How Does Roofing Heat Tape Work?
When heat tape is installed on your roof and in your gutters you will no longer be the victim of ice buildup on the eaves of your roof nor ice dams blocking the flow of water through your gutters. Heat tape is an electrified cable installed in a zig-zag pattern along your roofline and in single or double stripes in your gutters that heat up when electricity is applied. This constant, low-level heat keeps the eaves clear of snow and ice and your gutters open to drain water away.
