Wanted to do this for my driveway to prevent icing/snow buildup, but ran out
of time to finish the plans (I did have it mapped out, though). It was either
plan a wedding, or a driveway...
My thoughts were a) use antifreeze instead of water, and b) don't use a water
heater, but an old 1275 in a small shack on the side of the house (switched in
the garage with a remote starter and an on/off switch).
I was actually giving this some serious thought, too.
