The MinnSNOWta™ ROOF RAZOR® Roof Rake is an industrial quality tool designed for removing snow from roofs. This helps to both prevent ice dams and prevent snow loading, which can damage your house and property drastically. Remove the snow to prevent ice dams with the Roof Razor®.
The Quickest and Safest Way Possible to Remove Snow From A Roof!
The double cutting surfaces of the MinnSNOWta™ Roof Razor® Roof Rake head allow the Roof Razor® to remove snow by undercutting deep or drifted snow. The snow eventually collapses by its own weight onto the poly chute and slides off the roof. Poly wheels keep the Roof Razor® above the surface preventing damage to frozen shingles. No other snow rake is faster. No other snow rake is easier.
