Stop ice dams before they start with this RoofMate heating cable system! The 87-foot cable delivers 7 watts per foot and automatically adjusts its heat output based on temperature - colder weather means more heat, milder conditions mean less energy use. This self-regulating technology means you save on energy costs since it only works as hard as needed. Swiss-manufactured with 100% quality control and ETL certified for safety, it comes with a 5-year warranty for peace of mind. The cable can be overlapped during installation without overheating risks, and it works on all roof types except wood (perfect for asphalt, metal, rubber, or flat roofs). The illuminated plug lets you know when it's functioning, and the 10-foot cold lead makes installation straightforward. By creating drainage paths for melted snow and ice, it prevents the ice dams that can cause roof leaks and damage. Whether you're dealing with harsh winters or occasional freezing conditions, this system protects your home from costly ice-related damage while being energy-efficient enough to run without breaking the bank on electricity bills.
