Product details
The APOLLO Snow Melt Sensor automatically detects the
presence of snow or ice and activates snow-melting systems
only when needed. Designed for hydronic and electric snow
melt applications, it improves safety while reducing energy
consumption.
Features:
- Automatic snow & ice detection for smart snow-melt activation.
- Normally Open (NO) dry contact output (closes when snow is detected).
- 24V AC / DC power supply compatibility.
- Stainless steel enclosure for outdoor durability and corrosion resistance.
- Wall-mount stainless steel support included.
- 12-inch mounting arm to position the sensor away from the wall.
- Fixed 15° inclination built into the support to prevent snow accumulation.
- Fast response time for reliable operation.
- Weatherproof design (IP-rated) suitable for harsh winter environments.
- Compatible with external controllers, slab temperature sensors, and outdoor air sensors.
- Ideal for driveways, walkways, ramps, and commercial snow-melt systems
Customer Success Stories
Since installing the Apollo heat pump, our energy bills have plummeted. It pulls heat right out of the air outside, even when it's freezing, and uses a fraction of the electricity our old system did. It's incredibly efficient
I was skeptical about a heat pump in our cold climate, but the Apollo proved me wrong. It consistently delivers strong, comfortable heat to our entire home, even during the deepest winter freezes. It's a truly robust system
Upgrading to the Apollo air-to-water heat pump was the best decision for our home. It integrated perfectly with our existing radiant floor heating. It runs quietly outside and provides perfectly even, comfortable heat inside
You can tell just by looking at the Apollo unit that it's built to last. It handles the elements outside without a problem and operates surprisingly quietly. It gives us total peace of mind knowing we have such a dependable system
