Appleton ADKS-1200 De-icing Kit 240 Ft

Product Description

The APPLETON ADKS-1200 is a self-regulating de-icing cable kit designed to prevent ice and snow buildup on roofs, gutters, downspouts, and pipe runs. At 240 feet of coverage, this kit suits mid-to-large residential and light commercial applications where freeze protection across extended runs is required. Self-regulating heat cable automatically adjusts its heat output based on ambient temperature, reducing energy consumption during warmer conditions. Licensed electricians and experienced HVAC service technicians typically handle installation of heating cable systems of this size.

This de-icing kit is well-suited for roof edge and gutter protection on residential and commercial structures in cold climates. It can also be applied to exposed piping in unheated spaces such as crawlspaces, eaves, and overhangs where freeze damage is a concern. The 240-foot run length makes it practical for multi-zone or full-perimeter installations on larger structures without requiring multiple kits.

Key Features

• 240-foot coverage length for extended roof, gutter, and pipe de-icing applications
• Self-regulating cable technology adjusts heat output to ambient conditions
• Reduces energy use compared to constant-wattage heating cable
• Suitable for residential and light commercial freeze protection
• Kit format includes components needed for a complete installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style de-icing cable kit for roof, gutter, downspout, and exposed pipe freeze-protection applications where a 240-foot self-regulating heating cable solution is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC Article 426 guidelines for fixed outdoor electric deicing and snow-melting equipment. Disconnect and lock out power at the circuit breaker before servicing or modifying any existing heat cable system. Secure the cable at manufacturer-recommended intervals using appropriate roof clips or pipe attachment hardware, and avoid overlapping the cable on itself, which can cause overheating. Verify the supply circuit ampacity and GFCI protection requirements before energizing the system.
