Installation Manual

Each snow season:
Check cable position
Ensure all debris is removed
Inspect cable for damage, deterioration
Test GFI devices
When to operate the heating system:
Operate the RX system in the winter season when temperatures fall between 15°F to 35°F (-9°C to
2°C). In very cold temperatures, the RX system may not generate enough heat to prevent the
formation of ice dams. Turn off the system when ice dams have melted or temperatures are greater
than 35°F (2°C).
An optional automatic system controller is available. Contact your local Danfoss Representative for
details.
In the off season the system may remain on the roof. Disconnect the system to ensure it isn't
accidentally turned on. Never operate the system when ambient temperatures are above 50°F
(10°C) to prevent cable damage or fire hazard.
During the winter season, ensure the system is working efficiently by observing the melting path
created by the heating cables. Cable layout modification may be required to adapt to changing ice
dams or incorrect design.
Use a weather-proof power outlet to prevent accidental GFI tripping.
