Introduction
From preventing costly damage to roofs, gutters, and interiors to reducing weight loads and eliminating the danger of falling icicles, discover the 5 reasons that you need NeverFreeze® roof and gutter heating systems on your home.
Prevent Damage to Roofs, Gutters, and Interiors
It's a matter of physics. Snow melts, and water seeps under your roof tiles. After that, it freezes and expands, pushing the tiles away from the undersurface and into the wood below. Expansion pressure forces the ice into cracks and seams, widening the gaps. Further, the water thaws and flows into the wood structure and ceilings below the roof and, very often, inside your house. Leaks or an eventual collapse can follow.
You might even lose access to affected rooms and suffer damage to electronics and furniture. Subsequent repairs can cost thousands of dollars. If that doesn't sound bad enough, water in gutters also freezes and expands, which causes gutters to burst apart.
NeverFreeze® roof and gutter heating cables attached to your roof will clear the way for water to flow down the pitch of the roof as intended. With this, little water will remain to freeze, and ice dams won't form.
Reduce the Weight Load on Your Roof
As a rule of thumb, snow weighs 1.25 pounds per inch of depth per square foot of the roof. So, a 2,000-square-foot roof with 20 inches of snow on it would carry a load of approximately 50,000 pounds! Additionally, ice accumulation will add to this strain.
Perennial strain can eventually lead to catastrophic property damage, liabilities and financial loss.
NeverFreeze® roof and gutter heating cables aid in melting snow and reducing the weight load on your roof, preventing disasters that can leave your home severely damaged.
Eliminate the Danger of Falling Icicles
Heavy icicles are an accident waiting to happen. As they thaw, they fall from high points on the house. This routinely causes damage to property and potential legal liabilities. Icicles can drop on your porch, decorations, or family car. Moreover, they can cause a dangerous injury if someone were to be hit by one of these frozen projectiles.
NeverFreeze® roof and gutter heating cables prevent icicle formation by ensuring the flow of water into gutters. Learn more about the dangers of falling icicles and how to prevent them here.
Greater Safety than Manual Snow Removal Methods
If you've ever climbed up on your roof with a shovel or snow rake to clear snow from your roof and came down safely, count yourself lucky. One slip and fall, and you can suffer severe injury.
Additionally, using the wrong tools to clear snow can still heavily damage your roof tiles.
There is no need to take these chances. With NeverFreeze® roof and gutter heating cables, you'll never have to risk injury! Learn more about snow melting systems for driveways and walkways and how they can help keep you safe here.
Reasonable Installation Costs
Because NeverFreeze® systems are energy efficient, the energy cost to run them is relatively low during the winter months. Temperature self-regulating systems can use sensors and controllers to adjust heat output based on outside temperatures and keep energy usage down. What's more, because there are no moving parts, they require almost no maintenance cost.
Considering the risk of loss from water damage, roof collapse, falling icicles or snow-clearing accidents, these are reasonable insurance premiums to pay for peace of mind.
Conclusion
Protect your home and ensure those moments of joy and warmth last for winters to come. Install ThermoSoft NeverFreeze® roof and gutter heating cables soon.
