Ice damming is a common occurrence during winter. When heat rises to the top of a poorly insulated attic, it melts any snow on the roof, causing water to run down and eventually form ice along the roof edge. Future snowmelt cannot make its way off the roof, which eventually causes water to seep underneath shingles and into the home.
Fortunately, you can count on Gutter Helmet® by Harry Helmet to provide a solution to ice damming. Here’s what Helmet Heat® can do.
About Helmet Heat®
This self-regulating gutter heating cable can be installed on both new and existing systems with a Gutter Helmet protection system. It melts snow and ice before they even have time to form, so water will simply go into your gutter system and down the downspouts. This heating component installs inside Gutter Helmet, the top alternative to a gutter screen in Millersville, Maryland.
Features and Benefits
Our patented heating system provides very efficient results thanks to these features.
- Self-Regulating Heat Cables – They come with an irradiated conductive core that automatically increases the amount of heat the system generates as the temperature drops. Conversely, they reduce their output when the temperature rises. Since these heavy-duty, commercial-grade cables operate on their own, you won’t have to monitor them.
- GFCI-Protected – Overheating will not be an issue with our ice reduction system, making it a safe choice for your home.
- Control Box Options – Helmet Heat features two durable and waterproof junction box options that allow you to choose the most convenient operation for you.
- Clean Design – The system is hidden during installation to keep your home’s exterior looking neat.
