Eliminate Ice Dams. Protect Your Investment.

The Science of Ice Dam Prevention

Ice dams form when heat loss melts snow on the upper roof, and the water then refreezes near the cold eaves and gutters, creating a barrier that pushes water back underneath the roof system. Viotell installs high-performance, self-regulating heat cables designed to maintain clear drainage paths, ensuring meltwater flows freely off the roof and eliminating the costly damage caused by ice dams.

Why Choose a Professional Heat Cable System?

Ice dam damage often leads to thousands in repairs, jeopardizing the roof, fascia, and interior. Our professional, engineered systems offer the only reliable defense against this severe winter threat. Prevents Structural Water Damage Actively melts ice at the eave line, preventing water from being forced under shingles, metal panels, and into wall cavities. Protects Gutters and Downspouts Keeps internal gutter channels clear and prevents heavy ice buildup that tears gutters away from the fascia board. Energy Efficient Operation We use high-quality, self-regulating cables that adjust heat output based on ambient temperature, conserving energy when it’s not needed. Seamless, Code-Compliant Installation Systems are installed by licensed electricians and metal specialists, ensuring compliance with all local codes and warranty requirements. Extends Roof & Fascia Lifespan Eliminates the stress and freeze-thaw damage that ice dams inflict on roofing materials and surrounding wood trim. Reduced Insurance Claims Proactive ice dam prevention dramatically lowers the risk of water damage, saving you money on future insurance deductibles and premiums.
