BlueHeat SnowMelting System Includes:
Heating Cable - The BlueHeat system uses a high quality and very durable cable that can withstand
nature's worst conditions. The BlueHeat cable
is UL listed and consists of a high quality nickel chrome wire covered with XLPE insulation,
a continuous copper grounding conductor surrounded by a metal jacket for mechanical protection, and an outer extruded PVC covering.
The cable is rated at 170° F and has a minimum 10-year warranty. The cable is designed to produce
30+ watts per square foot and is the quickest snow melting system on the market. |

Control Unit - The BlueHeat control units are NEMA 1, wall-mounted control panels. The size of the control unit is based
on the size and type of application, but the most common unit size is 14"x14"x4", which is the largest.
The controls include line and load terminal blocks and operating contactors. Every control unit
comes equipped with a 4-hr timer for manual operation.
The BlueHeat cable is
installed in concrete,
asphalt, or under pavers |

Activation Device - BlueHeat systems come standard with an aerial-mounted snow switch. This highly sophisticated device
automatically turns on the BlueHeat system and has several notable features, including adjustable temperature trigger point, adjustable delay off cycle,
upgradeable remote activation, and it is smart system compatible. The pavement-mounted snow switch is available for all systems but is mainly used
in commercial applications. With these devices, the BlueHeat systems are 100% automated and will turn on whenever it snows.
The 4-hr timer on the control unit acts as a manual backup in case the wind blows snow on the driveway or ice forms
due to wind or shade.
