Helmet Heat

If your roof has issues with ice dams, heat loss or other ice issues, Helmet Heat may be the solution to your headache. Helmet Heat utilizes self regulating heat tape that self adjusts to the temperatures outside. This system reduces ice at the edge of the roof which reduces the chance of ice dams, icicles and water damage. Heat cable will be run through the gutter helmet guards with one or two runs secured to the gutter helmet bracket system. An additional run is always run through the bottom of the gutter itself as well as any downspouts and valleys areas where extra snow and ice can accumulate. Benefits of Helmet Heat: Up to 50% more energy efficient than zig zag heat tape, Unsightly wire hidden inside of gutter helmet, more cost effective than zig zag heat tape, No more ice issues,  Water will go where it is supposed to (not through your roof).

Snow Retention

For certain homes, when a snow covered roof gets to a certain temperature, it can suddenly shed all of it's snow at once causing a roof avalanche! This can be extremely dangerous if you have kids, pets or cars that get caught under it at the wrong time. Snow retention systems help evenly distribute the snow on your roof and allow it to melt gradually… and safely!!

Ice Solutions — Frequently Asked Questions

What is Helmet Heat and how does it work?
Helmet Heat is a self-regulating heat cable system that adjusts its output to the outside temperature. Cable runs through the Gutter Helmet guard secured to the bracket system, with an additional run in the bottom of the gutter plus downspouts and roof valleys where snow and ice accumulate. The result is a continuous melt path at the roof edge, so water drains instead of backing up.
How is Helmet Heat better than zig-zag heat tape?
It is up to 50% more energy efficient than zig-zag heat tape and more cost effective to run, because self-regulating cable only draws power where and when it is cold. It is also hidden inside the Gutter Helmet cover instead of strung visibly across your shingles.
Will Helmet Heat stop ice dams and icicles?
It dramatically reduces them. By keeping the roof edge, gutter and downspout path open, meltwater leaves the roof the way it should instead of refreezing into a dam and forcing water back under the shingles — which is what causes the interior water damage ice dams are known for.
What is snow retention and do I need it?
On some roofs a snow load releases all at once — a roof avalanche that is genuinely dangerous over a walkway, driveway, or anywhere kids, pets or cars end up. Snow retention distributes the snow evenly across the roof so it melts gradually and safely. We flag roofs that are candidates during the evaluation.
Can Helmet Heat be added to gutters I already have?
Yes. Helmet Heat integrates with the Gutter Helmet cover and bracket system, so it can be installed alongside a new gutter cover project or added to an existing Gutter Helmet installation. Financing is available and you can qualify online or by phone in less than 10 minutes.
