This heated floor mat is built with non-slip, UV protected rubber, and is designed to be left out for the entire winter season. This non-slip mat is madeup of an electrically operated heating element sandwiched between two protective surfaces of non-slip rubber, making them as durable as automobile tires and allowing them to endure harsh wear. These entrance mats plug directly into any standard 120V or 240V outlet using its own equipment leakage circuit interrupter(ELCI). Traction Mat eliminates snow and ice accumulation around the facility.Portable, designed to lie on top of existing surfaces. Place a traction mat over existing entranceways, stairs, loading docks, handicap ramps, rooftops, and many other surfaces, to provide a clean and safe passageway for foot or wheelchair access. Heated mats are a better solution for slip prevention. These rubber floor mats continuously melt snow and ice keeping surfaces constantly clear and safe. In addition, the non-slip mats are designed with a continuous chevron pattern to provide extra traction. The traction mats are a better alternative than calcium chloride. Salted entranceways leads to messy floors indoors as calcium chloride gets tracked inside by foot traffic. In addition, heated outdoor mats help preserve sidewalks, as calcium chloride will eat away at walkways over time.Product specifications: Surface Thickness: 1/4", Chevron Height: 1/8", Material: Reinforced UV stabilized natural rubber.

 Spend the money!! These are the best!!Dec 24, 2010
By Mike
These mats are the only way to go. I tried using the buried heat lines in concrete when I poured my stoops but they only lasted a couple of years. So, I bought two mats, one standard size 6'x4', the other I had Heat Trak make custom for me 9'x4'. Both are 220/240 to work with my old sidewalk system. I am using the snow and temp sensor to turn the mats on and off during the snow season. I called heat Trak direct and talked with Rich at Ext230. He was great in helping me order the custom mat. These are not cheap mats!!! But the old saying "you get what you pay for" When winter here in Iowa is done, I will just roll these babies up and store them in the garage. They really do make life a little easier!!

 Will melt snow, Will melt ice, Will Melt ITSELF!Nov 01, 2011

Years ago I had numerous HeatTrak units of varying sizes, and these units worked for years until the rubber dry rotted and cracked into pieces. The units were one piece molded units with the carpet molded right into the rubber pad.
So when it came time to replace my ancient HeatTraks I order a few new units. But the design had completely changed. The main rubber pad was now very thin and the carpet was molded to a separate thin sheet of rubber which was then GLUED to the main heated pad. Within days the carpet sheet was de-laminating and peeling up from the main pad.
So I returned the units and did without for a winter or two. So this year I bought two new units from HeatTrak. The design seemed much improved with a removable cord, nice GFCI plug, although the power light is barely visible, and an improve manufacturing process.
But then I plugged one of the units in and things went downhill quickly. The units has no temperature sensing, so they are always heating regardless of outside temperatures. After the first night I notice a small shiny spot where some carpet was missing in a 3" line, so I thought maybe a squirrel had chewed on the carpet. That is until I touched the area and it was so hot the melted rubber burned and stuck to my finger. I unplugged the unit and went out of town for the weekend, and when I got back my mat was completely destroyed! I could smell the melted rubber from 60' away as soon as I got out of my car. A friend had plugged the unit back in and the mat had completely melted 50% of the carpet, which now looked like molted pools of shiny rubber. The unit was still heating and was so hot you could not touch it. My dog had walked on the mat and his feet and fur were covered in molten rubber and his fur was all over the HeatTrak. That had to hurt! I had to shave him to get the rubber off. I couldn't believe the unit could produce enough heat to actually self destruct without blowing the GFCI. I picked the unit up and it has the consistency of an overcooked spaghetti noodle.
I thought perhaps it was a fluke, a single bad product. So I plugged my other HeatTrak pad in and this time I protected the area with chicken wire so my friends, dog and other animals could not get near it. And in just a day or two I started seeing melted lines, following the internal heating elements. Within two weeks I had two useless HeatTraks. When I took them back to the store, the store clerk took one look at my melted, dog hair encrusted HeatTrak, and said that I abused the pads and therefore they would not provide a refund or exchange.
So now I am out a couple of hundred bucks, and have but hope that potential customers read my warnings and heed them. For the sake of your dog and your family don't buy a HeatTrak, they are unsafe by every definition of the word.
