Drive through any new neighborhood in the winter, and you’ll see those sleek heated concrete, asphalt or paver driveways free of snow everywhere you look. You see them everywhere, you covet them with wanton eyes, but you never come around to getting one yourself. Well, the good news is, there are no more valid reasons for you to be a fence sitter. Here are 10 seal-the-deal reasons why those heated driveway systems you’ve been seeing are the coolest driveways in town. Consider yourself sold.
1. Electric heated driveway
systems require no maintenance. This means you can sip your hot cocoa
from your window and taunt the poor guy next door who is
losing the battle of the blizzard one shovelful at a time.

9. Radiant heated driveways
are fully automated. That’s right! With absolutely no
effort from you, the heated driveway system senses freezing
precipitation and gets the job done. Of course, this
state-of-the art automated system only turns on
