I have read on a council website or two (whilst googleing salt suppliers), that it is highly unlikely that you will get sued for clearing snow/ice, in fact they encourage it.

Hi
    The problem is that by salt/gritting you are changing the condition of the floor and it would be your fault if anyone slips on that floor.I am not saying to work and not spread salt/grit just that you change the condition of the floor its your fault.by useing wfp your changing the condition aswell.

MATT yes the ice will melt,and nobody should fall/slip your right,nobody sues anybody its a perfect world.I never said its wrong to work and to salt/grit it was just a piont veiw but you seem a bit on the defence on this piont which is fine.

I warm the water in my van tank by having in it a 300w aquarium heater set to 20 degrees C which gets switched on every evening. Also it gets filled with water from my warmed IBC first.
It's a game of three halves!
