Rod Slagter2025-03-13 This is the best heat trace line product available. Not cheap, made in Canada. Never a problem (8 years experience with thier products so far. Craig Werntz2025-03-11 I didn't have to climb up on my roof with a thermos of hot water to clear my plumbing stack for the first winter in many years. The heat-line system works and their support is excellent. Kenneth Sullivan2025-03-06 Home owner with down spout freezing issue. Talk to Chantelle about my problem and she was a great help! Very high quality product! Install was smooth and working well. This is not your big box heating cable. Very heavy duty. I would buy again Joe McLoughlin2025-02-03 Excellent service and technical support. John Niederriter2025-01-28 Quick response and professional assistance. Good people, thank you. John Reid2025-01-23 I have had three 120 volt Heat-Line systems operating in winter for many years without any difficulty protecting the domestic water supply lines to my main house and to my adjacent guest house from two deep well pumps located on support frames on the bottom of the St. Lawrence River that flows past the front of my two houses just west of the City of Brockville in the Thousand Islands. The pipelines are all 1 inch PVC pipe, and the lines require Heat-Line protection from freezing in winter because pipeline burial is not possible due to rock. In other words, the lines operate lying on the open ground throughout the winter. Perhaps the most difficult part of installing a Heat-Line heating cable inside my pipes was ensuring accuracy of the measurement of the precise pipeline length so there would not be a portion of the pipeline that was not heated, which then might freeze. Once the Heat-Line package arrived the job of installing the cable inside my 100 foot long 1" PVC pipeline was very easy. I simply fed the cable into the pipeline at its beginning until the cable's "headworks" contacted the beginning of the pipeline, and then the "headworks" was carefully attached to the 1" PVC pipe with the pipe fittings provided and the cable's electrical plug was plugged into the close by electric receptacle, and the job was completed. I elected to also purchase the Heat-Line thermostat with the cable set, and was please to see the simplicity of its installation, which only required screwing its controller mounting bracket to the nearby wall. Attached to the controller were two wires about 4 feet long, one with a male plug to plug into the wall electric receptacle, and the other with a female plug into which the heating cable's m ale plug was inserted, and the job was finished. There was no requirement to set the controlling thermostat, because it was factory set. As an additional remark I make sure all Heat-Line systems are unplugged from their power supply wall receptacles in summer, rather than switching off the receptacle power supply, to ensure that the neutral of the lines, which of course stays connected on 120 volt AC power supply switches, is not available for grounding a summer lightning strike in our area, which of course will result in burning out the Heat-Line unit. In summary, I am very pleased with ease of installation and now with the performance of my Heat-Line winter heating systems for my pipelines as the outdoor temperature drops very low.
