Elle, there are two potential solutions to this problem.  You can add 
a cover, which allows signal to pass through, but won't allow snow 
and ice to build up.  Or, you can add a dish heater - which uses 
power but has a thermostat, so it's not on all the time.  Here are 
some links to start with -

You can find more products by searching around for "satellite dish 
cover" or "satellite dish heater".
