Anyone have or look into getting a heated driveway system. What's the general cost. Is electric or Gas H/W better?
A client of mine did his walkway in front of his brownstone in NYC a few years back - he did everything high-end (electric) and I don't remember the cost. He's never looked back though
I've been wondering about this when looking at some homes with steep driveways. Seems like it could be a great way to make winters like this one a whole lot easier...
If I needed a new driveway I would think about it. Until then the snowblower will have to do. Curious as to what the additional installation cost would be.
I don't believe a heated driveway gets 'hot' exactly, just warm enough so no ice forms or will melt. You'd probably only keep it warm DURING a storm to prevent accumulation. It's not a terrible idea.

Its not a terrible idea, but how about solar panels? No cost and probably just enough energy to melt snow
