Pipe Frost Protection using DEVI electric heating cables

Electric heating pipe frost protection systems provide an effective solution to prevent liquid supply systems, such as freshwater pipes, wastewater pipes, cooling water pipes, supply water pipes, and sprinkler systems, from freezing during winter. These systems are also useful for maintaining liquid temperature. Pipe tracing is commonly recommended in a wide range of buildings and applications, including multi-family and single-family homes, agricultural buildings, hotels, commercial and industrial facilities, public buildings, supermarkets, sanitary systems, and more.

During the winter, problems with freezing in fresh water, waste water, cooling water, supply water and sprinkler systems can be avoided by internal or external pipe heating. Pipes installed outdoor or inside unheated premises, even if insulated, can be subjected to low temperatures that results in ice generation inside pipes. When water turns to ice its volume expands and in closed pipes ice becomes strong enough to cause pipe bursting. This results in damages, water leakage and costly repairs. DEVI heating systems provide an affordable, easy to install and adjustable solution in the form of a thermostat regulated heating cable. This solution provides a pipeline owner with a safe, maintenance free and sustainable system ensuring proper performance for years. DEVI’s pipe tracing systems can be used for inside and outside applications in individual pipes and pipelines as well as for overhead and buried pipelines.
