For the first time ever, homeowners in the Greater Boston area can take advantage of low cost green building energy efficient roof ice prevention and melting systems that are about to revolutionize the roofing industry in Northern climates.
HotEdge patented and patent pending roof transfer and cable containment system products, soon to be the only UL APPROVED system, direct thermal energy to the roof edge, roof valleys and drip lines. Ideal for existing roofs and new roof construction with products for all types of roofs, these systems effectively promote ice melt drainage and prevent refreezing, ice dams and icicle formation that damage roofs, siding and interior structures.
HotEdge Rail is a patent pending energy efficient green building ice melt system that is ideal for existing roofs and new construction. It is UL-approved for roof and gutter deicing and effectively prevents ice dam formation and melting snow from refreezing. This energy efficient affordable product for most roof types offers simple and fast installation year round and requires no roof cutting or penetration. It is easily installed with only minor modifications to most asphalt shingle and composite or shake roof structures and can retrofit most metal roofs.
HotEdge Rail fastens to the fascia beneath the metal drip edge on a roof where heat is directly transferred to the roof edge through the use of a 12-watt commercial grade self-regulating cable. It is reliable, easy to maintain and is backed by a 10-year limited warrantee. HotEdge Rail aesthetically blends with roof architecture through multiple color selections.
HotShingle is specifically designed for new or existing asphalt shingle roofs. This patent-pending product prevents ice dams and icicles from forming on the roof edge through a HotSheet panel, HotEdge Rail and 12-watt commercial grade self-regulating cable that work together to conduct thermal energy. The system fastens to the fascia over existing shingles and creates a metal drip edge that prevents ice dams, icicles and refreezing of melted snow. This energy efficient affordable product offers simple and fast installation year round and requires no roof cutting, modification, shingle removal or penetration of the roof deck. It is reliable, easy to maintain and is backed by a 10-year limited warrantee. HotShingle aesthetically blends with roof architecture through multiple color selections.
HotValley for existing or new asphalt and metal roofs is designed to prevent refreezing of melted snow in roof valleys and reduce snow loads. It is used in combination with HotEdge or HotShingle roof edge products to promote efficient drainage down roof valleys and prevent refreezing with icicle formation on roof eaves. This energy efficient system consists of a metal track containing one or two runs of commercial-grade 12-watt self-regulating heat cable. It requires no roof modification, no penetration of the roof deck and attaches with a high quality polyurethane adhesive. This reliable product is protected from UV light and sliding or shifting snow/ice to ensure longevity and is backed by a 10-year limited warranty. HotValley offers easy maintenance and multiple color choices to aesthetically blend with existing roof architecture.
HotSeam is specifically designed to create melt pathways to the roof’s edge on existing standing-seam metal roofs. It is used in combination with HotEdge Rail to prevent melting ice from refreezing and creating ice dam and icicle formation on the roof eaves. Through this energy efficient green building product, commercial-grade 12-watt self-regulating heat cable is pressed along the seam against existing metal roof panel and is secured by retention device clamps. HotSeam requires no cutting, penetration, roof clips or modification of existing roofing material. It is protected from UV light and sliding or shifting snow/ice to ensure longevity and is backed by a 10-year limited warrantee. Other features include easy maintenance and multiple color choices to aesthetically blend with existing roof architecture.
