Main Description
Keep your pipes cozy and prevent freezing with our Self Regulating Pipe Heat Cable With Built In Thermostat. This 3.7 m heating cable delivers 16.4 W per meter, automatically adjusting heat output based on ambient temperatures to protect water lines from freezing. The built-in thermostat provides precise temperature control, turning on at 43°F (6°C) and turning off at 55°F (13°C) with an accuracy of ±1°. The IP68-rated, water-resistant design stands up to challenging winter conditions, making it ideal for RVs, basements, garages, gardens, water tanks, outdoor hydrants, valves, and faucets. It is suitable for water-filled pipes such as PEX, PVC hoses, and metal pipes. The cable pre-assembles for easy installation in spiral, crossing, or straight configurations, ensuring reliable freeze protection and continued water flow. Quick pre-install testing helps confirm operation before you connect it to power, giving you peace of mind before winter hits.

Warnings / Reminders
- Pre-Installation Testing: Unwind the cable, connect to a power source, and immerse the thermostat section in an ice-filled container for several minutes. When the temperature drops below 43°F (6°C), the thermostat activates the cable; you should feel a gentle warmth shortly after. You can then switch it off.
- Ensure the thermostat and the entire heating cable are in complete contact with the pipe for best results.
- Do not operate beyond the recommended configurations and always follow local electrical safety guidelines.
