I knew all this but it's great for me to hear again, because listening what you are saying makes me get better explaining to customers what I have done or gonna do. Extra tip for viewers!! Stable the cable 🥶, nail it down😬. Make sure no metal holds your cable (except aluminium-foil-tape), only us plastic clamps which can endure time and weather and never disform the cable. ( the cable should be hold not thightend!!) Why? Because metal clamps, screws, nails or stable can damage your cable, if you only brake the first layer the groundcale underneath it will oxidate and it won't pase the megger test (1000Volts). It is my number 1 cause when I got send out for a malfunction. Someone who puts isolation over my cable screwed into it. Selfregulating cable has a, (about left finger to right shoulder) length, in this length the cable will be 1 temperature, the next piece of cable can be a different temperature. That's why we call it selfregulating. If you cross this cable or or touch the cable with the cable, this cable will automatically keeps doing what it suppose to do. But if you us the constant wattage cable and you cross it or et the cable touch, than the cable will burn out and can even cause fire. So keep that in mind and look as they instal it. Thanks again Eric and good luck you guys. Greetings from the Netherlands.👋🖐👋🖐👋🖐
From a northern state but now in Memphis TN and learning buildings here are not the same as up north and we are having colder weather. A few years back we had cables fail, water line break and I started to learn more about this building. The area was not even properly insulated. Your videos will help me have conversations with contractors. Have yet to find a qualified installer.
Great information from a Great Company
Great video
Great...👍
So this cable is not an DIY project?
Do you know of a good company in Toronto Canada who installs heat cables?
