| Sponsored by: | Aero Tech Manufacturing, Inc. |
Electric Heating Cable is a blend of polymers and conductive carbon extruded between parallel copper bus wires. Core and bus wires are encased in jackets to prevent corrosion and breakage. When electricity is applied, the surfaces in contact with the cable are heated and will radiate heat to the surrounding area.
Typical applications are:
1) Under floors to provide radiant comfort heating.
2) Around piping so that encased liquids continue to flow.
3) In gutters to prevent the buildup of ice and snow. ...
Tips on Estimating Radiant Heating Electric Cable Costs from RSMeans
