  • A waterproofing sealant should be used wherever screws penetrate the gutter or fascia.
  • Attachment clips should be anchored to the fascia/ gutter edge with fasteners or adhesive suited for the roof and the weather.
  • Refer to the Thermon RGS Design Guide (download opposite) to determine appropriate heating cable lengths required for gutters and downspouts.
  • Where large roof areas will be present above the heating cable a snow fence should be installed to prevent damage to the cable from sliding snow and ice.
  • A waterproofing sealant should be used wherever screws penetrate the roof or fascia.
  • Attachment clips should be anchored to the roof/fascia with fasteners or adhesive suited for the roof and the weather.
  • Refer to the Thermon RGS Design Guide (download opposite) to determine appropriate roof heating cable lengths required, as well as spacing pitch required for various roof overhang distances and roofing types.

    Roof design, roof size, gutter and downspout locations and number of sides of a typical, peaked roof to be protected from snow and ice needed to be considered. T&D can provide expert technical support and design services for roof and gutter trace heating systems – the length of the roofline does not determine length of heating cables required. Thermon RGS self-regulating trace heating cables increase power output as temperatures falls to provide guaranteed frost protection of roofs and gutters. Nominal Power Output at 0✬ (32✯) : In snow & ice – 12 w/ft (39 w/m).Minimum Cable Bend Radius : At -15✬ 10mm at -60✬ 32mm.Circuit Protection : 30mA ground fault protection required.The heating cables prevent ice dams from forming on inclined roofs, in gutters and in downspouts – roof de-icing cables should not be used as a general snow-melting system to clear roofs from ice and snow build-up in winter.

Call 54 to get an estimate. That last feature is a big deal! Most heat cables are either ‘on’ or ‘off’, which can result in needlessly high electrical bills if the temperatures rise and the system is still running. An energy efficient design that self-regulates its temperature.Conveniently plugs into a standard outlet.An outer jacket made of UV-resistant, rugged polyolefin for maximum durability.A high quality design with a 16-gauge tinned-copper wire core and a second layer of braided tinned-copper mesh to effectively distribute heat throughout the wires.The company we found and are recommending to our customers is only available online, but it offers some impressive benefits, including: There are heat cables sold in big box stores, but many of those options are poorly made and are not energy efficient. Our research led us to heat cables (aka heat tape) that can be easily installed along the edges of roofs as well as in gutters and downspouts. So we set out to find a solution that would prevent ice dams from forming in the first place.
