Determine if anti-icing practices are in place at your project building or if your vendor is willing to adopt such practices. Consider the following tips.

Anti-icing is a proactive approach focusing on applying a small amount of liquid or pre-wet deicer before a storm, preventing snow and ice from bonding to the pavement. 
Pretreated or pre-wet materials are not as efficient as liquids for anti-icing; you need more material and they don’t track as well. They will work if applied at very low application rates immediately before the snow event.
It is better to use less than more. Over-application can cause slippery conditions because the wet deicer can form a slick coating on the ground. 
Anti-icing is often effective for heavy frosts as well as snow. 
Anti-icing works best when combined with accurate weather information, so that you know when to apply chemicals, and to what extent.
