Product Questions & Answers
1. Why are IceAway rock salt crystals screened?
Screening produces more consistently sized crystals, helping improve spreading and melting performance.
2. Is “100% natural rock salt” the same as 100% pure sodium chloride?
No. Natural rock salt can contain other naturally occurring minerals. Compass Minerals reports typical sodium chloride content of approximately 97%.
3. Does the 5°F melting rating guarantee the same results during every storm?
No. The manufacturer rates IceAway to melt down to 5°F, but actual performance varies with pavement temperature, ice thickness, moisture, and application conditions.
4. Why does the listed pallet weight exceed the weight of the salt?
The 49 bags contain 2,450 pounds of salt. The manufacturer lists a total pallet weight of 2,515 pounds, including packaging and the pallet.
5. Is IceAway intended for commercial snow removal operations?
Yes. Compass Minerals identifies contractors, landscapers, and other winter maintenance professionals as intended users.
