When the storm of the century hits, move mountains. Melting Mountains Ice Melt is engineered for the coldest climates on Earth, rated to perform in bone-chilling temperatures as low as -30°F (-34°C) – where most other brands freeze solid. Built with a high-potency blend of calcium and magnesium chloride pellets, this formula generates its own exothermic heat on contact. It doesn't just sit on top; it "bores" through thick ice and packed snowbanks instantly, creating a brine that prevents re-freezing in the most extreme sub-zero conditions.

Product Type: High-Potency Industrial Ice Melter

Active Ingredients: Calcium Chloride & Magnesium Chloride Pellet Blend

Lowest Melting Point: -30°F (-34°C)

Appearance: White/Translucent Pellets

Packaging: 50 lb Poly Bag

Application Rate: Up to 40% less product required than standard salt

Surface Safety: Safe for high-quality air-entrained concrete (2+ years old)

Special Feature: Exothermic (Heat-Generating) and Anti-Clumping

Manufacturer: Melting Mountains / Streamline Supply

In stock at all American Stone yards. Highly recommended for high-altitude regions (Heber, Oakley) and northern climates. Available by the bag or pallet (48 bags/pallet). Local pickup from Salt Lake, Heber, Sunset, Vancouver, or Oakley. Freight quotes for bulk commercial orders available upon request.

Q: How is this different from regular rock salt?
A: Rock salt is endothermic, meaning it needs to draw heat from the sun or air to work. Melting Mountains is exothermic; it creates its own thermal energy to melt ice even in total darkness and extreme sub-zero temperatures.

Q: Will it clump up in my spreader?
A: No. Melting Mountains is specially treated with an anti-clumping formula to ensure a smooth, even pour, even if the bag has been stored in a cold warehouse or garage.

Q: Is it safe for my driveway?
A: It is safe for professional-grade, air-entrained concrete that has been cured for at least two years. Because it works faster and requires less volume, it actually reduces the total chemical exposure to your surfaces.

Q: Do I need to use as much as I do with Blue Heat?
A: No. Because of the high concentration of calcium chloride, you can typically use up to 40% less product than standard blends to achieve the same (or better) results.

Perfect For

  • Steep Driveways & Inclines: Where immediate traction and melting are critical.
  • Commercial High-Traffic Zones: Hospitals, loading docks, and 24/7 facilities.
  • Sub-Zero Regions: High-altitude or northern areas where temps stay below 0°F.
  • Heavy-Pack Snow: Breaking up thick layers that shovels and plows can't reach.
  • Professional Contractors: Who need a reliable, fast-acting product that saves on labor.

Pro Tips from American Stone

When the temperature drops into the negatives, you need a different strategy—here is how the pros handle it:

  • Target the Bond: You don't need to melt the entire ice block; you just need to melt the bond between the ice and the pavement. Apply Melting Mountains and wait 10–15 minutes; the ice will "honeycomb," making it easy to scrape away.
  • Store High and Dry: Calcium chloride is hygroscopic, meaning it pulls moisture from the air. Keep your bags tightly sealed. If you have a half-used bag, fold it over and tape it shut to keep it fresh for the next storm.
  • Safety First: Because this product generates heat and is industrial strength, we recommend wearing gloves when handling it directly to avoid skin irritation.
  • The "Spot Treat" Method: For thick ice patches or frozen downspouts, apply a concentrated handful of pellets. The exothermic reaction will "drill" a hole through the ice much faster than a granular blend.
  • Spring Rinse: As with all high-performance chlorides, give your walkways a quick rinse with water once the ground thaws in the spring to protect your nearby landscaping.
