Horrible

[@tcmusic_thomas_upton]

Yes. We used Wasatch for our supplier, and had excellent results. One thing about the clips, is to install them a day or so before usage, so the special adhesive has time to cure, or the clips will not withstand the tug of the heat cable as it is installed. NEVER screw or nail the clips down.... as a professional roofer said, "if water can possibly get in, it will definitely get in".

How will you be correcting the issue in a cost effective manner?

Notice how all of the hairdryers and kitchen appliances have a maximum of about 1500W that's according to code.
The 6W/ft cable has about 4000W... so 3 (1500W) circuits with separate breakers can provide 4500W.
