n/a

Would be better with some sort of adhesive material along the heating element. Also, bought the smallest version of this element and would be nice to have even a smaller one available.

Great For When Mother Nature Strikes

Would Recommend

We have about 4' worth of above ground PVC pipe at the top of our well before the pipe goes back underground where they're safer from the cold. I've had a pipe heat cable on the pipe for the last couple of years but felt I needed to replace that just so we'd have a new one for this winter. It's not that the old ABH Pipe Heat Cable had failed. I just wanted newer. Sure enough, we've spent the last 4 days below 32 degrees and all three nights the temps were in the teens. The cable worked perfectl...

Have a cabin that has solar. This doesn’t take a lot of energy and keeps pipes safe. The Customer service desk was on top of it… already had my item waiting on me before I got to the counter 😎 Good Job!

Didn't work

Would Not Recommend

Didn't work. The light in the plug came on but the element never warmed up. The water line it was installed on froze and broke.

Thermostat Keeps It From Working

Would Not Recommend

I bought this to unblock a frozen pipe right at the joint where a bad hose faucet comes into the main line. The thermostat only turns the cable on when the pipe is 38 degrees or colder, and where the closest plug is the pipe was 52 degrees. I had to try wrapping a bag of ice around the pipe to get it COLD enough to turn it on. Ended up removing the whole thing, got out a heat gun, and thawed the pipe with that. Would not recommend this at all.
