How it works

A mechanical warning system that can't fail to a power outage.

No batteries. No Wi-Fi. No software. IceAlert uses a bimetallic indicator — the same proven technology inside industrial thermostats — to reveal a blue only when the potential for ice actually exists.

1

Install at every exit

Mounts in minutes with included hardware. Wall, post, or existing structure. One person, one screwdriver, one sign per door. No electrical, no commissioning.

2

Full blue at 32°F

The bimetallic indicator mechanically reveals a bright blue warning the moment surfaces approach freezing. Visible from any angle, in any light, day or night.

3

A live, visual warning

Staff notices the signal, applies salt or sand, and logs the action. Every freezing event becomes a documented response — exactly what surveyors, carriers, and lawyers want to see.

The Math

One slip-and-fall claim pays for every sign you'll ever install.

Slip-and-fall is the single most common premises liability claim across healthcare, retail, warehousing, and education. Most operators have never priced the alternative.

$64k

Average cost of a single commercial slip-and-fall claim, before settlement and legal fees.

$1M

Emergency room visits each year in the U.S. caused by slip-and-fall injuries on ice and snow.

$189

Cost of one IceAlert sign. 2-year warranty, 7+ year service life. No batteries, no subscription.

FOR ROADWAYS & BRIDGES

The Bluestar System® - for drivers, not just pedestrians.

IceAlert's original roadway application. Temperature-sensitive reflectors mount on standard guideposts and act as normal delineators — until temperatures approach freezing. Then they turn blue, alerting drivers to black ice before they hit it.



Used by DOTs, counties, and bridge authorities on overpasses, off-ramps, and known trouble spots. Free site design assistance included.
