Two Actions That Can Lead to Heating Cable Damage in Downspouts If Left Unchecked

It is important to give your downspouts and other drains the attention they deserve to ensure they do not freeze, resulting in costly water damage. Installing a Heat-Line advanced heating cable system within a gutter or drain will create a meltwater pathway, giving the water the needed route to migrate away from the building. When installing a heating cable in a downspout or drain it is important to ensure that you first check for sharp edges that could potentially damage the heating cable during or after installation.

Listen to this month’s video blog and learn directly from a Heat-Line specialist about two important measures to complete prior to installing a heating cable system within a downspout or drain.
