Though West Michigan’s winters are lovely, they also present certain difficulties, particularly concerning household maintenance. Dealing with ice accumulation in their gutters presents one of the main challenges for homeowners. Ice dams created by melting snow on the roof and refreezing in the gutters can obstruct appropriate drainage, causing leaks, roof damage, and sometimes deadly icicles to develop around the edge of your house.
This is where heated gutters from K-Guard® of West Michigan find use. Our heated gutter systems use an integrated heating element to melt ice and snow before it can build up, so keep your gutters free regardless of the temperature. This stops ice dams and lowers the chance of water backing up under your shingles, causing expensive interior damage.
Beyond only guarding your house, heated gutters improve safety. Though they look beautiful, icicles can be dangerous if they fall suddenly. By preventing icicle development, heated gutters reduce the danger to your family, guests, and even your landscaping. Furthermore, K-Guard®‘s elegant appearance will help you to relax about clogs or regular maintenance.
K-Guard® of West Michigan offers a long-term fix if you desire one and are sick of coping with ice dams every winter. Our heated gutter systems provide you peace of mind all season long and a hassle-free approach to guard your house. Get in touch now to discover how heated gutters could simplify your winters!
