Currently, few conventional solutions exist that use electricity to produce and conduct heat. Traditionally, this was due to limited circuit designs. Traditional solutions were unable to produce sufficient heat over a sufficient surface area to be practical. The traditional solutions that did exist required special electrical circuits with higher voltages and protected by higher rated breakers. These special electrical circuits are often unavailable at a construction site. Thus using conventional standard circuits, conventional solutions are unable to produce sufficient heat over a sufficiently large surface area to be practical. Typically, 143 BTUs are required to melt a pound of ice. Conventional electrically powered solutions are incapable of providing 143 BTUs over a sufficiently large enough area for practical use in the construction industry. Consequently, the construction industry has turned to bulky, expensive, time consuming heated fluid solutions.
