WI-IceDamSolutions.com is the premier provider for ice dam prevention products in southeastern Wisconsin. We are the SOURCE for Bylin Engineered Systems ROOF ICE MELT products. The RIM products use a self regulating heat cable (also known as a heat tape) which is routed through an aluminum panel for maximum heat distribution. The panels increase the effectiveness of the heat cable by maximizing its efficiency. These systems can be installed as a retro-fit or on new construction. They are completely safe (UL listed) and effective at reducing or eliminating roof ice and gutter ice and ice dams. Our extensive experience with ice dam formation means we can design a system that can meet your requirements and budget.

Understanding Roof Ice Problems
Ice dams and icicles occur as a result of:
- Snow buildup on the roof
- Heat loss from the building
- Through insulation
- Through chimneys
- Through roof vents
- Winter temperature fluctuations – freeze/thaw cycles
- Solar heating during winter days with below freezing nights
As roof snow accumulation increases, ice dam and icicle formation likewise increase. Subsequent water ponding can lead to roof leaks, internal building damage and possible mold issues. Falling icicles can create lower roof damage, deck damage and people safety issues.
The Winter process
- Winter storms build up snow on the roof.
- Heat from the building (through insulation, chimneys, and roof vents) and from the sun (solar gain) causes roof snowmelt.
- Melted snow runs down roof lines to valleys and eaves.
- The melted snow refreezes at the base of the valleys and at the roof eaves.
- As day/night time temperatures cycle up and down, the ice dams and icicles continue to grow.
- Icicles cause 'people and property safety' concerns.

Please visit our Prevent Ice Dam Products page to view the innovative roof and gutter deicing products available for solving your ice dam problems. You will notice that we do not offer the typical do-it-yourself heat cables or heat tape found at hardware and big box stores. These zig zag heat cables are not effective in eliminating ice dams. In fact, under some conditions, they can actually cause ice dams and icicle formations. The exposed heat cables are prone to damage from animals, falling debris, and being pulled off the roof. While many projects can safely and effectively be undertaken by homeowners, we recommend that you hire a contractor to tackle installing this Ice Dam Prevention System.
