How is a ZMesh roof deicing system activated?
ZMesh roof deicing systems can be activated automatically using an aerial-mounted snow and moisture sensor that triggers the system when the temperature drops below 38°F and moisture is detected. Additional activation options include a gutter-mounted switch, a temperature-only sensor, a 12-hour manual timer, WIFI-controlled, and weather-predicting activation (coming soon). Automatic activation is strongly recommended — it ensures the system activates before ice begins to form, which is more effective and energy-efficient than reactive manual operation.
