ETHERMA DSN – Roof heating mat
The DSN heating mat consists of a glass fibre mesh onto which a heat conductor with
a UV-resistant outer insulation is sewn (for foil and flat roofs). This is a safety
measure to prevent damage to the roof, roof gutters and building from
snowfall.
The heating mat is particularly easy to install and secure to the roof because of
the glass fibre mesh. Due to the advanced stitching technology with PTFE thread, a
completely reliable layer and the stability of the heating mat are guaranteed. All
components are 100% UV-resistant.

On certain specific roof geometries, ready-made heating systems cannot be used in certain cases - it is however still possible to freely lay heat conductors or heating strips in order to ensure the drainage of the melted water to the roof gutter and hence down the downpipe to the ground. The ETHERMA planning team will provide custom advice in these cases, and find the appropriate solution.

ROOF AREA HEATING SYSTEMS ENSURE SAFETY.
Snowy winters are a boon to winter sports fans, but they also come with their own dangers. Roof areas and buildings become structurally overloaded due to the large amounts of snow involved, and can even collapse in the worst-case scenario. In this case, an individually designed roof heating system provides reliable protection. Every roof is different - which is why we offer a wide range of frost protection systems suited to roof designs, and the challenges that they pose. These are characterised by their high levels of operational safety, simple installation and outstanding durability.
GREATER COMFORT – ENJOY WINTER.
Do you really want to be clambering around on your roof in the middle of a snowstorm, clearing snow? Make yourself comfortable at home instead - ETHERMA roof area heating protects you and your building. Thanks to the ETHERMA product palette, you no longer need to fear sudden changes in the weather, but can enjoy the pleasant side of winter, free from worry.
FAST MELTING RESPONSE.
Once a layer of snow has formed, this is difficult to melt. The heating system must be designed in such a way that the melting process starts immediately once snow starts to fall. The only way to do this is to ensure the right output and a perfect control system. The ETHERMA planning team will configure the heating system to your specific requirements.
CLEVER AND FULLY AUTOMATED CONTROL.
Efficient roof area heating heats only when the temperature is low enough, and from certain humidity levels. This means that the heating stays off in dry cold spells, as well as during rainfall at sufficiently high temperatures. In this way, you can heat efficiently with a full-automated control system which simultaneously monitors temperature and humidity.
PROTECTS THE STRUCTURE.
Large amounts of snow can overload roof areas, which can lead to damage to the building itself. Roof area heating is often the easiest solution without having to resort to expensive structural enhancements or other measures.
BE IT A PAVILION ROOF OR EXTENSION.
Extensions are primarily at risk from buckling due to large amounts of snow on critical points. Roof heating films melt this snow safely and reliably, and hence protect the roof as well as the structure of the building.
