Snowmelter CT-15

The Trecan CT-15 is the ideal choice for property managers or snow contractors, who work with small ground level parking lots up to 5 500 sq m in size, such as condominium and apartment building parking lots. Because of its flexible specifications (trailer mounted, rear loading, snow start burner), the CT-15 model can be towed up a ramp or helix and can be loaded with a skid steer loader. With a capacity of 15 tons of snow per hour, its 3.4 million BTU/hr burner can melt 30 to 60 cubic meters of snow with an average snow density of 5 to 10 m per hour.

Main advantages:

1. Specific models available for parking lots and parking decks
2. Melts 15 tons of snow per hour;
3. Load with a Bob Cat or Skid Steer.
