But according to Farmer\u2019s Almanac, Colorado will get more than enough snow this winter. It is predicting \u2018normal to below-normal temperatures on the Central Plains and the Rockies.\u2019  The  Almanac also predicts above-normal snowfall in the northern areas of Colorado.Colorado looks beautiful covered in white snow. We Coloradans love snow, but it\u2019s always a challenge to keep driveways and sidewalks free from ice build-up without damaging it.If your driveways, steps, and sidewalk are composed of concrete or asphalt, then you have to be a little careful before using salt or chloride to melt snow in winters. .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_80dd49-46, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_80dd49-46[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_80dd49-46\"]{text-align:left;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_80dd49-46 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_80dd49-46[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_80dd49-46\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;background:#eeeeee;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_80dd49-46 img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_80dd49-46[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_80dd49-46\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_80dd49-46, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_80dd49-46[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_80dd49-46\"]{text-align:center!important;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_80dd49-46, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_80dd49-46[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_80dd49-46\"]{text-align:center!important;}}Concrete Safe Ice MeltSafe PawThe Original and the #1 Pet and Child Safe Ice Melt for over 20 years.

When the salt comes in contact with wate,r it percolates into the crevices of the concrete, forming a solution called brine. As the temperature increases and decreases, the freeze-thaw cycles of the absorbed water damages the surface resulting in cracks.So how to clear snow from pavements without damaging it? In this article, we will explore other ways to keep driveways and sidewalks ice-free without using these chloride-based harmful salts. 1- Chemical free ice meltInstead of rock salt or chemical-based ice melt, you can use chloride-free, salt-free deicers that act gently on the concrete and do not cause cracks and flakes on your driveways and pavements. These non-corrosive ice melters are concrete safe and come with a preventive Teflon effect that creates an invisible layer on the deiced surface, making it easier to shovel also. 2- Pre-treating the surfaceYou can also protect your driveway by pre-treating your driveway with the best ice melter for new concrete and preventing the snow from freezing up when it hits the ground. However, if the ice melt is not used in moderate quantities, it can be corrosive to the pavement. Therefore, rinse off the solution once the temperature rises and snow gets cleared..wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_a31899-39, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_a31899-39[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_a31899-39\"]{text-align:center;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_a31899-39 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_a31899-39[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_a31899-39\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_a31899-39 img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_a31899-39[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_a31899-39\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}Weather Forecast[wpc-weather id=”2338″ \/]3- Snow melting matsAnother way to avoid using chemicals and salt on your concrete pavement is by using a snow melting mat. Just plug it in, and the mat will start melting the snow in no time.Snow melting mats reduce your snow-removal efforts to a great extent, but they are expensive and are heavy on your electricity bill. The mats also come with a limited useful life and are subject to regular wear and tear. 4- Seal the dealDue to the porous nature of the concrete, water creeps in, and the frequent freeze-thaw cycle causes hydraulic pressure on the concrete resulting in the development of cracks. Therefore, a flexible sealant should be used to seal the cracks and prevent moisture from getting into the concrete. It’s always a great idea to stay prepared before the winters arrive. I hope you\u2019ve your stock of ice melter that is concrete safe ready with you before it starts to snow.Looking for more chemical-free, natural ice melt solutions that are safe and effective to use this winter?
