pipelines in Russia froze always, bringing public utilities and a lot of inconvenience to tenants.Repeat the mistakes of operation of the central water supply systems in their own farm as something not desirable, so smart people before their water supply network to dissolve a private home, be sure to think about the reliable insulation of feeding tubes or technological device used to heat the working fluid.We thought, and we along with them.

Promptly warm water systems (ideally - in the automatic mode) all dream of the owners of country estates.Without water, really bad, and unfreeze the frozen sewage pipe in general the whole household and financial disaster.In most cases, saving the right (recessed) laying pipeline networks and external qualities of the insulation, sometimes is necessary to solve the problem quickly.In this case, the heating cable inside the pipe becomes a panacea.

device heating cable for pipes elementary, like all brilliant: an ordinary electric heater (TEN), sealed in a plastic bag with a heat-resistant thermal conductivity, perfectly matched to the operating conditions.Consider the details:

  • basis: conductive, often copper wire or as they like to call the heating wires;
  • polymer coating wires in the cheapest version of the PVC, but variations from different vendors, there are many;
  • copper braid internal cable for heating water supply system - the most functional part of the whole device;
  • outer polymer sheath, is responsible for the transfer of heat to freezing pipes.

purpose of laying the heating cable for heating pipe constructions both outside and inside is also quite obvious.When the outside temperature drops below -5 degrees of autonomous water supply systems already having local areas of freezing and severe frosts are able to paralyze the Russian (or destroy) the entire system.

advantages and disadvantages of the heating cable for pipes

recognized immediately that conduct electrical cable for heating on the surface, and even more so, in water conveyance systems, we think of last resort, when all other ways of protecting water pipeline fromfrost had been exhausted.Any mechanical deformation, insulation breakdown tokoprovodnikov and municipal water issues is more than overlap the shock electric shocks.The main disadvantage we have identified, move on to the positive.

  • properly tuned equipment connected to the heating cable for water networks relieve owners from the problems of maintaining a stable operating temperature in the water pipes;
  • heating cable in the pipe is easy to use: elementary plugging into the power outlet and wait for the result;
  • surface option requires some installation work, but in emergency cases, such winding can prevent not only freezing, but also mechanical destruction of the pipeline;
  • guaranteed domestic manufacturers of cable for heating the coolant level of security maintained water pipes;
  • reliability of the cabling under nominal conditions and uninterrupted operation of power grids.

Laying and installation of the heating cable

It makes sense to consider the two options of water supply networks with devices like heating elements: regular and emergency.

  1. In the first case we have a blatant negligence designers of outdoor wiring water communications were not able to provide quality, guaranteed insulated supply lines.Cable electric heating (inside the pipe or outside the stroke) are a necessary measure.
  2. The second option can be classified as force majeure, when the operating conditions of the aqueduct go beyond the usual standards of climate and heating pipes indoor or outdoor electric cable become the only solution.

Installation of such systems are best left to licensed professionals, and to take into account the operation of the elementary economic factor - the consumption of heating mains cable is an average of 50-60 watts per meter.Warming up area of ​​50 m for one day will cost you about 900 rubles.Do not worry, this is the limit of power consumption in arctic conditions.
