Heat-Line Cut-to-Length freeze protection heating cables are ideal for keeping metallic and non-metallic pipes from freezing. These heat cables provide safe, reliable heat tracing for freeze protection of pipes, valves, tanks and similar applications. In commercial construction applications, these heaters can be used on a variety of applications such as; cooling towers, chilled water and plumbing pipes, sump discharge pipes, fire protection system piping and exposed P-traps. For Industrial applications, there usage can include; water treatment facilities, vessel freeze protection and safety lines. Cut-to-Length heating cables are also ideal for process temperature maintenance, pipe freeze protection, fluid flow and viscosity maintenance. Medium and high temperature industrial and commercial grade self-regulating heating cables are also available.All Heat-Line Cut-to-Length heating cables offer the unique and advanced performance of self-regulating heating cable technology. These heaters can effectively increase heat and energy output to sections along its length which are cold and simultaneously reduce heat and energy output to sections which are warm. You never have to worry about heating cable overheating causing risk of melting and fire because of the self-regulating technology. Even in applications where pipes are intended to be dry for short or extended periods of time, the heating cable will never over-heat or melt the pipe. These high-quality heaters give you the peace of mind of reliable freeze protection without the risk. It has become an essential product for electricians, engineers and building officials overseeing commercial, industrial and municipal projects to provide safe and reliable pipe freeze protection.

To further increase the energy efficiency of your heating cable product, it is recommended to add thermal insulation and a thermostat. The additional thermal insulation works to reduce heat loss, and the thermostat allows you to duty cycle your system based on external pipe temperature. Both accessories combined can increase energy efficiency by as much as 80%. In applications where pipes will be exposed to atmospheric (free) air, closed-cell or other approved weatherproof insulation is required. Insulation will help to maintain energy efficiency and cold temperature reliability. Insulation is recommended for use in all new applications; however, any pipe subjected to outside air must be completely insulated to retain the heat within the pipe.

Q – Does Heat-Line cut-to-length heating cable come with a thermostat?
A – No. A thermostat is not included with cut-to-length heating cable as it is not required for proper and safe operation; however, a thermostat can be purchased as an additional accessory. Depending on system applications, or where automatic operation is preferred, a thermostat can be used to switch the system on and off to help conserve power or to duty cycle the system. When combined with insulation thermostats can substantially increase energy efficiency.

Q – Does Heat-Line cut-to-length heating cable come with connection and end seal terminations?
A – No. All input power and end seal termination kits must be order separately and additional from the actual heating cable itself.

Q – Do I need different connection and end seal kits for different applications?
A – Yes. Certain applications whether they are in ordinary or hazardous locations, or even roof and gutter de-icing require different kits with different approvals. Heat-Line can help specify the proper kits for the application in question.

Q – Can I (the homeowner) install cut-to-length heating cable?
A – No. As cut-to-length heating cable is a professional product that is not factory terminated, a licensed electrician must perform the power and end seal terminations.

Q – Does a 240-volt system use less power than a 120-volt system?
A – No – Energy efficiency has nothing to do with the designated voltage. We pay for the energy in watts, not in volts. Years ago, the term more efficient was attached to 240 volt systems because you can put more load or amperage on a 240 volt circuit. Unfortunately, the term more efficient somehow became misinterpreted to mean more energy efficient which is not the case.

Q- What type of insulation should I use with cut-to-length heating cables?
A – Heat-Line recommends to use insulation that is best suited to the environment in which it is going to be installed. A common type of insulation employed with cut-to-length heating cables is waterproof pipe foam insulation sleeves. You are also able to implement fiberglass insulation provided it is properly weatherproofed based on the environment.

Q – Where do I purchase Heat-Line cut-to-length heating cable?
A – Cut-to-length heating cable is available directly through Heat-Line and or any of our Heat-Line product distributors. For a list of Heat-Line product distributors in Canada and the United States please contact Heat-Line directly on our toll-free number at .

Q – Do I have to use insulation with the Heat-Line cut-to-length heating cable?
A – Insulation is highly recommended when using Heat-Line self-regulating cut-to-length heating cables, especially if the installation is above ground in ambient outdoor air. Insulation helps reduce the overall heat loss and therefore reduces the amount of energy consumed by the heating cable.

Q – What is a damp location defined as?
A – A damp location is an interior and or exterior area that is normally or even periodically subject to moisture or condensation in, on, or adjacent to electrical equipment and or heating cable devices. This includes but is not limited to partially protected locations such as canopies, roofed open porches, marquees and similar locations.

Q – What is a wet location defined as?
A – A wet location is an area where liquids may drip, splash, or flow on or against electrical equipment and or heating cable devices.

Q – What is a dry location defined as?
A – A dry location is an area that is not normally subject to dampness or moisture, but may include a location subject to temporary dampness. For example, a building that is currently under construction.

Q – What type of location is considered a hazardous location?
A – A hazardous location is an area that includes the premises, buildings, or part of which the following is present:
(a) an explosive gas atmosphere is present, or may be present, in the air in quantities that require special precautions for the operation, installation, and or construction of electrical equipment or heating cable devices.
(b) combustible dusts are present, or may be present, in the form of clouds or layers in quantities that require special precautions for the operation, installation, and or construction of electrical equipment or heating cable devices.
(c) combustible fibres or filings are manufactured, handled, or stored in a manner that will require special precautions for the operation, installation, and or construction of electrical equipment or heating cable devices.

Q – What type of location is considered an ordinary location?
A – An ordinary location is an area that is dry, at normal atmospheric pressure and under normal conditions electrical equipment and or heating cable devices are not exposed to damage from mechanical causes, excessive dust, moisture or extreme temperatures. Furthermore, all electrical equipment and heating cable devices must be entirely free from possible damage due to corrosive, flammable, or explosive atmospheres.

Q- What is an outdoor location considered?
A- Any location exposed to the weather is considered an outdoor location.

Q- What do the terms NEC and CEC stand for?
A – NEC stands for the National Electrical Code, which is applicable in the United States, and CEC stands for the Canadian Electrical Code which is applicable in Canada.
