Easy Heat De-Icer worksDecember 30, 2008 W. Ullmann(Ft. Morgan, CO) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I had a problem with ice dams on my roof. The Snow melts above and when the water reaches the eaves part of the roof it freezes and causes a dam of ice which causes problems. The easy heat roof cables solved this problem. You just turn it on when the air temperature is between 15 and 35 degrees and it heats that part of the roof which keeps the ice from building up. I found it fairly easy to install, although I needed assistance with part of it. There are good instructions and plenty of parts to complete the job.
Snow melt cableDecember 17, 2008 S. Ashcraft(Lake Tahoe) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
With 12+ inches of snow on the roof and 20 degree temps I turned on the cables for the first time. To my amazement, the snow is melting and running down the gutter! Seems to work as stated, I don't anticipate any ice dams this year!! I have a wood shake roof, not easy to attach cables. I used roofing nails through the clips.

Shingle clips need helpNovember 3, 2008 Gordo(Rocky Mountains) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I haven't had to turn these on yet but have a similar cable over our garage that has worked well since we moved in 4 years ago. However the clips that attach to the shingles do not hold and the cable migrated to the gutter. Having just installed addition cable on my and neighbors roofs I used silicone and nails through the clip to secure it. We'll see how it holds this winter.

I purchased twoEasy Heat 100-Foot Roof De-Icing Cable #ADKS-500 via Amazon.com and received them in a few days after the order. They are exactly what I was looking for and at a better price then I could find locally. Installed within a few days and they work perfectly.
