Heat tape or cable up the down spout along the gutter and zig zag along the overhang. stops the ice dam. Heat tape or cable is on a thermostat with the ability to override. No snow turn it off, warm but freezing at night turn it on. It works well. Even up the valleys, comes in many lengths.
Depending on the length required choose tape or cable. |

We used to have 8 inches of ice dam on the eaves. No more. |

Today I learned that I should not spend too much time away from this forum. Catching up with posts becomes a job that I don't want..

I have the opposite problem since I have been spending so much time at my desk the last year.

One guy I really respect suggested I look into gutters with fully heated "helmets".. that way the entire run is heated instead of just the narrow channels by heat tape. Probably cost $2K by the time I'm done, but it'll be worth avoiding having to drywall, paint, wallpaper, and spend three full days hacking at ice on a stepladder with a hatchet freezing my @#$# off (OK, that last part was an exaggeration.. I like being outside, and the work was plenty hard enough to keep me warm... just not fun). I DO appreciate the thoughts.

Today I learned that, because of covid, if you get a package that requires a signiture, you can just give them permission to leave it using your Ring doorbell, and they will sign for you.
That and it takes approximately 5 seconds to change barrels on a Glock. |

I have learned to move my computer set up to be as far away from water sources as possible.
Two weeks ago the wife discovered that if she gets to aggressive with the plunger she can break the wax seal between the toilet base and the pipe. This lets the liquid from the bowl to escape, run down the outside of the pipe to the bend and then drip onto the basement ceiling tiles. Which, once thoroughly soaked allow said liquid to leak onto my computer. She didn't learn anything as she did it again over the week end and you guessed it, my computer, although moved, was still in the "splash zone". What I learned today is that plumbing companies figure if one young guy with a small snake didn't get it all the first time, send two big old guys with the mother of all electric motor driven snakes to get it done. I'm sure the bill will be more then double too. Oh and yes the computer set is on the opposite wall now. Far away from any possible spillage. (I hope) |
