Suitable for
- Snow melting on driveways and walkways
- Ice prevention in gutters and downpipes
- Roof edge heating to prevent ice dams
- Ground surface heating for ramps and parking areas
When it may not be suitable
This cable is not intended for indoor floor heating applications or use in environments where the temperature exceeds the cable's thermal rating. It is specifically designed for outdoor snow and ice melting and should not be used for general space heating or in contact with materials that cannot withstand high temperatures.
Key specifications
- Voltage: 230V
- Power output: 30W/m
- Total length: 85m
- Application: Outdoor snow and ice melting
How to use
The cable should be installed by a qualified professional in accordance with local electrical regulations. It is typically laid out in a specific pattern depending on the surface type, such as in sand, concrete, or directly in gutters, and secured using appropriate mounting accessories. The system should be connected to a compatible thermostat or control unit to ensure efficient energy consumption and automatic operation based on temperature and moisture sensors.
What to consider before purchase
- Ensure the total length of 85m is sufficient for your specific installation area.
- Verify that your electrical supply supports the power requirements of this cable.
- Check that you have the necessary control systems or thermostats for automated operation.
- Confirm compatibility with the surface material where the cable will be installed.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance and safety, always use a dedicated control system with moisture and temperature sensors to activate the heating only when necessary. Ensure the cable is not crossed or touching itself during installation to prevent overheating.
