Appleton ADKS-600 De-icing Kit 120 Feet

Product Description

The APPLETON ADKS-600 is a 120-foot de-icing kit designed to prevent ice and snow accumulation on roof edges, gutters, and downspouts. The kit uses self-regulating or constant-wattage heat trace cable to maintain above-freezing temperatures along vulnerable drainage paths. It is a practical solution for residential and light commercial applications where ice damming causes water infiltration or structural damage. Licensed electricians and experienced service technicians handle installation, which typically involves routing the cable along gutters and through downspouts before connecting to a standard 120-volt circuit.

This kit is suited for residential rooflines, gutters, and downspouts in cold climates where ice dams are a recurring seasonal problem. The 120-foot length accommodates typical single-story and select two-story eave configurations. It is also applicable on low-slope commercial roof sections where meltwater drainage must be kept clear during freeze-thaw cycles.

Key Features

• 120-foot cable length covers extended gutter and downspout runs
• Designed to prevent ice dam formation at roof edges and drainage points

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC Article 426 governing fixed electric heating equipment for pipelines and vessels. De-energize and lock out the circuit before making any wiring connections. Route cable according to the manufacturer layout instructions and avoid overlapping or tightly coiling the heat trace cable, as this can cause overheating. Secure mounting clips and end seals per the included kit instructions before energizing the system.
