Review on Pre-Assembled 6Ft Self-Regulating Pipe Heating Cable - 120V By HEATIT For Efficient Winter Protection by Victor Pinckney

Revainrating 5 out of 5

WORKS GREAT! for my opinion

I bought the 100 footer. We used this for our RV water line while our house was getting built. I put this on a 1/2" PECs line and run it to our well on top of the ground. I just spiraled the heat tape around the water line very spread out. One loop every 3-4 feet. I had 85 feet of water line on the ground. We put the foam pipe insulation, (picked that up at Lowes and comes in 6 foot sections), on the water line and taped all the sections with 3M aluminum tape. Plugged it in and never worried about it. The thermostat control heat line worked like a CHAMP! This winter it got down to -17, Yes -17F! We stayed below freezing for more than 10 days in a row. We left the faucets drip, BUT never had any issues with frozen water lines. My wife thanked me many times over this cold winter in a way that only a wife can. I highly recommend this product!
