LowSlope® Roof Ice Melt System
Our unique LowSlope roof ice melt system is a very versatile profile designed for ice dam and icicle prevention on all flat or near-flat roofs, including metal roofing, built-up roofs, EPDM, PVC, APP and SBS roofing. It may also be customized to fit any plumb or square fascia with different roof slopes to accommodate special needs. An extended drip edge may be integrated into the Cover Panel to direct meltwater further away from the fascia, or act as an integrated cleat in a standing seam metal roof system.
Our exclusive design isolates the roof ice melt heating system from the fascia. This maximizes heat to the top melting surface, minimizes heat loss, and provides a very effective, energy-efficient roof edge ice melt system. The extended drip edge keeps runoff away from the fascia, making it easy to integrate a heated gutter system to safely carry the melt water through the downspouts system.
Installation is easy. The integrated Base Panel and heavy extrusion are first attached to the roof. Heater cables are then installed in the base. The Panel Cover interlocks with the base panel and has a finished painted surface or is pure copper. The system is then counterflashed by the roofing materials.
Select LowSlope for all your low pitch and flat roof projects where ice dam and icicle prevention is needed. Consider our PRO for 3/12 and steeper slopes, and our exclusive, Patent-pending PRO32™ for flatter slopes from 3/12 to 2/12.
