Prime Wire & Cable RHC150W30 Roof & Gutter De-Icing Kit Roof Heating Cable

I use this on two stretches of my gutter that are prone to icing up.I laid this on top of the metal leaf screen on my gutter. Plugged it into a temperature controlled plug and let winter do it’s thing. Have only been through one winter season so far but it works great!Pretty much keeps the gutter free of snow and ice and we have not had an ice build up problem since.

Did what I needed and kept the damage to a minimum. Overall happy with my purchase.

Use this as a gutter and down spout de-icer...no more icicles forming that would drip water onto path ...which would freeze overvight.

Not too bad to install but you will have to climb a ladder to do it. You will also need outlets close to the gutters for easy plug in. If you run outlets into your attic space you can add an extension cord and put it on a timer. Other than that these work great to prevent ice dams.

The wire was very easy to install and it's been working now for a little over three years I believe. We got more snow this year than we have in the last 4 and it takes care of it quite well. We live in a duplex and I put the wire on my mom's side and this year we're going to get one for my side. So far I've had no problems at all. I would recommend this product to my friends.

I would have given the product 4 stars if not for the clips - they are very weak. The heating wire does what it is supposed to do but the clips keep coming loose and will not keep the heavy wire in place. I do not like climbing on the roof and having to do that again after the first snowstorm of the season was not pleasant.

Pretty happy with this heat cable. We have a gutter over our front porch that often fills up and freezes so additional runoff drips onto the granite step. Then that freezes causing a very unsafe situation. I snaked this heat tape along the gutter and through the downspout. It doesn't get hot, but it does get warm enough to eventually melt through the build-up of ice. The gutter is now empty and the downspout flows freely. Exactly what I wanted. Doesn't use a lot of electricity, but I still only plug it in as needed. Again, very pleased with this purchase.

I bought this when pouring concrete in freezing weather. After the concrete was poured, I snaked the heating cord over the concrete and covered it with a thermal blanket. I checked every few hours and it was creating a very nice even temperature.I used it a second time to clear a basement sewer pipe clogged with kitchen grease. I wrapped the drain pipe with the heater cord and let it heat up enough to clear out the standing water. Once the standing water was cleared, I used chemical sewer cleaner to dissolve the grease.I used it a third time to melt ice from my front porch steps. They were very slippery and dangerous and this cord prevented further ice buildup.

No era lo que esperaba

It's resolved our icing issue, will still need to get up and insulate the area better to permanently resolve it, but great tool to have on hand... have not noticed any significant rise in our electrical bill and gutter flows properly now and there is no more buildup above the evestrough on the roof because I ran a few courses of the cord on the roof before running it down through the gutter and downspout.

Local shopping proved the excellent value of my purchase on Amazon

Easy to install, seems well made, I will see how well it works this winter
