You’ve been getting by just fine all these years with just a shovel and some good old fashioned hard work, so why do you need a snow blower this year? Actually there are quite a few reasons, and some of them may surprise you!

• Obviously, shoveling snow takes a lot longer than using a snow blower. By taking advantage of the speed offered by a quality snow blower, you will be able to spend more quality time with your family this winter.
• You’ll spend less time outside in the cold.
• You’re a guy (most likely) and a snow blower is a power tool. Need we say more?

Shovelling snow can kill you! Research has shown that the number of heart attacks increase significantly after heavy snowfalls. This is because people that are not used to intense physical activity are out there jumping right into shovelling snow — which can be considered fairly intense. When coupled with the risk of hypothermia and increased strain caused by the cold air, shovelling snow can be downright dangerous!
