Special Options

Snowstart

Standard Trecan Snowmelters require the addition of water to the melting tank prior to beginning melting operations. The Snowstart option allows the operator to load several buckets of snow into the melting tank instead, then fire up the Snowstart system and create the amount of water required to start snow melting operations. Snowstart is a very desirable option if access to water is limited or simply not convenient. This option is available on the 60-PD, 80-PD, 135-PD and 500-PD Snowmelters.

Aviation Fuel Compatibility

Because of availability and costs, being able to operate the Snowmelter on Aviation Fuel is considered a desirable option by some commercial and military Airports.
