NeverFreeze Roof & Gutter Cable FAQ

Can the cable be left out all year long?
The cable can be left on the house. However, it should not be operated above 50°F (10°C).Shop Now
How long will it take for the snow to melt?
Our cable starts heating once it is connected to electricity. If the system is turned on at the beginning of the snowfall, it will prevent accumulation and ice formation.Shop Now
Do I need to install the cable over my entire roof?

Does it need a thermostat or controller?

How much power does the system use?
The power output will depend on how much cable your project will require. For help determining your system’s power usage, call us at (800)308-8057.Shop Now
How much does the system cost to operate?
Many factors will determine the cost to operate your snow melting system. Total watts, kilowatts, kilowatt rate, hours spent operating, and remaining lag time will each play a role. Each project will vary so it is wise to keep lag time in mind when the system remains on to avoid refreezing. Electrical rates differ depending on location and time of day. For a more personalized estimation, call a ThermoSoft agent at (800)308-8057.Shop Now
What happens if the cable is damaged during the installation?
If the cable is damaged, please call us immediately at (800)308-8057 and we can assist you further.Shop Now
May I overlap the heating cable?
No, overlapping heating cables is never advised and will cause severe damage to your system. Always make sure you meet the spacing requirements. Also, never test the system when it is coiled or overlapped on itself. This can cause overheating and damage to your system.Shop Now
Can I use it if there is already snow or ice on my roof or gutter?
It is recommended only to install the cable during dry conditions. The system will work as snow and ice accumulates, so it is not advised to add the cable to existing dams and snow.Shop Now
What is the voltage?
Our cables come in either 120 Volts or 240 Volts. The voltage you need depends on how much space you are covering. Our experts can help you choose which is right for you.Shop Now
Why not just manually take the snow off the roof?
Manually removing snow can be dangerous and ineffective. Our systems are designed to melt the snow and ice as it develops, helping to avoid buildup. By treating the problem as it arises, a clear channel is continually open for water to escape. This helps prevent problems that could have already developed once snow and ice has accumulated and someone removes it manually. Also, our system automatically detects and adjusts its reactions accordingly and continuously once it’s turned on. You won’t have to keep running out during every snowfall or cold spell. Just lay the cable out and let it work for you.Shop Now
