When winter sun melts snow and ice, it starts forming icicles on cold roof edges and gutters which over time can cause serious damage to the building and constitute a danger for vehicles and passerby. First of all, in order to avoid all above manual ice removal heating cables should be installed in all drains such as gutter valleys, gutters and downpipes. Frost protection of the roof itself is required where such problems can exist, e.g:
- on south-faced eaves
- under skylights/roof windows
- 1 ÷1.5 m lower the roof for older houses, e.g. with heated attics and
- on roofs where snow loads typically exceed the capacity of the existing roof construction.
The ice removal heating cables are installed by means of roof gutter clips with hinge presented here.
