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

 When the weather turns cold, it’s important to make sure that your car is winter-ready. For many, this means stocking up on snow-melting salt spreaders, de-icer fluid, and a scraper.

Salt spreaders and de-icer fluid are two of the most essential winter car products. When shopping for these products, it’s important to do your research. Salt spreaders and de-icer fluid come in a variety of forms, including granules, liquid, and sprays.

Sprinkle salt on icy patches. If you’re dealing with icy patches, sprinkle salt on the shortest route that a car would take to travel, according to Consumer Reports. Using salt as a de-icer will help keep the ice from accumulating longer.

Remove snow. After you’ve sprinkled salt on icy patches, it’s important to remove snow that has accumulated on your car’s roof, windows, and doors. Consumer Reports recommends using a scraper or snow brush to do this.

Use liquid or spray de-icer. De-icer fluid comes in liquid or spray form, according to Consumer Reports. Spread liquid de-icer fluid on icy patches (it has a lower freezing point than snow so that it won’t melt the ice). Spray de-icer on snow.

Apply ice-melting spray. Apply ice-melting spray to snow-covered areas. The spray melts the snow and keeps it from accumulating.

Clean salt spreader. After you’ve used salt spreaders and de-icer fluid, it’s important to clean them to avoid corrosion. Consumer Reports recommends using brake cleaner.

 

How to maintain De-Icers & Salt Spreaders

 Salt spreaders and de-icers are used to help prevent snow and ice-related accidents, but it’s important to keep them in tip-top shape so that they can be effective.

• Regularly check batteries. Most salt spreaders and de-icers run on batteries or electricity. If you find that the batteries aren’t holding a charge, you should replace them as soon as possible.
• Check the pressure. Salt spreaders and de-icers use compressed air to propel salt across driveways, but it’s important to regularly check these hoses to make sure they are in good condition. If you notice that the pressure is dropping, it may be time to replace the hose.
• Clean the salt spreader. Salt spreaders and de-icers can get quite dirty, especially if you are regularly using them. It is a good idea to clean the salt spreader after each use, especially if it has been used in the winter.
• Check the blades. Salt spreaders and de-icers use metal blades to cut through the snow and ice. If the blades become dull, they may not be able to cut through the ice as effectively as they should. It is a good idea to periodically sharpen the blades.
• Check the engine. Salt spreaders and de-icers need to be hooked up to a power source. If you find that your spreader or de-icer is not adequately powering on, you should replace it.
