• Along the rise of large triangles
For triangles that are larger than 3 feet in height, also attach clips
every 3 feet up the height of the roof.

of larger triangles
• Around dormers
Figure 16 shows how to use a clip to attach the cable when the cable
is running vertically around a dormer. Lift the side edge of the shingle
gently to insert clip sideways.

• Near skylights
Triangles of cable are attached near skylights the same way as shown
in Figures 12, 13 and 14. If the skylight is high up the roof (making
the triangles larger than 3 feet in height), clips must also be attached
every 3 feet up the height of the roof, as shown in Figure 15.
• Up and down valleys
Figure 17 shows how to
use a clip to attach the
cable up and down the
valley. Lift the side edge
of the shingle gently to
insert clip sideways.

ADKS Owner's Manual
Routing the cable along the gutter using cable spacers. This section
describes how to route the cable along the gutter using spacers.
• While the cable is being laid in the gutter, the spacers can be tightened
with fingers or pliers. If you use pliers, squeeze gently and use care
to avoid pinching, crimping, cutting into or otherwise damaging the
cable (see Figure 18). Do not use a hammer to tighten the clips and
spacers.
Figure 18. Squeezing spacers with pliers
• Route the cable in the gutter along a treated area of roofline.
Using a spacer, fasten the gutter cable to the bottom of each drip
loop you have formed. See Figure 19. Keep the cable in the gutter
tight and off the bottom of the gutter to prevent heat loss.
