industry SECRET to Salt & Brine: pricing, equipment, rates and more

What happens here

VSI's boom systems offer full control over spray width, with left, middle, and right booms that can be independently activated. The booms are designed to completely drain after use, preventing residual product from hardening and clogging the nozzles. This design is a significant improvement over traditional booms, which often retain liquid and lead to maintenance issues.

Goal: Understand the advanced features and maintenance benefits of VSI's boom system.

What they say

try to be responsible and help slow down that regulation because we don't necessarily want it either but it's coming because of how much salt is going into the environment and because it only takes one teaspoon of salt to permanently pollute five gallons of water so think about one teaspoon is five gallons a hopper full of salt is millions of gallons of water that pollutes when you put down that salt so reducing salt is important drinking water is important lakes and streams are important there's a lot of things there a lot of other drivers towards liquid are that um you know again this eight hundred three thousand dollars per ton of salt applied these large corporations own this real estate they don't want that long-term damage on their properties they want to reduce salt on their properties too because they're actually paying more money in long-term infrastructure costs than they are paying their snow pound director to apply the salt so let's reduce the salt as much as possible so let's summarize how you price out your liquid de-icing it's three to seven dollars per gallon correct on pre-treat you do 40 gallons and that's before the storm then you plow post treat you do double or 80 gallons per acre so what is our range
