Why install roof and gutter heat trace systems

The purpose of installing a roof and gutter heat trace is to protect your home or business during the winter. The accumulation of snow is really unavoidable during the winter months in Alberta. What the roof heat trace will do is protect your pipes, tanks, vessels and other equipment from getting frozen. The heat trace covers the equipment to keep it from breaking and to maintain the temperatures inside the pipes. This helps you enjoy warm water at all times. When it comes to gutters, they get filled with snow and ice. So the melted snow can't find its way through the gutters and out the downspouts. What we do is place a gutter heat trace cable to create a small path so that the melted water can find its way out. In a different case, it might find its way into your property and cause significant damage.
