User questions & answers

Question:	What is the dilution rate for red brick pavers
Answer:	Yes. I think so. It's not going to clear a blizzard. But last winter I was facing a shoulder replacement and it did just what I needed preop when I had little arm function. I think if you just tilt it back a tad so edge does catch in the grass you should be able to remove enough snow for a path. It is very easy to use and I'm pleased with my purchase.
Question:	Does this product contain an inhibitor to prevent metal loss when using as a descaler
Answer:	About 8 inches then you use your own 3 prong extension cord. I have a 50 ft. Cord I use.
Question:	is this a good cleaner for trex deck
Answer:	Interesting question. Some suggestions: the device has a GreenWorks 4-year warranty with the standard disclaimers about abuse, etc. I would first call GreenWorks Helpline, 1-888-909-6757. The user manual discusses how to change some parts like the belt, impeller, and scraper, but nothing on the four vanes. The user manual also shows all parts and the vane is part no. 3410999A-10. I don't know if that is for all four or just one, but GreenWorks Helpline should be able to, well, help. Lastly, depending upon how the vanes are broken, you might be able to bolt some metal straps to them to hold them together as a temporary fix. Good luck!
Question:	Will this remove grout and haze in the tiny pores in my newly installed porcelain tile
Answer:	The Snapper SXDSS82 82V cordless snow shovel will only throw the snow forward, away from the unit.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this product safe for septic systems
Answer:	not sure...but I have had mine since 2016..Pretty well made...Im actually gonna use it today..
Question:	Does this work as well as muriatic acid on the scale inside the toilet
Answer:	I'm not that familiar with the surface of solar panels. To be safe, you need to check with a solar panel company. I successfully have used this Arctic Plow (with dense foam head) to move snow off of my vehicles with no damage to the paint or glass. I have found the Arctic Plow to work well on snow covered items. It will not work as well on ice which could cause damage the foam head.
Question:	Has anybody found an applicator refillable bottle to use on toilets with this product
Answer:	No, you cannot just buy the handle. But, the handle does screw off from the snow-broom. Hope this helps!
Question:	What type of acid is in Zep Acidic toilet bowl cleaner
Answer:	Yes, absolutely. I have brownstone metallic on my Silverado (new 2014) and have used the Artic Plow 6 or 7 times this season. Inspected the paint after first and second uses...no problems at all and no scratches. Would highly recommend.

User questions & answers

Question:	can I leave on for more than five minutes
Answer:	Wouldn’t recommend this product as it needs “soak” time to work. CLR should help you with that as it descaled our shower head pretty effectively. Besides the toilet, Zep might be ok for stained sinks or bathtubs if you can have it sitting in those with water for 10 minutes or so although the drain might get discolored if it’s not rubber,plastic or stainless steel.
Question:	is it safe to use on rust stained concrete
Answer:	Never had a need to remove the top; only to turn to open or close.
Question:	What is the pH
Answer:	I don't know but it won't hurt u i use it with my bare hands

Answer:	Absolutely. When used as directed, it won't disrupt or upset bacteria action in septic tanks.
