Works There is also a thermostat for this (Roof Sentry Control Product #52-2599-0) that should reduce you energy consumption and turn on when needed. The on thing you have to make sure it to buy it long enough to allow for the triangle pattern while laying it out. I leave it installed all year around ofcourse and just plug it in during winter and spring; I plug it in when it warms up (sunny days) and in the spring (basically when ice/snow melts and can create a overhang once it re-freezes) November 8, 2012

Does the job I installed this on two roof areas, one with a skylight. I ran it through the troughs and down spouts. I connected the max length recommended for a 12 amp circuit. This took about five hours to install and is painless. Plan your entire routing well before you start! I did also buy the controller but after a couple of snow falls I notice that it never turned on the cables and so I simply by passed it and plug the cables in manually when needed. Perhaps I'll try the controlled again sometime... The cables are good at melting small channels to allow subsequent water to flow off of the roof through. Don't expect to see much snow disappear from the roof. January 21, 2012

protect your roof great to prevent ice dams not strong enough to melt snow but they keep a channel free for the water to run so it doesn't get under the roof December 29, 2009

Great product I have installed a couple of these. They do a great job of melting any ice biuldup on my roof. I plug it in only when I need it to prevent any roof damage. March 31, 2008
