Unfortunately - No. Mobile home lines, like garden hoses, just too flexible and not thick enough to withstand the temperatures of the Heat Cable. Don't do it.

No. The Light should be a solid color. If the light is flickering it could mean the cable is not working correctly and you should not install the cable on your pipes.

We do... see below... Click here for the full instructions.

No, never install the Heating Cable kits in walls, floors, and ceilings.

To secure the Heating Cable kit, apply application tape or any good quality electrical tape with a minimum 176 F temperature rating at six-inch intervals. You can secure the Heat Cable Kits with just about any type of tape, but you should stay away from Masking Tape. Masking Tape doesn't have the strength to secure the Cable Kit any length of time, because the adhesive tends to dry out. While it's best to use tape, Cable Ties or Zip Ties will work as long as they are not pulled so tight that they cut into the cable.

Yes. The Heat Cable Kits can be used on plastic water pipes only if they are primary supply pipes with an outside diameter between 3/8" and 1½". The pipes should have, "Schedule 40," printed on the side.

Yes, all the Heat Cable Kits come complete with a built in automatic thermostat that turns ON the cable when the pipe temperature is below 38 F and turns off the cable at above 45.

Yes. For hot pipes, it is recommended that the heating cables should not be installed on pipes heated above 155 F. You should use the Heat Cable Kit on both your hot and cold water pipes if the pipes are exposed to the cold outside air. So, if your pipes are under the house, in an exposed crawl space, or against an exterior uninsulated wall; then it might be a good idea to use the Heat Cables on both hot and cold pipes. Remember, the water in the hot water line turns cold unless it is being used constantly.

Yes, it is ON as long as there is power being supplied.

No! The Electric Heat Cable Kits are made for copper, iron or Schedule 40 plastic water pipes only. Don't do it! No, never install the Heat Cable Kits on any type of hoses.

If the Heat Cable Kit is installed correctly, the light in the plug will be on and the cable should be warm to the touch. You can also test the cable to know if it is working properly. Plug in the cable and wrap a bag of ice around the thermostat block and after 20 minutes, the cable should feel warm to the touch.

No, you should use each product as per the instructions. The Roof Cable Kit is made for roofs only. For pipe application, you will need a Heat Cable Kit.

Yes. The Heat cables can be used on indoor copper water heating pipes.

No. Never ever overwrap the heat cable! Over-wrapping may cause the heating cable to overheat. Never use a cable longer than the pipe it is intended to protect. So don't do it.

All of the Automatic Electric Heat Cable Kits (3 feet through 30 feet) carry a rating of 120V, 7 Watts per foot with a maximum draw of 15 Amps.

Fiberglass Pipe Wrap with Plastic overwrap or Fiberglass Utility Rolls is a better choice. The Wrap does a better job completely encapsulating the heat cable to hold in the heat and better protect the pipe. So... Yes, it is recommended that the heating cable is applied on the pipe, covered with  ½  inch fiberglass insulation or any equivalent non-combustible insulation with vapor seal.

The longest Water Pipe Heat Cable that Frost King produces is 30 feet long.

The Best Practice is to plug the Cable Kit in, before the snow begins. You can then leave the cables powered on until the snow has melted from the roof. Once the temperatures rise above freezing, you can go ahead and unplug the cables.

Measure the length of your gutters, specifically the amount you need to cover. Plus take note the lengths of overhangs and downspouts. Add these measurements together, and you'll know the length needed to purchase Frost King's Automatic Electric Roof Cable Kit. If you still have a Frost King product concern, contact us. It's all explained in the instructions (click here).

No, you must maintain at least 2" clearance between the bottom of the drip loop and bottom of the gutter. Roof Cable Instruction Video Roof Cable Instruction PDF  

When Installing the Roof Cable Kits on your roof edge using the "WWWW" pattern, a good rule of thumb is, for every 20 feet (including the downspout) of roof you plan to cover, you will need approximately 80 feet of Roof Cable. Ultimately though, it depends on the given overhang and other parts of the roof that needs to be protected. Take a look at the instruction manual for more information.  

No, you should use each product as per the instructions. The Roof Cable Kit is made for roofs only. For pipe application, you will need a Heat Cable Kit.

If you plan on running the cable down the downspouts, you could use either the 160 ft or 200ft Roof Cable Kits.

Sorry, but the the Frost King Roof De-Icing Cable Kit isn't made for metal roofs, only roofs with shingles.

All the Frost King Roof De-Icing Cable Kits (30 feet through 200 feet) carry a rating of 120V, 5 Watts per foot.

Nope.  If you have your pipes wrapped with the heat cables, the water will flow normally. 

nope.  Sorry.  They aren't made for PVC pipes.
