Radiant Roof Heating Solutions
Why Install
a Roof Deicing System?
Roof heating
systems eliminate prolonged ice damming that can cause
moisture to seep through roofing materials into roof
decking before finding its way inside, damaging
interiors and resulting in mold growth. Warmzone
radiant roof deicing systems are an
excellent solution for melting snow and ice from roof
eaves, valleys, and even entire roofs.
Radiant
heated roof and gutter melt systems can dramatically
enhance the life span of your roof and protect it
from damage caused by heavy snow and ice
accumulation. Warmzone roof deicing systems can be
customized to accommodate just about any roof type and
configuration. Both electric roof heat and
hydronic roof heating systems are available.
Warmzone
looks at each structure and challenge individually
without assuming one system will be the optimal
solution to every project. A valued roof deicing
system is based on its cost, performance and
aesthetics. Based on your budget and needs we will
maximize your investment to the best working
radiant heat system possible. (A large
assortment of roof
heating options are available to choose
from.)
Older
buildings are a visible testament to the damaging
effects of roof ice and snow that can destroy
fronts, roofs, drainpipes, and gutters. Roofs that
have substandard support structures, and such
shortcomings can enable water to enter the
building. As technology improves insulation value,
there is less heat gain from inside of the building,
causing an increased hazard of ice damage and
damming on the roof. Once winter frost sets in,
damage is often inevitable. Flat roofs on industrial
buildings often give in to excessive weight loads
generated by accumulations of ice and snow. This
can be prevented by installing a quality heated roof and
gutter
deicing system, eliminating potential
damage from snow and ice buildup.

| Eliminate the
accumulation of snow and ice by heating your
entire roof. This is not a very common
application, but definitely possible
and very effective. While most structures in
cold climates that receive moderate to
heavy snowfall feature steep roof grades, some
with flatter roofs need more comprehensive roof
heating. Heating the entire roof can
be extremely beneficial because it eliminates
snow and ice buildup and prevents
roofs from being damaged because of too
much weight.

Ice dams are typically
the most problematic areas of roofs in
cold-weather climates. When the temperature in
the attic is above freezing, it can
cause the snow on the roof to melt and trickle
down the roof valleys. When it hits
the colder eaves, it refreezes. You
can eliminate this threat by installing roof
heat in your roof valleys. Our roof
deicing systems are versatile and can heat
almost any size or shaped area to fix
ice buildup on roofs and prevent
potential damage.

Applying radiant heat to
the roof edges is the most common
application for our radiant roof deicing
systems. The attractive RoofHeat
Panels systems feature self-regulating heat
cable that is channeled into an
aluminum panel that is designed for maximum heat
transfer. You can also install the thin,
low-voltage heating element discreetly
under your roofing to provide heat for the roof
eaves and prevent heavy snow from
accumulating.

Radiant roof heating and
ice melting cables can be used to melt ice
in gutters, protecting the structural integrity
of your roof. Existing roofs can
easily be retrofitted with these radiant heating
cables to prevent icicles, ice buildup, and ice
dams. Radiant roof heating systems not
only enhance safety, but also protect structures
and enhance the lifespan of your roof. Learn
