Looking for a reco for a snow blower for my new deck
Original Message Nov 18, 2011 2:13 pm

New Hampshire winter. 34'x12' deck. Own a big Ariens for the the driveway, looking for an alternate for the deck. Will need to clear deck, roof rake pulled down roof snow, and clear again. Prefer gas powered. Thanks

I also have to rake the snow from the roof onto the back deck, and falling about 8 feet packs it pretty well. Up to now I installed 9 foot ramps over the stairs so I can drive the 24" 2 stage up onto the deck. This summer I snagged a little ss that I am rehabbing. I'll let you know how it works on the packed stuff.

My deck is 16 x 28 and although it has a roof, a lot of snow blows in from the 3 sides, I keeep my SS Craftsman parked on my deck all winter.. My railing is before code so is only 30 inches high. I blow the snow out on 28 foot back side.

What exactly is your deck made of ? TREX ? Chemically Impregnated Southern Yellow Pine ? Western Red Cedar ? Something Else ?
