What you may not realize&mdash;the <a title=\"The benefits of electric snow melting systems\" href=\"\/snow-melting\/heated-driveway-benefits\/\">benefits of electric radiant heated driveways<\/a> far outweigh their modest installation costs.

In&nbsp;either case, the heating elements are installed under the surface of the driveway, and radiate heat upwards to quickly melt snow and ice before it has a chance to stick.<\/p>\n<p>Every automated driveway snow melting system is composed of three main items: the heating element, the controller and the activation device.

Heat the entire driveway or just heat two 24-inch tire tracks. Heated driveway systems can be easily customized to fit your needs.<\/p>\n<p>A wall-mounted control box is the command center for the automated electric radiant heated driveway. It communicates with aerial or pavement-mounted snow <span class=\"glossaryLink\" aria-describedby=\"tt\" data-cmtooltip=\"cmtt_cbb84b6374fdee36a65796432a2eb2c1\" data-gt-translate-attributes='[{\"attribute\":\"data-cmtooltip\", \"format\":\"html\"}]' tabindex=\"0\" role=\"link\">switch<\/span> that activates the system when it detects precipitation and the temperature reaches a set point (usually set at 38-39&deg; Fahrenheit).

And if you want to get a jump on the weather, most systems include a manual timer for preheating areas before a large storm or melting a snow drift or ice that found its way to your driveway well after the storm hit.<\/p>\n<p>Now that you understand just how an automated driveway snow melting system works, it&rsquo;s easy to see the benefits. The initial purchase and installation of a heated driveway system more than pays for itself when you consider the fees associated with professional snow removal services. A&nbsp;radiant heated driveway operates for just pennies on the dollar, and is activated before one snowflake ever hits pavement. With a snow removal service, you&rsquo;re facing much longer wait times, and years of seasonal fees that can be quite large.<\/p>\n<p>So perhaps you&rsquo;re a roll-up-your-sleeves-and-start-shoveling or snow blowing type. Depending on how deep the snow is, you&rsquo;re also facing minutes to hours of shoveling or pushing a gas-spewing, noisy snow blower around, plus the risk of serious injury, depending on your age and physical condition. Using salt and other harsh snow melting chemicals destroys the surrounding vegetation, but <span class=\"glossaryLink\" aria-describedby=\"tt\" data-cmtooltip=\"cmtt_142748a752fd79d8fbef3a6819628e36\" data-gt-translate-attributes='[{\"attribute\":\"data-cmtooltip\", \"format\":\"html\"}]' tabindex=\"0\" role=\"link\">radiant heat<\/span> eliminates the need (and cost) of chemicals. <a title=\"About heated driveways and snow melting systems\" href=\"\/snow-melting\/about-heated-driveways\/\">Heated driveways<\/a> can save you money and time. Wouldn&rsquo;t it be nice to spend the time saved inside with a newspaper and your favorite hot beverage watching the snowfall instead?<\/p>\n<p>The price of an electric radiant heated driveway, along with the ease of installation and low operational costs make it the perfect choice for a homeowner on a budget.
