Preventing the formation of ice dams is easy, you just need to keep the entire roofing system at the same temperature as the eaves. One way to do that is through increasing ventilation, adding insulation, and sealing off every area that is prone to leaking. Another way to do it is through Helmet Heat.
In this post, we discuss why it’s the proven solution to ice dams.
Helmet Heat: The Proven Ice Dam Solution
Gutter Helmet of Northern Minnesota installs gutter protection systems that reduce ice dam formation. Helmet Heat is an exclusive, self-regulating, Gutter Helmet heating device that is designed to prevent ice and snow build-up. It does this by melting snow and ice before it gets the chance to form onto your roof. Once the snow and ice melts, it simply flows into your gutters, downspouts, and away from your house.

Helmet Heat is specially designed to fit the Gutter Helmet system, which can be installed on various types of gutters in Grand Rapids MN, or anywhere in the local area.
