“It was hard not to do it the old way,” Tyler recounts. “But we stuck with it, and it saved us, at a minimum, 80 tons of salt. 5–6 thousand dollars' worth of salt. Which equals out to about a year’s subscription on Wx Horizon.” 

“With what we saved in the January winter event, and not sending our fleet out for that round of treatment, it speaks for itself. We were able to pay for one year of the system’s subscription from the savings in salt on that one day.”
