Yes!  All of us!  Including you!!


Tentatively post-fest festivities at "The Pourhouse" in Wolcott unless we determine another option prior.

    Well, I appreciate the compliment, but I certainly didn't come up with any of it!

    No big ice dams here. Our attic is well vented and insulated...if there is too much condensation, we also have an attic fan.
    I really do like your whole engineering aspect on all this, John. You have a great mind!

You fill panty hoe legs with calcium chloride flakes, tie off the ends, and place them perpendicular to the ice dam with the ends hanging over the eave. They melt troughs through the dam and allow the pooled water behind it to drain.
    This is the quick fix. The long term fix is to ensure you have a ridge vent, soffet vents, good insulation of the attic floors (dual layers in the NE even), and that you find and squash any sources of heat leakage into the attic.
    Essentially if you can assure the temperature of the air in attic is the same as the outside ambient air temperature, you will never have ice damming and the costly repairs of the subsequent water damage they bring!
