Do you need to do anything when it snows?

Just get out of the way. When snow slides off the panels, you’ll either hear it or feel it. Hopefully you’ll only hear it.

Nope. They're angled and dark, so the sun will melt the snow enough to where it slides off. When there's a lot of snow and slides off all at the same time, it's a pretty big rumble.

Just let the snow come and melt away. Properly installed, these can handle the weight of snow.

That's better than I thought. Thanks.

Occasionally a big storm or a lot of ice causes buildup. We have a specialized rubber squeegee on a very long pole to remove or loosen any stuck ice. Otherwise it melts right off.
