To make an ice melt sock you need to start with a polyester/nylon based fiber that has a minimum a burst strength of +75 lbs. Make sure the fiber has been impregnated with a UV resistant material so it can survive in direct sunlight, cold, and precipitation, 24 hrs/day, 365 days a year. Weave it using a pattern that resist unravelling when cut or torn, secure both ends as desired so that at least one end can be reopened periodically. Secure the other end with a suitable loop for attaching a throw cord for positioning and retrieval for refill operations.

Ice Dam Melting Socks If you have ever used a "Snow Melt Sock" before, you know that they provide an inexpensive method for removing roof ice dams and improving your home's heating efficiency. Roof ice dams are an annoying source of roof damage, leaks, and heat loss in the winter. The main causes are drip melt from improperly capped warm air vent pipes and poor roof insulation. Laying a snow melt sock onto the roof so it crosses the ice dam and overhangs the gutter, will melt through the snow and ice and create a channel for water to flow down into the gutters or off the roof. If done properly those ice sickles that form as the snow melts from the edges of the gutters will never appear, they too are a cause of much damage and are dangerous to life and limb. Refillable Snow Melt Sock breaks ice dams in minutes by creating ice channels to drain water. Just place and forget it for the winter. The socks are available full of non-staining ice melt or empty for you to fill. Snow Melt Socks remove ice dams to prevent water damage to ceilings, windowsills, wood floors, and carpets. Empty Snow Melt Sock is a nylon sock; this nylon sock can be used again and again to remove ice dams from your roof. Empty Snow Melt Sock does not include Ice Melt or throw cord. Typical filled sock weights 3 pounds, is 18 inches long, Snow Melt Sock lasts for months. This is based on melt of 20-40 Square yards of roof snow per sock used. Place one sock every 10-15 feet at right angles above channel eaves and gutters. Reuse sock until empty. After use allow socks to dry naturally. Store in well-ventilated area. Purchase only environmentally friendly 100% nylon socks. A Snow Melt Sock can last all winter and keep a 20 square foot area clear of ice dams depending on roof angle, sock placement, and rain/snowfall. You can fill and refill the Snow Melt Socks with off the shelf ice melt. Simply open the Velcro strap at top of sock, fill with off the shelf "ice melt" from any hardware store, and reclose the strap tightly bottom knots on the pull cord, attach your own nylon throw cord and throw or place at troubled roof areas where ice dams are evident. Allow the throw cord to hang over the edge of the roof. Leave in place all winter or use 20-foot pull cord to retrieve. Most manufacturers can make socks to any length and can prefill them at a reasonable price plus shipping. You can purchase the "ice melt" with the socks and fill and refill as needed.

If done properly those icicles that form as the snow melts from the edges of the gutters will never appear.
Not much water is required for an ice dam to be created, it usually forms when it snows and temperatures outside are above 32 degrees Fahrenheit and inside is below, the water flows through the roof and freezes causing an ice dam.
