OxyChem - ComboTherm

COMBOTHERM™ is composed of green and white chips produced by removing water from a natural brine solution found deep underground in Michigan. A performance indicator tells you the product is working. When the color indicator fades, the melting process is well underway. This unique ice melter is recognized for its similar composition and performance in every chip. The ingredients in COMBOTHERM™ are no secret; unlike most competitors who claim their blends’ ingredients are “proprietary information.” Smart property managers know that COMBOTHERM™ provides more of what they want – more value for their money. Trust the value of COMBOTHERM™ – more calcium chloride than any of the competitions’ blended products.

Application

The unique composition of COMBOTHERM™ Commercial Strength Blended Deicer makes it an economical alternative to other ice melters. Its blend of calcium chloride, sodium chloride and potassium chloride is better at melting ice, and a better value, than most blends which are primarily composed of rock salt. COMBOTHERM™ combines its melting power into each chip. A portion of the chips contains a green performance indicator to prevent wasteful overapplication. As the snow and ice melt, the color fades showing how quickly COMBOTHERM™ works. COMBOTHERM™ provides a cost-effective, high performance way to improve safety by melting ice and snow from sidewalks, driveways and parking lots.

Storage

Because COMBOTHERM™ contains a high percentage of calcium chloride, it is both hygroscopic and deliquescent. This means that the product can absorb moisture from the air, even to the point of converting to liquid brine. For this reason, COMBOTHERM™ should be protected from exposure to moisture while in storage. Opened packages should be tightly resealed after each use.
