IMPORTANT INFO FOR EXTREME COLD TEMPS:
๐๐ ๐ฃ๐ข๐ฅ๐ง๐๐ก๐ง: Monitor your home's humidity levels closely during these periods of extreme low temperatures! If moisture is accumulating on the inside of your windows, reduce your humidity level on your humidifier slightly, and monitor it. These units can run excessively due to your homeโs heating system running mire often.
This excess condensation can pe*****te your homeโs ceilings and form frost on the attic sheathing. This then melts when the sun hits the roof, causing moisture damage.
Poor insulation AND/OR ventilation are often contributors of this issue!
๐๐ผ๐ ๐๐ฐ๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐บ๐?? Time isnโt on your side!
Get them removed before the temps rise to reduce the risks of damage. Ice dams form when attic heat melts snow, and refreezes at the roofโs edges, blocking your drainage system. Over time, this can lead to leaks through ceilings, walls, and siding.
๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ต๐ผ๐ฟ๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐บ ๐๐ผ๐น๐๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป? Clear snow and ice from the first 4-6 feet above your gutters to help prevent water from freezing under your shingles.
But we recommend ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ป๐๐ฎ๐ฐ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ฅ๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ผ ๐ฅ๐ผ๐ผ๐ณ๐ to inspect your roof and attic. Addressing insulation, ventilation, and other conditions can help prevent this from happening again in the future.
