Frost Protection for Gutters and Downpipes

Frozen GutterInstalling a frost protection solution could prevent a range of serious problems. Melting and refreezing of ice can damage roofs and gutters, icicles can form and fall potentially causing personal injury, standing water can leek through interior walls and furnishings.

Intelligent Frost Protection based weather conditionsA self-regulating heating system can prevent these problems by stopping build up of ice & snow on roofs, atria, in gutters and drainpipes through automatically increasing its heat output in icy water and decreases its output in dry air. The system can by apply to all roof materials including wood, plastic, asphalt and metal, as well as metal or plastic gutters and would not only provide intelligent protection but also generate substantial energy savings.

The technology is most efficient when it incorporates a smart heat management unit that determines when and how to activate the system based on temperature and humidity readings. Controlling the level of heat based on environmental factors can produce energy savings up to 75% when compared to ordinary non-intelligent heating technologies.
