In this research, a buried type snow-melting tank with low cost and maintenance was developed. By the questionnaire survey conducted in new town areas in Nagaoka and Akita, it is clarified that there is the necessity of an individual snow removal method for residential houses. The new snow-melting tank developed here consists of a reinforced concrete box, an electric snow-melting mat and draining pumps. The prototype model was installed to the residential house in Nagaoka City and its performance was examined. As a result, the snow supplied to this equipment was melt and drained certainly and the effectiveness was validated.
