Gutters and downpipes de-icing

In the winter months, roof gutter systems face the onslaught of snow and freezing water, which deforms their construction and thus causes considerable financial costs for their repair. How to prevent it?
Winter is a huge burden for many buildings, with ice accumulating in gutters and downpipes.

Heating cables prevent the accumulation of snow on the roof in places where it is undesirable – at snow barriers, in roof gutters, eaves troughs etc. They provide protection against possible costly damage. Particularly, the heating cables are suitable to roof gutters and downspouts for roofs with insuffi cient thermal insulation, where even in severe frosts, snow melts, water fl ows into the gutter, freezes and forms an ice barrier. Subsequently, it begins to overfl ow and creates icicles, a romantic, yet undesirable and dangerous for pedestrians, "decoration" of roofs. MAPSV (single-core) and ADPSV (double-core) cables with full screen protection and jacket with protection against UV radiation, or self-regulating ELSR cables are intended for these applications.

Benefits 

  • safe entrance and exit from the building
  • maintenance-free operation
  • load relief on the roof structure
  • prevention of deformation of gutters and downpipes
  • energy efficient operation
