Last winter I noticed that our neighbor had something on his roof that helped melt the snow (it left a triangle pattern on the edge of the roof). I had no clue what it was until a few weeks ago when I cam across a roof de-icer online. I showed it to Saeed and we decided to purchase one since last winter our front entry got had really bad ice build up. Saeed bought one this morning and we got it installed today. Our ladder wasn't tall enough for him to get up high enough to make the zig zag triangle pattern, but we got the cords laid in the gutter and the downspout. I hope it is enough to keep the gutters flowing and help prevent the huge build up of ice/icesicles we had last year. If it works properly is should save us a lot of time shoveling the front entry and breaking up the ice.
Saeed made me nervous on the ladder since it really wasn't tall enough and he had to stand on the shelf that wasn't meant for standing. The gutters were full of silt and muck so he cleaned them out while he was there and we ended up with several pounds of gross muck in a plastic bag. Guess we should probably clean out the back & side gutters sometime soon.
