Calcium Chloride
has been a staple in
our winter de-icing
arsenal for over 5
years. We remain the
solitary user of
liquid calcium
chloride in the
area. This
alternative to rock
salt melts sidewalks
down to cement
quicker than normal
deicing pellets.
The residue remains
in place continuing
to work when salt
becomes ineffective.
Unlike the more
common sodium
chloride (rock salt
or halite), it is
relatively harmless
to plants and soil.
It is also more
effective at lower
temperatures than
sodium chloride.
