No-Slip Ice Carpets (2) Review

I purchased this product after reading the reviews. I have ordered from the Improvements catalog before and was pleased. I purchased this for my Mother in Law whose townhouse has a steep wooden wheelchair ramp (carpeted) out front. My Father in Law built it and it needs to be rebuilt correctly or done away with totally. Anyway, last winter for the first time in 7 years that ramp was an icy slope, that my husband nor I could walk up. It was quite the sight. I sent her the ice carpet so I wouldn't have to worry about her walking down that ramp.

Reduce the danger of slipping and falling on icy steps or slick walkways by rolling out a No-Slip Ice Carpet whenever it's needed. This natural fiber no-slip outdoor runner is safer to use than salt which can take forever to work, especially in very low temperatures. And rolling out a No-Slip Ice Carpet is a lot easier than trying to chip away ice with a shovel!The sturdy No-Slip Ice Carpet is treated with latex rubber to grip ice, snow, and any other wet walking surface. Effectiveness will vary, depending on the surface on which its placed. (Test before use.) Use this outdoor runner when you're expecting guests, to help out the mailman or delivery person, or just for your own safe navigation to and from your home. (It helps keeps footwear cleaner, too!) Remove the no-slip ice carpet if snow or ice is predicted, and replace after it stops. When ice melts, just roll up the No-Slip Ice Carpet and store it away to use another time. You get two No-Slip Ice Carpets, each 18"W x 10' L.Extra-Wide Ice Carpet is ideal for wheelchair ramps or wider walkways. 30"W x 10'L. You get one.Caution: Although the ice/snow carpet greatly enhances footing on snow and ice covered walkways, extra caution should be taken when snowy or icy weather conditions exist.Benefits of the No-Slip Ice Carpet:No-Slip Ice Carpet reduces the danger of slipping on icy, snowy steps or pathsSafer and easier than salt or shovelingThis outdoor rug rolls up for convenient storageKeep slush and dirt from being tracked into your home with one of our Dirt Stopper Doormats.

Ice Carpet (Set of 2) Mats Walkway Home Safety Review

I bought two sets of these based on others' good reviews. When I got them, I wasn't sure how useful they would be for my application for older dogs going down a slope with pavers, across deck, etc. The material is similar to thin cut cocoa mat and they come rolled up, so they didn't lie flat at first, but once they get wet with rain/snow, they will lie perfectly flat and are great. Before these, my oldest dog had been having a terrible time with slipping on the ice and wet wood deck this winter and my younger dog also slipped and fell running across the deck; both are doing well on these. I would highly recommend them!
