Calibration

Document and Verify How Much Material Is Spread by Equipment

All equipment used for anti-icing or deicing activities should be calibrated before each season and after relevant repairs. Calibration documents how much product, granular or liquid, comes out at various settings and allows for intentional use of materials at desired application rates.
