SolarThaw is the first car cover that uses solar energy to actively melt ice and snow. No outlet. No scraping. Just pull off a clean, dry cover and drive.
You wake up, bundle up, walk outside, and spend 15 miserable minutes chipping ice and brushing snow before your day even starts. Your hands are freezing. You're running late. And tomorrow, you get to do it all over again.
Ice bonds to glass overnight. Scraping damages wipers and takes forever.
Heavy snow on the roof, hood, and trunk. Brushing sends it down your jacket.
15 minutes per event, 40+ snow days a year. That's 10 hours of your winter, gone.
SolarThaw captures sunlight during the day and converts it to gentle, distributed heat that prevents ice from bonding and melts snow accumulation.
Flexible solar cells embedded in the cover harvest daylight energy and store it in an integrated battery. Heat activates automatically when temperatures drop.
Completely self-powered. Works in your driveway, a parking garage, an airport lot, or anywhere you park. True portability.
Not just the windshield. SolarThaw covers your entire vehicle, preventing ice and snow buildup on the roof, hood, trunk, and all glass.
When not heating, the solar system trickle-charges your car battery. Your vehicle stays ready through cold snaps that drain batteries overnight.
Drape SolarThaw over your vehicle when you park. Magnetic clips hold it secure against wind.
Solar cells charge during daylight. Heating elements activate as temperatures fall, preventing ice formation and melting snow as it lands.
Remove a clean, dry cover in the morning. Your car is clear. Fold SolarThaw into its carry bag and go.
