Buyer Guide De-Icers & Salt Spreaders

 If you’re looking for a salt spreader or de-icer, here are a few things you should keep in mind.

• Are you spreading salt on a road, on an airfield, in a parking lot, or on a walkway?
• Product Rating. Salt spreaders and de-icers are rated according to how durable they are. A higher-rated product will be more durable.
• Capacity. How much salt are you spreading? A single-cell de-icer is 4.2 lbs., whereas a 6-cell de-icer is 26 lbs.
• Weight. Weight is mostly related to portability and ease of use. If portability isn’t an issue, most salt spreaders and de-icers will be light enough to carry.
• Salt Type Required. The salt type required varies by application. If you’re spreading salt on a road, you should be using rock salt. If you’re spreading salt on an airfield, you should be using regular salt. If you’re spreading salt on a parking lot, you should be using fine-grade salt.

How to choose De-Icers & Salt Spreaders

 When shopping for salt and de-icers, it’s important to consider a few factors:

• How much do you need? In some cases, salt spreaders and de-icers can be bulky. If you know that you’re going to be carrying your salt spreader in the car and need to use it frequently, it may be better to invest in a larger size.
• How wide is the spreader or de-icer? If you’re going to be using it on icy roads, a wide spreader or de-icer may be best.
• Do you need a storage case? If your salt spreader or de-icer is going to be used on a regular basis, you may want to consider investing in a storage case.
• Do you need a shovel attachment? If you regularly find yourself shoveling snow, you may want to consider buying a shovel attachment for your spreader or de-icer.
• Do you need a bag? Some spreaders and de-icers also include a bag for carrying salt, which can be convenient.
• Do you need a hand drier? Some spreaders and de-icers include a hand drier, which can make it easier to spread salt while still having your hands free.
