Roof Edge Heaters

Hotedge has the first only roof edge panel system to pass ul standards.

Roof edge heaters.

The well intended but obsolete methods of roof heating from the drip edge to well inside the wall line stem from an old school of thought. As more and more water freezes along the eaves ice builds up creating ice dams. They were installed from the eave edge in a zig zag fashion to provide a melt path through the developed ice dam to help prevent leaks. As the snow melts water runs down the roof and when it gets to the edge eaves of the roof which are cold it once again freezes.

Revolutionary design heats more roof surface with less heat trace cable. Our mats can be placed under asphalt shingles synthetic slate and shake and both standing seam and pro panel roofing giving you the continuous look to the roof edge. Exposed zig zag heater cables were the original attempt at ice dam abatement. The innovative roof snow and ice melting systems can reduce or eliminate property damage caused by the inability of roofs to drain water during winter months and extend the life of your roof.

70 less heat trace cable significant energy savings for both you and the enviroment. Heated roof systems offers you our exclusive patented technology that provides a concealed snow melt mat placed under various roofing material to eliminate ice dams. The hotedge rail fastens to the fascia beneath the metal drip edge on a roof providing a containment system for the heat cable. The hotedge rail is the first and only ul listed roof edge ice melt system in the u s this revolutionary new patent pending system is engineered to prevent icicles and ice dams from forming along the edge of most roof structures by pairing the hotedge rail with a 12 watt commercial grade self regulating heat cable.
