Shovel robot

A bunch of snow on my roof this year..
I'm willing to test out a roof snow shovel robot, as soon as they invent one..

How much snow is on the roof?

Only 2 ft, packed down like Styrofoam, nice and light but a giant sponge, when it rains.

I don't have 2 ft but getting close to it.
No worries about rain-there's no plus temps. above freezing for at least 2 weeks.
Natural evaporation will reduce some of it over that period of time.

I do keep an eye on the venting pipes from a couple of systems that are up there.

Yeah back in the old days, we used to get snow like that, haha! Be careful removing that snow, cause down south of here a few years back, couple of guys were raking snow off the roof of a house, it all came down, buried them, and killed them right there. A sad loss, and not really a way you would ever think of that you might die.
