Northern Salt North Pro Heat Calcium Chloride Ice Melt Jug 12 lb — Fast-Acting, Melts to -30°F

Northern Salt North Pro Heat is a fast-acting calcium chloride blend de-icer that melts ice down to -30°F and uses up to 35% less product than regular rock salt.

Built for extreme cold, North Pro Heat (NPH) is a professional-grade ice melt made and tested in Minnesota. Its active calcium chloride formula plus a proprietary mix of chlorides and trace minerals delivers rapid melting, reduced scatter, and minimal white residue. The product’s natural pink tint improves visual coverage so you can see where you’ve spread it, and the optimized crystal size keeps material on the pavement rather than in vegetation.

How quickly will North Pro Heat clear ice and snow?

North Pro Heat is formulated to activate immediately on contact with ice and snow, accelerating the melting process even at very low temperatures. Because calcium chloride releases heat as it dissolves, NPH often outperforms standard rock salt in both speed and low-temperature performance.

• Melts effectively down to -30°F for overnight and extreme cold use.
• Fast action due to calcium chloride’s exothermic dissolution.
• Works day or night without relying on sunlight to activate.

Will using North Pro Heat reduce the amount I need to apply?

Yes—the product’s crystal shape and higher potency mean you’ll typically use less NPH than ordinary salts. The combination of stronger melting power and better surface adhesion reduces bounce and scatter, so coverage is more uniform and efficient.

• Uses up to 35% less product versus standard rock salt.
• Optimized crystal size reduces tracking and loss from wind or foot traffic.
• Natural color helps you see coverage for even application.

Does North Pro Heat harm surfaces, pets, or plants?

North Pro Heat is designed for reduced corrosion and minimal residue compared with many traditional de-icers, but it is still a salt-based product. For best results and to limit environmental impact, apply the recommended amounts, avoid direct contact with vegetation, and rinse surfaces if necessary once melting is complete.

• Formulated to reduce corrosion by up to 70% compared with harsher blends.
• Minimal visible residue due to natural pink hue—no added dyes.
• Less scatter means reduced run-off toward lawns and landscaping.

How should I apply and store this 12 lb jug?

The 12 lb jug is sized for homeowners and small commercial jobs—easy to carry and pour for targeted spreading. Apply NPH evenly over icy spots, use a spreader for larger areas, and keep the jug sealed and dry for long shelf life.

• Hand-spread for driveways, sidewalks, steps, and small parking areas.
• Compatible with handheld and walk-behind spreaders for larger coverage.
• Store in a cool, dry place with the lid secured to prevent clumping.

Who is this for: Northern Salt North Pro Heat is aimed at homeowners, property managers, and professionals who need a reliable, high-performance de-icer in severe winter conditions. If you need fast melting at very low temperatures, better coverage with less material, and a product tested in harsh northern winters, this 12 lb jug offers a portable, potent solution.
