Snow retention systems for metal roofing
Metal roofs provide durable, long-term solutions and have been preferred by many for use in challenging northern and alpine climates where snow and its migration on and from the rooftop is a normal occurrence. Such climates can pose unique challenges for any roof. A pitched roof of a material that has a slippery surface can pose sliding snow and ice hazards below the eaves. In many instances, snow retention systems are installed on these roof types in order to reduce the risk of a sudden rooftop avalanche and mitigate the hazards present in the discharge areas below the eaves.
