If you’re tired of shoveling snow off your stairs or slipping on ice that blankets them in the mornings, then here’s a gadget to make life a little easier:
Outdoor heated stair mats.
Outdoor heated stair mats.
Install these guys on your stairs, and they’ll melt up to 2″ of snow per hour and keep ice from
forming and making footing treacherous.
The stair mats are powered by electricity, so they will need to be plugged into an outlet, but they eliminate the need to shovel snow or spread chemicals to de-ice the area, so it’s not a bad trade off. They plug into a standard 120V outlet, so you don’t need anything fancy to hook them up. The mats are supposed to be durable enough that you can leave them outside all winter.
Frontgate sells 3-mat sets for $250, and you can also buy additional mats one at a time. There’s a heated doormat too (hey, you want the complete collection, right?).
