ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for melting snow is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a heating chamber which is vented to the atmosphere, with the heating chamber including an upper portion and a lower portion. Spaced heat exchangers are positioned in the lower portion, which are heated by hot gas flowing therethrough. The heat exchangers exhaust the hot gas into the heating chamber so that heat is applied to the snow via the heat exchangers and directly by the discharge of hot gas into the heating chamber. Drain means are also included for draining water from the apparatus.
