Buyer Guide Snow Blowers

Winter has finally arrived! It’s time to get the snow blower out of the shed and clean up the snow. Don’t fall prey to flashy advertisements. Instead, spend some time reviewing the features and specifications of each model.

• Look for snow blowers that are lightweight. This is particularly relevant if you plan on using a snow blower on a regular basis.
• Look for a snow blower with a curved chute. These chutes bend more naturally, making it easier to shovel the snow into the snow thrower.
• Look for a snow blower with a 12-inch chute.
• Look for a snow blower with a 12-inch clearance. This is helpful because it enables you to clear more snow with less effort.
• Look for a snow blower with a 15-inch clearing width.
• Look for a snow blower with a 7.5-inch turning radius.
• Look for a snow blower with a 25-inch cutting width.

How to choose Snow Blowers

1. Size – consider the size of the area you need to cover
2. Storage – if you have a shed, garage, or basement, how much room do you have to store your snow blower
3. Throw Distance – how far do you want to throw the snow
4. Features – do you have an in-ground irrigation system?
5. Warranty – all snow blowers come with some sort of warranty, whether it is 1 year, 2 years, or lifetime

How to maintain Snow Blowers

 

1. Changing oils – this varies by model. Make sure to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations.
2. Changing filters – always, always, always change the filter.
3. Cleaning – some manufacturers recommend a snow blower-specific cleaner, but any lubricant like WD-40 should be fine
4. Storage – if you have the space, store your snow blower in a protected area like a garage or shed
5. Troubleshooting – if your snow blower is stuck in gear, check the drive belt to see if it’s wrapped. Pull off the belt from your snow blower and spin it. If it spins and the belt is in good shape, put it back on and give it another go. If it still doesn’t work, replace the belt.
