I definitely think it would do well around a fire hydrant. It did really well with fresh snow that was about 4" deep. The piles of snow that were closer to a foot high took a couple of passes to clear.
@@ADarlingLife ya I was wondering because I'm seeing a lot of TV news clips with reporters and firemen asking people to clear snow piled up around fire hydrants. It's heavy work so most people don't do it. In the videos where people are doing it, they're doing it the same way it was done 100 years ago, manually with a digging shovel or scoop shovel. I find it curiously strange that there isn't a better way to do it by now so I was wondering if the electric shovels or that paddle broom would make the job easier.
can that be used to clear snow piled up around a fire hydrant?
