Why not build an 'A' frame and cover it with heavy clear plastic or possibly a blue/green poly tarp. Build it out of 1 or 1-1/4 inch PVC piping, some fittings and some nuts and bolts for assembly and disassembly. Anchor it well to the ground to prevent the wind from blowing it away.


A heated pad arrangement (costly to buy) would be electric powered with a pretty expensive bill. I would also worry that differential heat would damage caulk, causing leaks along with icicles down both side and heavy icing alongside.


A note - we have had up to two+ feet of snow on our different 5ers with no damage
