Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

Throwing NaCl on your roof is going to get expensive fast as you corrode everything. KCl is best and even CaCl is a better choice than nacl. People just hear salt and grab what they can.
I picked up a few bags of Calcium Chloride the other day. It's easier on concrete as well. Landscape supply was $20 a bag. Rona was out of stock and theirs had been $30.

Make your own hand warmers. Throw a half cup of the stuff into a plastic bag and add water or snow when you need heat. It's exothermic and gets very hot very fast.

Learned that with my first pool while adding calcium to a bucket of the pool water (chlorinated). It was a race to get it stirred up with my hand and dumped in before it got too hot.
