What the Liquid Learning course covers

Ten free liquid deicing lessons hosted by Jordan Smith, a pioneer in all-liquid deicing and the liquid deicing expert and marketing manager for BOSS Snowplow. Six lessons are built for snow and ice contractors and four for property owners.

For contractors: six lessons

1. Introduction to Liquid Deicing

Meet Jordan Smith of VSI by BOSS Snowplow and get the foundation: what salt brine is, how it is used to pre-treat, post-treat and pre-wet salt, and why contractors save up to 70% on salt.

2. Liquid Deicing Application Terms, Rates, Blends & Timing

Apply the right amount at the right time: 40 to 50 gallons per acre to pre-treat, 80 to 120 to post-treat, the 95/5, 90/10 and 80/20 brine blends, and when to adjust for wind, rain and wet snow.

3. Making Salt Brine & Additives

Great brine starts with salt that is at least 95% pure. Learn why brine must hit the 23.3% eutectic point, how to measure salinity accurately, and which additives lower working temperature, fight corrosion and stop refreeze.

4. Liquid Applications Pros & Cons

Liquids are the future of snow and ice. They deliver better consistency, accuracy and adaptability, and more regions are already setting chloride-reduction standards. It's not a question of if, but when. See why liquid deicing belongs in your operation.

5. Liquid Deicing Tools & Production

Build a liquid program that keeps up: brine makers that mix to 23.3% every time, storage at two to three times your per-event use, remote refill stations, and sprayers with speed-based rate control and three-lane booms.

6. Liquid Deicing Salt Savings

Switching to liquids doesn't mean cutting your price. Keep billing per occurrence, then follow a 100-acre example where liquids cut one event's material cost from $5,600 to $3,357.

For property owners: four lessons

1. Guide to Liquid Deicing

Meet Jordan Smith of VSI by BOSS Snowplow and see what liquids do for your property: safer surfaces sooner, up to 75% less salt, less salt tracked indoors and less long-term damage.

2. Why Contractors Over Apply Salt

Contractors often spread 1,000 lbs of salt or more per acre to limit slip-and-fall liability. Learn why only 160 to 200 lbs per acre is needed and how liquids close the gap.

3. Hidden Facility Costs

Studies show each ton of salt causes $800 to $3,000 in long-term property damage. See where that damage hides on your property and how liquids with additives cut it.

4. Starting a Conversation

Ready to make the switch? Learn the questions to ask your contractor, how to update your snow contract and why starting with pre-treatment and sidewalks works best.
