| If you have ever used a "snow melt sock" before, you know that they provide an inexpensive method for removing roof ice dams, preventing icy steps and improving your home's heating efficiency. Roof ice dams are an annoying source of roof damage, leaks, and heat loss in the winter. The main causes are drip melt from improperly capped warm air vent pipes and poor roof insulation. Laying a snow melt sock onto the roof so it crosses the ice dam and overhangs the gutter will melt through the snow and ice and create a channel for water to flow down into the gutters or off the roof. |
