  • Absolutely the best on the market
Material Type: Single-Light (Classic) Color: 9-feet
Top quality plug with light,cord was very thick and felt heat immediately the thermostat works perfectly and I have no issues at all with a tempiture of -15 where the pipe comes into this old house. I will be getting another 1 or 2 for the outside water as well. Very well built.

  • No Frozen Pipes!
Material Type: Single-Light (Classic) Color: 12-feet
This is great! I built a small guest cabin on my homestead and had been having issues with my water line freezing, even though it was buried nearly 12" deep. This heating wire solved my problems. I purchased one long enough to run along the pex water lines inside the exterior facing wall, vertically down that same wall through the building's wooden floor, and then in the ground several feet horizontally towards the main water source. I used the included tape to secure the wire as it wrapped around the pipe, but I also placed zip ties for added security. We had a week straight of 10 to 15°F temperatures and had no freeze ups on our water supply! Very happy with the product I would buy it again. ... show more

  • Works on PVC Drain Pipes
Material Type: Single-Light (Classic) Color: 6-feet
I have a 1 1/2" PVC drain line in an unheated area. When we have consistent temperatures below 20 degrees in the day and single digits at night, the cold drain line will accumulate ice until the ice blocks the drain. With the deepening cold, and the gurgling of my drain pipe from the ice accumulation, I bought the Maxkosko heating cable. It took a day or two to warm the drain pipe, but the gurgling is gone, the pipe is warm, and no more worries about blockage. Installation was simple, but I don't recommend doing it in 10-degree weather. I did not wrap the pipes with insulation. ... show more

  • So far so good
Material Type: Dual-Lights (2025) Color: 9-feet
Delivering was quick and timely. Product was well put together. Made sure equipment worked and then installed. Have yet to see it turn on since installing but with installation I believe temp may not have dropped enough to trigger the thermostat. Good product so far.

  • Surviving the freeze
Material Type: Single-Light (Classic) Color: 6-feet
I made the purchase just before the weekend freeze and turns out to be the best decision I have made lately. The product was very easy to wrap around pipes, pop-off valve, and a regulator. The thermostat worked perfectly with NO frozen pipes, unlike others in the area. Great product and would highly recommend ... show more

  • Cold weather life saver
Material Type: Dual-Lights (2025) Color: 15-feet
I live in Minnesota. If you know anything about Minnesota it's probably that it gets terribly cold. So when I moved into a run down trailer that was almost twice my age and my pipes froze harder than a dark souls game I wasn't too terribly surprised, but still quite upset. I don't have plumber money so what was u to do about my inability to shower, flush my toilet or do my dishes? I bought this heat tape and wrapped it around my main water line. After an hour or so of crawling around under my trailer and a few minutes of waiting I had running water again. If this tape can thaw a frozen pipe while it's close to 0° ambient temp I would say it's a solid product. It will help keep your pipes from freezing and if you, like me, do not prepare your home for the harsh winter, it will also help thaw your pipes to get you back in got showers and flushable toilets. ... show more

  • Don't risk expensive repairs id you rely on this product
Material Type: Single-Light (Classic) Color: 6-feet
This product should be 100 percent reliable out of the package. You won't know if it's working or not until it needs to heat the pipe In my case we just had a major freeze in Florida February 2026. The tape worked for half the night , but luckily I checked it every few hours and found that it failed in the morning. I diagnosed the failure to a faulty connection at the tail end of the tape Upon my disassembly and inspection I could see that there was shoddy workmanship in the tail end This is totally unacceptable if you're trying to protect outside plumbing suppling a $3000 tankless hot water heater. luckily I was able to repair the tape and re install it in sub zero weather. again not acceptable Next year I am going to a plumbing house and by the best tape that they recommend - no more Amazon on this item. By the way I previously used a tape for 13 years without a problem- it was a reed thermostatic switch very simple ... show more
