ABSTRACT:
For uniformly heating a snow collecting surface on an outdoor structure, e.g., a roadway, a heat exchanging pipe system is embedded in the structure near the surface. The pipe system comprises two sets of parallel, and preferably, interdigitated sets of pipes, and means for pumping heated water in one direction through one of the sets of pipes and for pumping water in the opposite direction through the other set of pipes. Preferably, underground water is used; one well being used from which the underground water is pumped, and another well being into which the water discharged from the heat exchanger is pumped for eventual reheating of the discharged water.
