Trace Heating - Snow and Ice Removal for Gutters and Roofs
Trace heating systems are specified to prevent the build up of snow and ice in gutters and on roofs.
Melt water which cannot drain away will form pools which in turn can penetrate seams and joints in gutters and flat roofs. A leaking gutter or roof can cause extensive damage within buildings. Trace heating cables create a flow path for the water allowing it to drain away correctly.
Trace heating overcomes the dangers posed by heavy snow build up and icicles on roofs. The weight of the snow can cause structural problems as well as being a danger to people below.
Self regulating trace heating cables for roof and gutters improve public safety against the dangers presented by icicle formation and snow avalanches.
Trace Heating Applications : Roof & Gutter Heating : Lead and copper gutter heating, drainpipe heating, roof valley heating and trace heating to roof overhangs.
