Can"t help you this year but the REAL solution is 12" to 15" of insulation in the attic floor (top floor ceiling), and very good venting from the eaves up thru the peak. If you can keep the snow from melting above the overhang, you won"t have any problem. Having said that, I do have 15" of insulation in my attic but because I heat with wood, I keep the house unusually warm and if we get 15" to 18" or snow or so, I find it necessary to use a snow rake to get the snow off the roof at least 4" up from the eaves. Snow is a fairly good insulator. It also tends to reduce the effectiveness of the ridge vent. You will find that insulation pays for itself very quickly at today"s fuel prices! That"s my story and I"m stickin" to it! LOL
