Best Way To Remove Snow From The Roof
Accumulated snow can be a killer, and when you have a flat roof, the damage is incomparable. In this article, we will discuss different ways to keep your roof safe and make your winters hassle-free.
While there are different ways to remove snow and protect your roof, it is best to maintain it throughout the year.

- Use an Ice Melt
We want you to enjoy your winter without any hassle, and by investing in eco-friendly products, such as Safe Paw, you get an opportunity to do just that. If fertilizer ice melt is something you’re thinking about, it’s the best option for you.
It is important to note that ice melt damages the concrete. Therefore choose an ice melt that is non-toxic and chemical-free. Many people prefer fertilizer ice melt. There are better, more effective, and equally harmless ice melt options.
By reducing the freezing point of water, ice melts effectively melt snow and ice. But salt-based ice melts can be nearly as corrosive on flat rooftops as they are on concrete and asphalt pavements.
A chloride-free and eco-friendly ice melt like Safe Paw is a non-toxic and non-corrosive alternative to salt-based ice melt. It dissolves ice, relieves stress on a flat roof, and channels drainage.
It is not only non-corrosive but also prevents the further formation of ice. While you can fill stockings with the safe ice melt and lay them on the snow and ice after a storm, spreading a layer of non-corrosive ice melt on roofs before a storm is a preventative approach.
Get ready for winter with the ONLY Pet Safe Ice Melt you can trust
- Under The Roof Deck Ventilation
Under-the-roof-deck ventilation keeps cooler outside air circulating through the attic, preventing it from warming over the freezing point and melting snow on the roof.
- Block Heat Sources
Block any heat sources that could be contributing to the attic’s excessive temperatures.
Keep gutters free of debris. Remove all of the fallen leaves before the winter arrives. Make sure your downspouts are working correctly as well. If the gutters are clogged, the melting snow has nowhere to go.
Final Words
Flat roofs are generally closed structures. They do not have outlets for runoff. Therefore, the snow piles up on the rooftop. Not only does it put undue strain on the construction of your building, but it can also cause seepage issues.
A pet safe ice melt ingredient does not include chemicals. Therefore if you have pets, consider a chemical-free ice melt. If an ice dam is forming, you can use Safe Paw. It is a non-toxic and salt-free ice melt.
