User questions & answers

Question:	how can I view the old Amazon search page??? This new page is terrible
Answer:	Hola RODOLFO, el grosor del lado transparente es de 3 mil (76,2 micras) y el lado en relieve es de 11 mil (279,4 micras). Gracias a la experiencia de 10 años en la fabricación de bolsas de sellador al vacío, podemos hacer que estas bolsas sean delgadas y transparentes mientras mantenemos una tenacidad mecánica similar con las bolsas de 4 mil. Desafortunadamente, no ofrecemos venta en paquetes en este momento. Esten atentos a los paquetes de negocios en el próximo verano. ¡Gracias!
Question:	Does this work on a driveway if I were to just lay it when it snows
Answer:	The thickness of the clear side is 3 mil (0.08 mm) and the embossed side is 11 mil (0.28 mm). Thanks to the 10-year experience of manufacturing vacuum sealer bags, we can make these bags thin and clear while maintaining similar mechanical toughness with the 4 mil bags out there.

Question:	Does it come with installation clips or are they seperate
Answer:	I agree with Mary, great product but have not tried in a pressure cooker. Just place food in pressure cooker, things taste better not cooked in plastic.
Question:	Is this item 120v or 240v? the description says 120v, but when i search dhehk12083, only 240v comes up
Answer:	Works great on FoodSaver. Just save the cardboard roller from the last package you use so you can roll 1/2 of the 50' onto it if you have the Food Saver with the bag cutter and roll compartment. 50' is too large to put inside the FoodSaver to cut bags.
Question:	Where can I purchase replacement pivot bolts for this saw horse
Answer:	Are you a freaking herpetologist? What could you possibly have 50 contiguous feet of that needs to be vacuum sealed?
Question:	Is the height adjustable
Answer:	Same as foodsaver bags, polyethylene. Just not sure how many layers and if nylon is an outer layer. Lol just plastic? So any plastic bags would work? Right.

Product description

Grip Clip roofing cable clips come in a pack of 25 clips and provides a simple and effective solution to your roof cable installation needs. The nail free design does not require any additional tools due to its innovative “toothy pincher” design. The Grip Clip teeth grab the underside of the roofing shingle, producing a strong grip. No additional roofing tools are needed, making for a safer installation process. To re-position a Grip Clip, simply lift the edge of the shingle and slide the Grip Clip up to release the teeth. A common issue with ice dam cable installations is cable ends making contact and shorting out. Grip clips prevent this from happening by remaining secure and lasting indefinitely. Grip Clip is the only clip that allows for a building code compliant application of self-regulating heat cables near the center of the roof valley, where you want them. Using traditional clips requires that fasteners are driven through the valley flashing, which violates most building codes. Grip Clips can also be used on other roofing cable applications such as seasonal holiday string lights. Grip Clips can be used on a wide variety of roofing materials which range in thickness from 1/8” to 3/4”, including cedar shakes, Davinci shakes/slate and all other types of synthetic roofing. Grip Clip is a Minnesota-based company with expert support staff available to help solve your roof ice dam problems.

During the winter, Frost King products will keep the cold air out, insulate your pipes and protect your rooftops from freezing snow. In the summer, Frost King keeps gutters clean, protects your home from leaks, and cuts air conditioning costs.

Product description

Roof and gutter De-Icing cables help prevent costly damage from ice Dam formation by preventing freezing of un-insulated roof eaves, Valleys, gutters and downspouts, and allows water to drain freely. This product is for use on inclined, tab-shingle roofs and in downspouts and gutters only. To ensure water can flow to the ground, cable should be installed on Unheated portions of the roof (usually the overhang) as well as in Valleys, gutter and downspouts. Roof and gutter De-Icing kits are available in lengths from 30 ft to 240 ft. These products are found as De-Icing and snow melting sets primarily in northern markets beginning in early October.

User questions & answers

Question:	Looking to melt snow and ice for a shed door, I know it says its not suggested for metal, but what about wood or on top of the ground
Answer:	The heat cable does not get very warm. It will only melt snow a couple of inches around the cable. On roof eves it only makes a path a couple inches wide .for the melted water of an ice dam to flow down hill off the roof.
Question:	Does this outlet have a thermostat which turns on when it reaches below a certain temperature
Answer:	This heating cable does not have an outlet or thermostat. It needs to be controlled by an outlet with thermostat or by manually turn on or off.
Question:	Does this work on metal roofs
Answer:	Not recommended for metal roofing.
Question:	Can I connect two or more heat cables together without having to install more putlets
Answer:	The heating cable itself does not have an outlet to connect. You need consider your outlet amperage for the total heating cable wattage you plugged. Do not overload your outlet!
