Frost Removal

CCBuilder

Any thoughts on how to get the frost out of the ground. Working on a 3500 addition with 30ft ceilings and need to get the frost out of the ground ASAP. The area is hard to heat with the high ceilings and the 2100ft footprint first level. Think torpedo heaters would create too much condensation.

Is this so you can pour crete? There are a few variations of this on the market:

or
http://www.powerblanket.com/
They are pricy so you might check to see if you can rent.

I've got the 10x10 powerblanket and it's been amazing! I use it to keep my sand dethawed. As soon as I got it I put it on a sand pile that had been sitting in sub -12 celcius temps, and it was no longer frozen overnight. I did put a second regular tarp on top, mostly just to disguise it though!
