 Ice and Snow Control Mats and Treads

 

 

 

Snow and Winter are beautiful for all the skiing and picture post card landscapes with wonderful mountains and happy children building plump round snow men and making cute little snow angles everywhere they can. Who doesn't dream of the warm cozy fire place with dancing flames flickering their golden glow over wistful faces and glasses of hot cocoa. Those faces are usually full of that certain look of total exhaustion from having just spent the last four hours shoveling out from those 8 to 12 inches of what the weatherman told us was coming: SNOW.

Electrical Energy Consumption: Ice and Snow Control Mats and Treads, as all electrical appliances, are described from an electrical energy consumption point of view by the rate at which they use electrical energy. (Click HERE for a summary of the wattage rating system).

The 2 foot wide Ice and Snow Control Mats are rated at 64 Watts per linear foot. The 3' wide Ice and Snow Control Mats are rated at 104 Watts per linear foot.

To determine the electrical consumption of a particular Ice and Snow Control Mat, multiply the linear feet (i.e. a 2' x 20' mat has 20 linear feet) by the number of Watts per linear foot (in the case of 2 foot wide mat it is 64 Watts) and divide the result by 1,000 to yield the number of kilowatts consumed by that mat in an hour.

So, a 2' x 20' mat = 20 x 64 = 1,280 divided by 1,000 = 1.28 kilowayys per hour.

If the local cost per kilowatt hour is 13 cents per kilowatt hour, that 2' x 20' Ice and Snow Control Mat would cost 1.28 x 0.13 = $0.166 or about 17 cents per hour to run. Please refer to the Price Chart for available mat sizes and detailed descriptions of each mat including the wattage rating. Then use the above formula to determine the overall consimption and cost per kilowatt hour for the mats required to run your Ice and Snow Control System.
