An integral energy-saving thermostat controls the AHB cable to automatically protect water pipes when the temperature dips into the critical range. There's no easier, more effective \"do it yourself\" solution for safeguarding water pipes in cold climates. Each AHB cable consists of a tough XLPE inner insulation, a continuous ground braid and weather resistant PVC outer jacket. AHB units are activated and de-activated by an integral energy-saving thermostat. Each cable is UL Listed to Canadian Safety Standards and CSA Certified when used in accordance with instructions on water-filled metal or plastic pipes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eSize: 6'\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eHeats to 7W per foot, total: 42W\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e120 Volt, 0.4 Amp\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eFor use with plastic or metal pipe\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eSurface mounted snap action thermostat activates heat only when needed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eXLPE inner insulation and continuous ground braid\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eWeather resistant PVC outer jacket\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eApplications: Residential metal or plastic water supply pipes vulnerable to freezing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eUL Listed to Canadian Safety Standards and CSA Certified when used in accordance with instructions on water-filled metal or plastic pipes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium; color: #800000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow To Install System\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eTo choose the right length of pipe freeze protection cable, cable should be long enough to run along bottom of horizontal pipes and weather side of vertical pipes (including valves) without crossing or spiraling.
