  • Saved my water pipes
Size: 9-13 Feet Color: Black
Total lifesaver! I have a camper and I’m in the Midwest. I have two of these and so far they’ve been outstanding! The sensor must be exposed to the air so it works properly. As soon as it hits 37°, they turn on and keep my water pipes nice and toasty. Great investment!

  • Still working great a few years later!
Size: 18' Color: Black
I wrapped this around my frost free going to my camper and put fiberglass insulation around it. It works really really well. I can feel warm water a few seconds after turning my faucet to cold even though the wind chill is -11 out right now.

  • Works as intended
Size: 6 Feet Color: Black
Read the Instructions - well written and provide clarity on how to install (and how NOT to install). There is a small orange light in the plug. This is helpful since the light indicates there is power and the unit is working.

  • Great buy
Size: 30' Color: Black
These are easy to install and one of the best investments to keep water growing on those freezing days. Highly recommend

  • Not for use where you have to plug in. Totally worthless!!!
Size: 30' Color: Black
Ground prong will not fit into a standard outlet...is too big in diameter. Totally worthless for keeping the water hose from freezing since I can't plug it in.

  • Works exactly as it should
Size: 6 Feet Color: Black
This Frost King 6ft heat cable works exactly as it supposed to work! I have a pipe that has frozen and split two times in a 10 year period in a non-heated crawl space area. As you can see from the pictures that this last time I made the repair I located the pipe 2 inches away from the outside wall and used the thicker walled "Type L" copper pipe. The Frost King heat cable was very flexible (after I tested it and it had warmed up) to easily tie-wrap to the pipe every 3.5 - 4 inches. After it was tied to the pipe, I trimmed the tie-wrap "tails" and covered the pipe and heat cable with Frost King cotton pipe insulation. Then I covered the spiral seems of the cotton insulation with aluminum duct tape to keep away bugs and critters that may be attracted to the cotton. The Frost King cotton insulation is Class A fire rated, so I have no worries that this install is safe... especially with aluminum furnace tape over it. When I first tried to test the heat cable by using ice packs to chill the sensor for 10-15 mins, the cable appeared to be a dud... it didn't get warm and my "Kill-A-Watt" meter showed no power usage. Then I thought that the heat cable and sensor, that have been sitting in my 90+ degree garage for a day, may be too warm internally to activate even with ice packs surrounding the sensor. So, I put the heat cable in my refrigerator, for 45 mins, to chill the whole thing down to my average crawl space temps in winter time. Then I extended the chilled cable on my counter top and covered the sensor with ice packs and wrapped a hand towel around it (just the sensor section) to let the cold do its job. Within 10 mins the watt meter showed that the cable was drawing 42 watts. I left the cable warm up for another 20mins to see how hot it would get and I could still comfortably hold it in my hand. After I removed the ice packs the cable switched off in just under 8 mins in a 70 degree kitchen... so this cable is slower to react to sudden temp changes than I had thought it would, but it works exactly like it should, since it is only keeping water flowing and preventing ice damage. ... show more

  • Great price for the length of heat tape.
