Smart Snow Management

The Frost Solutions suite of snow and ice management tools is designed to give public works crews a leg up on winter. Our products all work independently or cohesively, depending on your municipality's needs. Deploy your snow crew from the comfort of your bed, optimizing for road safety and saving taxpayer dollars on false deployments.

How Municipalities work with us

We are happy to work with you directly, or work through your preferred cooperative buying site. We are an approved vendor on OMNIA, Sourcewell, and Bonfire. We are also the exclusive RWIS of choice with Tapco. Looking for another? Just ask!

Share Data Across Neighboring Cities

We are happy to facilitate free data sharing with neighboring cities with Frost units for more advanced notice on incoming weather and additional data points.

Option 1: Microclimates

• Split your Municipality into Sections. This can be the simplest and fastest way to get started, but may not result in the most useful data depending on your topography and road systems. Think about the different climates across your municipality and try to adequately represent each one.

Option 2: Varied Pavement Types

• Place RWIS units on varied pavement types: asphalt, concrete, brick, shady roads, sunny roads, bridges, overpasses, and higher/lower elevation

Option 3: Known Problem Areas

• Focus on known problem areas like key intersections, bridges, and inclines.

Option 4: Major City Locations

• City Hall
• Town Square
• Schools
• Parking Lots
• Retail Centers

Cost Effective

Historically, RWIS (Road Weather Information System) devices have been very expensive. Frost has created the first low-cost RWIS device that focuses on giving you more datapoints to better make snow and ice management decisions. Frost customers typically find the units pay for themselves after 2-3 winter weather events by better managing their resources, plows, and labor costs.
