[QUOTE="lostinnd, post: 199712, member: 1428"] I never did get around to messing with it last summer and twice I have had them freeze up so far this winter. The first time I just used a really long extendable paint pole with a roller frame attached to the end to knock them free. Luckily I can reach them with a short ladder on the deck and not have to mess around with climbing on the roof. I bought some PVC safe heat tape and my plan is to drop a heat tape down each vent, or one anyway, and if it starts icing just plug it in. Should be easy enough. I may get in the attic and install the heat tape more permanently later on as well. Its not fun coming home to a shitty smelling house when its below zero outside! [/QUOTE]
