Reliable and Safe De-Icing Solutions in Lone Tree, CO
Eco-Friendly Ice Removal Services in Lone Tree
We only use deicing products that are safe for Lone Tree’s waterways, animals and plant life. Environmental
sustainability has always been a top concern for Kona. Some companies opt to use harsh chemicals, which are effective,
but we hold ourselves to a higher standard by choosing to use eco-friendly substances for our deicing services.
We focus on using rock salt, also known as sodium chloride and calcium chloride to deice your Lone Tree property
while keeping the environment safe.
Sodium chloride (rock salt) is widely used for deicing walkways and sidewalks on days where the temperature is holding at
15 degrees or higher. Rock salt is effective at temperatures down to negative nine degrees however. How does it work
to deice your Lone Tree property? Rock salt introduces dissolved particles into the liquid that lowers the freezing
temperature of water to below 32 degrees. This allows the ice to dissipate and prevents new ice hazards from forming.
The process of applying the salt is not intrusive to your everyday business traffic and is widely used across Colorado.
Rock salt is usually enough to handle ice removal in Lone Tree, but sometimes temperatures can really drop without warning.
On those really cold days, negative 10 and below, calcium chloride becomes the best substance for deicing solutions.
Calcium chloride comes in small, white spheres about a millimeter in diameter, known as “prills”. These prills work
to lower the freezing temperature of water even further than rock salt for snow and ice removal. Even on the coldest
of days in Lone Tree, Kona provides deicing services that eliminate the ice and snow not allowing it to refreeze.
