After installation, inspect the areas around the snow guards for any gaps or spaces where water could potentially leak. Use a suitable roofing sealant to seal these gaps, ensuring that the installation is waterproof and provides maximum protection against snow and ice. Determine the placement of the snow guards according to the roof pitch and the expected snow accumulation. Use chalk or a marker to outline the designated spots for each snow guard, ensuring they are strategically located for optimal effectiveness. Before you begin the installation, it’s essential to check local building codes and regulations that pertain to snow guard installation.
