For a couple of years now I've used a Sno Pro with extension handle to remove snow from my array. It took awhile and usually it was in nasty weather. So I decided to bolt a few together to make a wider broom.

Attached are some pics. Works great if the snow is not too deep. If deep snow I have to go back to the single wide.

    Up here (Canuk North) , I modified a "Snow Rake" by adding a "rubber" overhead door bottom rain defection strip . Rake bought @ Home Hardware , rubber & aluminum low profile book screw's found & adapted. In the summer I use this rubber strip & the rake to hank a small line that sprays glass cleaner / water & the rubber as a squeegee to remove the pollen / bird markings.
