Winter in Quebec can present numerous challenges for construction projects, but at Sanivac, we believe that weather should never slow down your operations. Thanks to our expertise and fleet of specialized trucks, we offer efficient and customized de-icing services to ensure your work continues, even in the most difficult conditions. Discover how our de-icing solutions are specially designed to keep your sites running, no matter the temperatures.
De-icing services for all your needs
Our approach is based on a comprehensive range of de-icing services tailored to every situation. Whether clearing concrete surfaces, frozen pipes, or building heights, we have the equipment and methods necessary to guarantee quick and effective de-icing.
One of the most in-demand solutions in winter is surface de-icing, particularly useful when preparing slabs, rebar, and formwork before pouring concrete. No matter the surface or structure, we can adjust our interventions to meet the specific needs of your projects.
For thicker or harder-to-reach ice layers, our dry steam de-icing method is the ideal tool. Using cutting-edge technology that generates up to 2,000,000 BTUs, this method allows us to treat large areas in record time while reducing water accumulation on the site. Our trucks can power up to three nozzles simultaneously, covering a wide area and ensuring maximum efficiency.
Lastly, we also offer solutions for more specialized tasks, such as thawing pipes—whether water intakes, sewer lines, or even electrical systems. Thanks to our 1⁄4 inch hose, we can directly intervene inside the pipes to ensure fast and safe thawing, avoiding damage to infrastructure.
State-of-the-art equipment
Our fleet of de-icing trucks is among the most efficient in the industry. Each truck is equipped with burners producing up to 2,000,000 BTUs, allowing us to quickly clear even the thickest ice layers. Additionally, with a hose reach of 300 feet, we can access remote or hard-to-reach areas without losing efficiency.
We also use hydro-excavation trucks for hot water de-icing, an ideal method for quickly removing large amounts of snow and ice. With burners producing 700,000 BTUs, these trucks can melt ice while simultaneously recovering the water generated, ensuring a clean and safe site.
Sanivac is also proud to have designed and developed custom innovations for high-altitude sites. Our autonomous dry steam de-icing container, designed by our in-house team, is a revolutionary tool. Attached to a crane, it can be lifted directly to the floors of a construction building, offering a unique solution for high-altitude de-icing. With the capacity to use up to three nozzles simultaneously, it can quickly treat large areas without compromising efficiency or safety.
Personalized de-icing service
At Sanivac, every project is unique. That’s why our experts carefully assess the needs of each site before recommending the most appropriate solution. Whether for surface de-icing, pipe de-icing, or high-altitude de-icing, we tailor our services to ensure optimal efficiency. Our qualified and experienced teams are always ready to intervene with speed and precision, ensuring the continuity of your work, even in the harshest winter conditions.
