Due to the cold weather in winter, it is very easy to cause the residents' water supply terminal facilities to not work normally. In order to solve this problem, a better way is to install #electric heat trace#on outdoor pipelines and other facilities, and then wrap the insulation material and waterproof layer to achieve thermal insulation and frost protection. When the temperature reaches zero degrees Celsius, turning on the electric heating system can effectively prevent the water supply terminal facilities from freezing to ensure the normal water use of residents in winter.
Electric heat tracing
The terminal electric cable consists of a conductive polymer, two parallel metal conductors, and an insulating sheath. It can automatically adjust the output power with the temperature change of the heating system, automatically limit the heating temperature, can be arbitrarily shortened or used within a certain range, allowing multiple overlaps.
Self-limiting temperature electric heat trace
So how can water supply facilities be insulated and protected from freeze in winter?
1. Key protection faucets, outdoor risers, valves, roof tanks, exposed water pipelines, solar water heaters and other facilities;
2. Install electric heat tracing for frozen facilities such as water pipelines, and then wrap them with thermal insulation materials and waterproof materials;
Thermal insulation
3. The indoor room with faucet needs to close the doors and windows of the house at night to ensure that the indoor temperature exceeds zero degrees Celsius; If there is water supply facilities in the corridor, the windows of the corridor need to be closed;
4. At night, you can slightly open the faucet to make it continue to drip to ensure the flow of tap water in the pipe to avoid freezing at night, and at the same time prepare for water storage;
5. If you go out for a long time, you need to close the valve on the water meter before leaving home, drain the tap water in the pipe, and prevent freezing and cracking the water pipe.
