Review: Fantastic product, Indicator light is great! - Fantastic product, works as described. Helps keep my water manifolds at a site less prone to freezing when the weather gets colder. Love that they have a power indicator when in use and the thermostat seems to be spot on when I've been using it with our plumbing.
Review: Install properly to avoid fire. - They work well. My pipes freeze each winter, but not this year with the cables. I did have about 4 extra inches of lead on my cold water line. The cable does not double up on itself, and I put fire proof plating below it in the unlikely even that it were to sag to the wood when it got hot. I am very pleased with this product.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what are the monthly expense to run**
A: To update Mike's answer for 2022. 7 watts per foot @ 30ft = 210watts. Divide by 1,000 = .21kW x 24 hrs = 5.04 kWh per day x cost of electricity in your area (this ranges from $0.2254 to $0.0937 depending on your state) so it could range anywhere from ~$0.47 to ~$1.14.

**Q: Can this be used on pex plastic pipe?**
A: You can use it on plastic pipe if the pipe will always be filled with water, but don't wrap it - just run a straight line. See the Frost King website: http://www.frostking.com/wp-content/uploads/Pipe_heat_cable_trifold.pdf

**Q: is it thermostat controlled and if not, at what temperature will it be activated? there is existing pipe insulation can the cable go on top of it?**
A: Frost King HC6A 6 Feet Automatic Electric Heat Cable Kits, Black
Keep your pipes from freezing in the winter. With a built-in thermostat, the Frost King Electric Heat Cable Kit automatically keeps your water pipes from freezing. No more frozen pipes!

For use on 2 in. metal and plastic water pipes.
Keeps water flowing down to -40 degrees Fahrenheit.
Plug has a power indicator light.

**Q: Is it safe to have the cable wrap the pipe inside a foam pipe insulator cover, or will it melt the foam insulator?**
A: I ABSOLUTELY had it melt foam insulator before.  Do NOT overlap it.  I have pics of where it burned through foam pipe insulator because I sued contractor for almost catching my home on fire

*by M***L on January 20, 2026*

Works great. Our well kept freezing up, no longer a problem. I also combined this with the frost king insulation. I would suggest reading the installation booklet. I see some review pics where the heat tape was obviously installed wrong. (You are not supposed to coil it around the pipe) Plus the black sensor is to be placed against the pipe.
