Roof Edge Heaters

Key advantages of hotedge roof ice melt systems.

Roof edge heaters.

Our mats can be placed under asphalt shingles synthetic slate and shake and both standing seam and pro panel roofing giving you the continuous look to the roof edge. The well intended but obsolete methods of roof heating from the drip edge to well inside the wall line stem from an old school of thought. Heated roof systems offers you our exclusive patented technology that provides a concealed snow melt mat placed under various roofing material to eliminate ice dams. Heat your roof edges warmzone offers several roof heating systems that are designed to eliminate icicles ice dams and snow at the roof s edge.

Exposed zig zag heater cables were the original attempt at ice dam abatement. Snow starts to melt in certain areas of the roof which are warmer than others due to heat loss from the attic. The hotedge rail fastens to the fascia beneath the metal drip edge on a roof providing a containment system for the heat cable. 70 less heat trace cable significant energy savings for both you and the enviroment.

They were installed from the eave edge in a zig zag fashion to provide a melt path through the developed ice dam to help prevent leaks. Hotedge has the first only roof edge panel system to pass ul standards. As more and more water freezes along the eaves ice builds up creating ice dams. The hotedge rail is the first and only ul listed roof edge ice melt system in the u s this revolutionary new patent pending system is engineered to prevent icicles and ice dams from forming along the edge of most roof structures by pairing the hotedge rail with a 12 watt commercial grade self regulating heat cable.
