Gutters Freezing Up
problem is the lack of insulation in the attic / roof. heat from the
house is melting the snow , then it refreezes in gutter. add
insulation, then when the outside is above freezing it all melts

I just moved into a new house in IA. We had our first bad ice storm
of the year, and one section of my gutters froze up and some water
backed up into the house.
Would gutter covers fix this problem, or should I install a heating
element in the gutter?
Thanks,
Dan
