ABSTRACT:
In a method and apparatus for inhibiting ice mass formation around equipment housed in a chamber subject to water penetration, a plurality of compressible, non-absorbent, smooth-surfaced blocks are packed around the equipment to substantially fill the chamber. The blocks are provided with handles for their placement in and removal from the chamber. The blocks are particularly useful for inhibiting ice mass formation in shallow underground chambers housing telecommunications cable equipment.
