Pipe Heat Trace Systems for Freeze Protection

Warmzone designs Pipe Heat Trace systems that keep potable water, process lines, and drains from freezing. Heat Pipe Trace uses self-regulating heating cable installed along the pipe under insulation, and optional sensors or thermostats can automate operation for efficient protection.

With Pipe Heat Trace, the self-regulating cable increases or decreases heat output as temperatures change and will not overheat even when overlapped. This helps maintain pipe temperature for freeze protection or light process maintenance while delivering reliable, energy-efficient performance.

Why Warmzone

Proven, self-regulating cable and constant-wattage options for residential, commercial, and industrial needs. Automated controls are available, systems are energy efficient and low maintenance, and our team supports you from design through installation.

Expert design support, free installer training, and live technical help ensure your Heat Pipe Trace solution is specified and installed correctly for long-term performance.

How It Works

Self-regulating heating cable senses temperature changes along the run and varies output accordingly. The parallel-circuit core prevents overheating, even at contact points or overlaps, while helping maintain pipe temperature for reliable freeze protection.
