Snow Free Driveway

Project Management

We have installed many in floor heating slabs and will be happy to help assist you in designing and installing your radiant heated concrete slab.  Just one of our many examples is at the Courtyard Apartments in Austin, MN where there is a steep decline and curve that leads to their underground parking complex which required a system like this and we were proud to have been a part of it back in 1999. It has over 16+ years of use and it works beautifully.  From driveways, to sidewalks, basement floors, warehouse floors to garage floors, its all possible.

Snow and Ice Melting

The concept of radiant floor heating can also make driveways and walkways clean and dry during the winter, eliminating the need for salting, sanding or shoveling. Uponor snow and ice melt systems help lower maintenance costs, reduce dangerous accidents associated with slippery walkways, extend the life of concrete and eliminate disturbing noise from snow blowers as well as the problem of tracking salt and sand into your home.

Safety & Cost Savings

Everyone wants to help lower maintenance costs and reduce the liability associated with slippery walk-ways. With Gary Groh Construction and Uponor, we can help do that. Damage to building entrance ways is also eliminated since no water, salt or ice melt chemicals are tracked in.

Toss the shovel, not the snow!

Snow removal is a time-consuming and often costly task. A necessary evil. For our elderly and handicapped community it’s a real hassle, maybe even dangerous. It’s time to make snow removal easy.  Traditional methods of snow removal, such as shoveling and salting are costly, messy, and labor-intensive. Uponor offers a superior alternative with the Uponor snow-melting system.  It works by having the warm water circulate through durable crosslinked polyethylene (PEX) tubing embedded in the concrete and the warmth from the water warms the surface to a temperature that melts snow and ice on contact.

Imagine having a system that provides a simple, weather responsive, economic and fully automatic solution for snow melt. Uponor’s hydronic systems circulate warm water through Uponor PEX tubing buried in the ground. This makes the worry and inconvenience of snow and ice removal a thing of winters past!
