Buyer Guide De-Icers & Salt Spreaders
For an in-depth look at the different types of salt spreaders and de-icers available, please read this guide.- Electric Salt Spreaders. Electric salt spreaders pump brine out through a tube. This automatic method eliminates the need to manually refill the salt reservoir.
- Manual Salt Spreaders. Manual salt spreaders require you to manually pour salt onto the salt reservoir. Salt is then pumped out by auger-like devices.
- Snow Pushers. Snow pushers are similar to salt spreaders, but designed for snow instead of salt.
- De-Icers. Similar to salt spreaders, de-icers pump brine out through a tube. This automatic method eliminates the need to manually refill the salt reservoir.
- Pusher De-Icers. Pusher de-icers, also called snow pushers, typically feature auger-like devices that push snow in a circular path.
How to choose De-Icers & Salt Spreaders
Salt spreaders and de-icers are essential tools to have on hand during the winter months. If you’re worried about getting stuck out in the cold this winter, then read on.- Consider your salt needs. How much salt do you typically need? Salt spreaders and de-icers come in all different shapes and sizes. If you have a small driveway or a small family, a small, handheld de-icer might be the best option for you.
- Is battery life important? Some de-icers can be battery-powered, which can be useful if you’re stuck outside in a snowstorm. However, some battery-powered de-icers aren’t very portable, and using them can be inconvenient.
- Consider which type of salt to use. If you live in an area that has salt brine, then you’ll want to consider keeping a bag of salt brine on hand so you can use it on icy surfaces.
- Do all de-icers require manual activation? Some de-icers require manual activation, while others use motion sensors. Manual activation de-icers can take a little bit of time but require no battery power. Motion sensors require battery power, but you can start them as soon as you step outside.
