Maximize Value: Cost Per Application For Popular Ice Melts On All Surfaces

Hey there! With winter approaching, you might be stacking up on ice melt to prevent those frosty accidents around the home. But, have you ever wondered if you’re getting the most bang for your buck? The truth is, that not all ice melts are equal. Let’s deep dive into understanding the cost per application, how it varies for different surfaces, and why it matters.

Salt Free Ice Melt

Understanding The Real Cost

When we look at the price tag on that bag or pallet of ice melt, it’s just the tip of the iceberg (pun intended!). The true cost involves understanding how much you need to cover a given area effectively. Some melts may seem cheap, but you might need heaps of them to see results. On the other hand, some might be pricier, but their spread rate and effectiveness mean you end up using less.

Why Salt And Chloride-Based Melts Might Cost You More

I know, they’re everywhere! But here’s the deal:

• Not-so-friendly to Surfaces: These melts can cause corrosion, leading to repairs. Whether it’s your concrete walkway showing signs of wear or that metallic fence getting rusty, the repair cost can escalate.
• Harmful to Flora and Fauna: The residue left behind by these melts can harm plants and be toxic to our furry friends. If you’re spending on reviving your lawn or on vet bills, are you really saving?
• Environmental Impact: Salt runoff harms our water systems. It’s an unseen cost today but can lead to bigger ecological expenses in the future.

Making An Informed Choice

Let’s bring it home with some quick math. Suppose you have a 500 sq ft area. A cheaper salt-based melt might cost you $10 for the bag but requires three applications in a week during heavy snow. That’s $30 a week.

On the other hand, Safe Paw might cost you $24 but only requires one application for the same period. That’s still less than the cost in terms of application. Plus, no damage to surfaces or health risks.
