Customer Reviews for VEVOR Self-Regulating Pipe Heating Cable, 120-feet 5W/ft Heat Tape for Pipes Freeze Protection, Protects PVC Hose, Metal and Plastic Pipe from Freezing, 120V

The pipe heating cable worked as advertised, Easy to install and I no longer worry about the pipes freezing.Very pleased with this product.Note -- Ensure you follow the directions, the thermostat Must be touching and secured to the pipe as stated in the instructions.

This was so easy to install! I live in Michigan and we are already down into the 20s and will be in single digits by the end of the week. This item is very easy to install and looks to be of good quality. Plug it in and leave it plugged in all winter, instant peace of mind! Very nice!

I'm using this underground to keep my drain pipe from freezing and backing up into the foundation. I checked it does warm up nicely I'm hoping for a trouble-free winter.

Vevor pipe heat tape does exactly what you want it to do, keep the pipes from freezing in cold weather. Simple install start with the thermostat bulge near the plug, make sure it has good contact against the pipe as this controls the heat element. from there basically wrap or zip tie the heating elemnet to the pipe plug it in and you are good to go. Good for outside pipes to keep them from freezing.

I have used heat tape in the past on pipes. This is basically the same thing just a lot more of it. The length was necessary for a pipe that I have leading up to where we keep our animals. We have been carrying water up in buckets to them, but it was a very cumbersome task. This heat tape allowed me to be able to wrap the pipe and keep it thawed so that we can use the spicket at the top of the hill. I can remove this in the summer for mowing.

This heat cable works fine. I have a section of roof that created a dangerous ice dam that damaged the house when it fell. Not this year!

We have an unheated seasonal fairly primitive lake cabin up in the mountains that we use during the summer and shoulder seasons. At higher elevations, pipes can freeze in October and April and cause major headaches, so this is such a great solution! The package includes the encased heating element wires and tape to hold the cable tight when it is wrapped around the pipe. Our water pipes coming into the cabin in the cellar was installed in the 1940s or 50s, and this device is just perfect for our needs. The sensor automatically heats the pipes when the pipe temperature hits a lower temperature and keeps the pipes warmed until the temperature goes back up to 55 degrees. Definitely a great device to give homeowners the peace of mind knowing that as long as you have running electricity, your pipes won't freeze! (Caveat: You must have an electrical outlet installed near where you want to run this.)

I got this heat tracing to help protect my swimming pool piping in the winter. It is something that I've thought about in the past because our current installation is protected via a thermal response to temperatures that drop below 37 degrees F. That response is that all 3 pumps come on to circulate the water through the system. The only exposed pipes are associated with the pool pump station while all others are below ground. This gave me the opportunity to trace these lines to reduce the need to run the pumps so often.It is worth noting that our winters come at 3 to 5 days at a pop, then it's fall like weather for a week or two. This is why I still need to run the pumps to circulate the water... it helps prevent algae that will grow after 2 or 3 days with no circulation.I won't be able to fully test the system until we get a freeze but, for now I just did as the instructions indicated. I placed the thermal probe into a can of iced water and watched for the power to come on. It did and as soon as I felt a small amount of heat, I unplugged it. I am awaiting some insulation now and will wrap the pipes and insulate them to make a permanent install prior to the first freeze. Hopefully this will work to keep the water from freezing and to send the signal to the controls that the water temp in the pipes (where the system thermal probe is) is above the trigger point and prevent the pumps from engaging.It is worth noting that I'll also be wrapping the pumps and insulating them to help with this freezing stuff.

I have a water pipe that runs out into my garage. It freezes sometimes in the winter. This thing keeps this pipe from freezing. This pipe heater can save you thousands of dollars in repairs. It comes with everything you need to install. The installation of the heater is simple, although accessing most pipes is usually difficult. So far, no problems at all. One other suggestion... Order a longer cord than you think you'll need!

This works great and it's really heavy duty. Got this to wrap around pipes in well house should the temps get too low. I should have ordered a longer length, because 6' when wrapped takes up a lot less length than 6 feet, but it will still work. I am impressed with the construction of this and notice it is much heavier duty than other heat tapes we have had in the past. The price is great for all lengths, this is a good product.
