Can gutter guards prevent ice dams?

For so many homeowners, the promise of gutters guards preventing ice dams is a hollow one. Experience has taught us that even squeaky clean gutters can, and do, freeze solid. The problem is made worse by many types of gutter guards. When snow melts on the roof and runs the gutter, it can refreeze right on top of the gutter guard. This leads to larger than expected ice dams (or for many, ice dams when they had none before). VersaScreen Gutter Protection tackles this problem with IceBlaster heated gutter protection. The picture below illustrates how well it works.

This customer suffered from chronic ice dams and icicle formations right over the steps to his front door. This was a real safety hazard. This storm dumped 18 inches of snow with 2" of rain mixed in. The picture was taken the day after the storm. The homeowner was thrilled with the performance. The product that accomplished this was not the high priced heated eave panels or the ineffective zig zag heat tape. It was the VersaScreen IceBlaster Pro. 

You, too, can can have peace of mind and solve your ice dam and icicle problems while having clean gutters. Contact us or look up one of our qualified installers to provide you with this excellent gutter protection system.
