As a company that specializes in rain gutters, we consider every element that can cause them damage. Our Ice Melt system effectively prevents ice and snow built up, prevents structural damage to your home, and stops the build up of roof water that can cause your roof to leak. The culprit in gutter and roof damage originates from ice dams. Ice dams are ridges of ice that form along gutters and roof edges. These ice ridges keep melting snow and debris from draining off your roof properly. If you do not have an Ice Melt system in place, you may be forced to deal with the costly repairs of a leaking roof and water damage to the walls in your home. The two most vital components of our Ice Melt system are Cables and Panels.
Cables
Our heating cables are an effective and safe way to melt snow off your roof edges and rain gutters. These heating cables are self-regulating so your home can remain energy efficient. Our heating cables are a perfect match for the rain gutters we offer. Any of our rain gutter systems will work in harmony with these cables. These heat cables are versatile enough to use not only in your rain gutter, but in the downspout as well. This will ensure that all areas where snow can collect and cause blockage is taken care of. We understand that each home is unique, therefore, if there are any areas on your home that have a pattern of snow build up, we can easily install the cables in that location as well.
Panels
Heat panels enhance the heating cables that lie beneath. Our heat panels add to the aesthetic of your home, while creating an energy efficient protective system against snow build up. These panels will not interfere with any previous or needed rain gutter installation. Having heat panels in addition to your rain gutter actually creates added protection to your home. Snow and ice build up can damage your the roof and walls of your home. These panels eliminate that build up by melting snow and ice and allowing the water to flow through your rain gutter properly. Investing in our heat panels will save you time and money in costly repairs and add to the value of your home. Call us if you have any questions about installing these panels, our experts will know what your home needs to stay protected.
