Michigan Melters - Home
Michigan Melters can
build the custom sized snow melting machine to your specs or sell
you our standard 606, 650,707 or 2018 machine which is capable of 70
tons per hour melting capacity.
Our snow melters are
completely portable and can be leveled in minutes, to be ready for
snow intake. Diesel
powered generators can be installed instead of the gasoline powered,
if preferred, on smaller models.
The rule of physics
comes into play, here, in that “it takes a certain amount of fuel to
melt a certain amount of snow”.
Fuel flow of any melting process is based on the volume of
snow dumped into the hopper and will work out to roughly two gallons
of fuel per ton of “dry” snow melted; plus the correction for the
efficiency of the machine under normal conditions.
Heavy, wet snow and ice will melt at a reduced rate.
Addition of snow at a reduced rate will cause the temperature
of the water bath to rise and melting rate will increase.
Vibration is almost
nonexistent and start-up is accomplished in moments from virtually
any temperature you will encounter.
We fire the melting system with industrial burners using
heating oil. These
burners are easy to operate and can be serviced by any heating
technician.
We have designed and
created these machines due to the increased difficulty in finding
snow dumping sites in heavily populated areas; we are now building
copies for sale to the snow removal industry.
It is, by far, more economical to melt snow on location
without having to expand or overwork staff, or face the constant
maintenance issues of heavily used snow removal trucks and
equipment.
Another added bonus
is the elimination of all the problems and cost involved in off-site
transportation and disposal.
And the alternative….leaving the snow piles aside to sit in
the parking area for months, taking up precious parking space, is
not necessary. Other
problems caused by the snow piles made, like the risk factors they
create, with blocking drivers’ views, causing fender-bender issues,
etc. can be eliminated also.
And last but not least, the environmental impacts are
negligible compared to any other disposal method!
We have leasing
available. A Limited three-year warranty is applicable in the
continental United States.
We have a service department to take care of your needs after
the warranty has expired, if necessary.
