So fun to be snowed in at the Park City house. So far we’ve been here a few days and have had a couple of big snow falls.
Here is the house from the inside, very toasty.

Roof Performance
December 29th, 2010 by KTU | No Comments | Filed in 5. Exterior Materials and Finishes, Park City Mountain ModernI’ve now observed a few weeks of snow on the roof. So far no ice dams and very few icicles…just what has resulted from the sun melting snow at the fringes of the exposed roof.
The snow slid off one section of the roof (the northeast corner, strangely). It was pretty dramatic when it went. We had a few quite warm days last week (around 35F/2C) and I think the ventilated roof actually allowed melting at the roof surface when warm air vented up through it. The snow bars above the hot tub are working very well.
The snow slid off one section of roof. I believe that when the roof rusts fully, the snow will stay on. There are snow bars above the hot tub (the center section of the roof).
