Though that said having a pictched roof is better... you could do a gazebo instead of a trellis... or a sloped trellis, you don't need much slope. you want to remove the water that melts from the snow, that is what causes the problems more than the snow.
The polycarbonate won't hold much snow would it? We were thinking of doing kind of an open clerestory roof where the trellis is the higher part of the clerestory roof, and then just use gutters to catch the water from the house. House has hip roof. Does that make any sense at all?
