User questions & answers

Question:	Is this a Garelick Roof Rake
Answer:	the whole shovel is steel, however, I think the end of the blade needs to be re-enforced a bit since the edges will curl up a bit if you use the side to crack ice. Overall, it's does a good job clearing snow and ice. I break plastic shovels so this is the next best thing.
Question:	Would this rake work for removing pine needles off my roof
Answer:	For me it pushes well as long as there is light snow falls. As snow fall gets larger you have to go over the area several times to clean. I wanted this shovel to push and really get the sidewalk clean which it does very well. It was heavier than I expected but I really like it.
Question:	Can you by replacement wheels/ rollers
Answer:	By looking at the specifications on the Amazon site, I would guess that Yukon-24 at 8 lb is made out of heavier gauge steel than the 6.4 lb Nordic-24. The heavier shovel will make it easier to push but will be more difficult to lift if you have to throw the snow over a mound after pushing it. I use a Garant YSP24DU and find it well built and am satisfied. It was a bit of a challenge after the last snow (12 inches) since there was already a lot of snow on the sides of the driveway and I had to lift this wet snow over the existing mounds. Incidentally, Garant web site was no use because it does not give any specs. Hope this helps.
Question:	What's the pole diameter? Both male and female parts, please thank you
Answer:	No, the whole plow is made of a heavy polymer plastic. It’s vey easy to handle.

Snow is heavy and can damage your roof & home. Avalanche! Snow Roof Removal Systems are easy for anyone to use from the ground - no ladders required!

The Avalanche Original Snow Removal Systems with the snow slide was invented in 1977 and sold in hardware stores. It has been tried-and-true in Minnesota winters ever since. It’s now lighter weight and more effective than ever before.

Removing roof snow is necessary to keep ice dams from forming and to prevent structural weight problems for a home or any structure. Ice dams can cause damage to shingles, sheetrock and more. Removing snow with each snowfall is important to prevent ice dams from forming by clearing the first 4-8 feet of snow from the edge of your roof. For deep and heavy snow, the Avalanche! is perfect and popular in high snowfall areas because it allows deep snow to be removed from roofs quickly and safely.

To remove snow, place the Avalanche roof rake head on the bottom edge of your roof. Roll the Avalanche up and snow easily slides off the roof. The Avalanche is fun and satisfying to use; it’s been known to make neighbors jealous. A lightweight handle and cutting head allow Avalanche to remove up to a ton of snow a minute. It’s designed for users of all ages and is less strenuous on the body than a traditional snow roof rake. Not only is the Avalanche Original easy to use, but also requires no tools to assemble!

Important facts about ice dams for homeowners:

Ice Dams occur when temperatures drift between 10 and 30 degrees Fahrenheit. Ice builds up on the edge of the roof, but snow will melt above the ice ridge and the water will collect and flow under the shingles and into the house, causing tea-colored stains on walls and ceilings and destroying wallboard, plaster and insulation.

How Do I know if I have ice dams?

To determine if your roof has ice dams, or is merely sporting innocent winter decoration, look for a ridge of ice at the roof’s edge, or a bulging area under a layer of snow above the icicles. Those are ICE DAMS. You often have to remove the snow buildup to see the ice ridge.

The Good News:

You don’t typically need to remove all of the snow on your roof to avoid ice dams. If you remove the lowest 4 to 8 feet from the roof edge this is usually enough to keep ice dams from forming.

User questions & answers

Question:	How do the vinyl slides hold up? ...and are the slide replacements readily available
Answer:	17 Inches... you don't want it to wide because this is pretty much to move heavy wet snow. For that it works well. It is not built for chipping or scrapping because they want to keep it light weight for lifting heavy snow. Some people have said they think it is cheaply built in the reviews and I think it was more about keeping the weight down.
Question:	Will this work on solar panels without damaging them
Answer:	There is a metal strip across the bottom that is folded over both sides of the shovel. It clings pretty tightly on cement, but slides easily on asphalt. I love the second handle because I don't have to bend over to pick it up as I have had three back surgeries. The one thing I dislike about it is that second doesn't rotate on the shaft of the main shovel so pitching the snow off isn't as easy as my previous shovel that I wore out. (Can't find one like it or I would have gotten that instead of SnoJo.
Question:	I have de-icer cables installed on my roof - will this work well with those cables or will it catch the cables and yank them off or loosen them
Answer:	I just weighed it with a luggage scale. It weighs 2 pounds.
Question:	Does the pole stay rigid when extended out to 30’ or does it start to bow
Answer:	24" wide. It is steel, and we used it last winter on our long driveway. Would recommend it. I'm a woman and had no trouble pushing snow with it.

User questions & answers

Question:	Are there extension poles available
Answer:	I don't sell them so I don't know if you can buy it any other way. The wheels can pop out in heavy jobs. I found them and popped them back in. I think the rake works well and has paid for itself with all the snow we have been getting.
Question:	Can you get extensions for the pole to increase length? I know it comes with 3, would like to get an additional two
Answer:	I do not have solar panels on my roof, and my thought would to let the snow melt by it self, but if I were going to use a snow rake, it would be this one. I found an article on the web that referenced this snow rake for snow removal on solar panels. http://news.cnet.com/8301-11128_3-10156471-54.html If you were to use it you would have to be very, very careful to be sure that the bottom of the blade was lowered so the sharp corners of the rake do not touch the panels. Also, if you received heavy resistance when pulling the rake down, I would stop and lift it off rather than putting extra possible pressure on the panels. Good luck.
Question:	Can this be used on solar panels
Answer:	Elisabeth I purchased this rake some time ago... I would not personally use it on any material softer than a roof... It is made of aluminum with a strong edge. You should be able to modify the rake by putting a some type of plastic type adhesive tape along the edge to protect the cloth material.
Question:	Why is this product not able to ship to california
Answer:	There are 2 UHMW (plastic) slide mounting strip bolted on the cutting frame holding the snow slide. On Snowpeeler.com you can buy several replacements parts including the slide. Next year on Amazon.com they will be available

Question:	I live in Florida no snow, just leaves and pine needles. Would this work for "raking" the leaves, etc. off? And, will it reach the peak of the roof
Answer:	The Snowpeeler has protective glide pads made of UHMW an anti-friction and self lubrification material. On Poly covered roof, you should use it with extreme care by making sure the SnowPeeler is always parallel to the roof. If there's at least 1'' of hard pack snow on the roof, you could consider remove take the pads in order to the cutter head to slide on the pack snow. Extreme care is the key here !

I had people stopping and watching 10 feet of 10-12 inch slide off the roof like butter. I was concerned at first with how deep the snow was. This handle both the whole house and his garage quickly and with ease. I've used it several times. It gets five out of five stars from me.

User questions & answers

Question:	Do the wheels protect the roof from damage from the metal rake
Answer:	I do not have solar panels on my roof, and my thought would to let the snow melt by it self, but if I were going to use a snow rake, it would be this one. I found an article on the web that referenced this snow rake for snow removal on solar panels. http://news.cnet.com/8301-11128_3-10156471-54.html If you were to use it you would have to be very, very careful to be sure that the bottom of the blade was lowered so the sharp corners of the rake do not touch the panels. Also, if you received heavy resistance when pulling the rake down, I would stop and lift it off rather than putting extra possible pressure on the panels. Good luck.
Question:	Can this be used on roof mounted solar panels
Answer:	Elisabeth I purchased this rake some time ago... I would not personally use it on any material softer than a roof... It is made of aluminum with a strong edge. You should be able to modify the rake by putting a some type of plastic type adhesive tape along the edge to protect the cloth material.
Question:	The listing says 30' but the description says reaches 20' from your hand. Which is it? I need to clean a 2 story roof from the ground
Answer:	haven,t had to get any yet, good question. but I,d look at web site and ask manufacture location. pretty sturdy so far.
Question:	Can this be used to push snow off the roof from a higher floor window, or is it only for pulling snow off
Answer:	Mine has small plastic wheels on each side --- usually there is enough snow that the wheels ride on top of some snow so it shouldn't do any scratching BUT a lot of that depends on the paint quality also. I do have a shingle roof but like I said it should have a "snow cushion" that the wheels ride on. The rake itself is not that heavy.
Question:	Can I purchase just the rake section seperately ? Don't the wheels pop out easily and get lost
Answer:	I am not sure I can answer the "offset left or right" component of your question...but I suppose you could use it from on a ladder if the ladder is properly secured or manned by someone at the base. It all depends on how heavy or compacted your snow is. If it's heavy or compacted it may not be safe to do that because it requires a bit of force to push it up under the snow --I found it really easy to use from the ground with all the extensions in place. I have not used it from atop a ladder.
Question:	Can it be used on solar panels
Answer:	It certainly should. The purpose is for snow removal so I don't think it matters if your roof is flat or pitched.
Question:	Has anyone used this or any other rake to remove snow from a year round sunbrella type(cloth material
Answer:	it has 1.5 inch wheels and works great.

User questions & answers

Question:	is this safe for removing ice and snow from a satellite dish and wont scratch the metal dish
Answer:	I would not use it on solar panels. You would be pulling metal across the surface of the panels. I have a solar array that I only use a broom to remove the snow. Otherwise I love the rake. The handle was too short for my roof so I modified the handle from my other rake to increase the length.
Question:	Is there any warrenty with this snow rake? Mine broke with in the first week
Answer:	Too short to reach. Need to figure out how to add extra handle, then must be careful not to bend it getting it up to the roof.
Question:	Does this roof snow rake work to remove leaves
Answer:	Mainly used for pulling doesn't stand up to pushing very well
Question:	Blade looks to be made of metal in the photos. Is it really poly
Answer:	I don't sell them so I don't know if you can buy it any other way. The wheels can pop out in heavy jobs. I found them and popped them back in. I think the rake works well and has paid for itself with all the snow we have been getting.
