Danfoss RX Roof and Gutter De-Icing Cables Thank you for choosing the Danfoss RX Roof and Gutter De-Icing Kit as the solution to your roof snow and ice problems. Danfoss is the world leader in electric radiant heating and the RX product has been designed to produce an effective and constant solution to protect your roof from ice dams and the related hazards.
When used and installed according to this manual, the RX system provides a path for melted snow and ice to drain from the roof. The Danfoss RX system is not designed to remove ice dams that have already formed, nor should it be used for clearing the entire roof of snow.
Installation & Operation Manual RX Kits. For roof and gutter deicing applications Roofline Pattern A triangular pattern is used on the edge of the roof (Figure 2). The height of each triangle is dependant on the size of the roof overhang. Refer to Table 3 for triangle heights.
