Frozen pipes? Thaw pipes fast and safely!
Use one of our Electric Pipe Thawers and get rid of those Frozen Pipes.
Save time, labor and money. Simply attach the cables to the frozen pipe on either side of the blockage. Plug in the cord and watch the ice simply melt away and the water begin flowing. Even works when the frozen pipes are buried in walls or under floors.
Passing low voltage, high current AC electricity through a frozen water pipe is a quick way of thawing it. With this method it is possible to thaw iron or copper pipes buried in the ground or concealed in building walls. This method requires that there be an area of unfrozen water under standard pressure on one side of the frozen area and an open faucet on the other (downstream) side, or be in a “working” closed loop heating system. With an electric pipe thawer it is only necessary to heat the frozen pipe enough to melt a thin film of ice on the inside of the pipe. The warmer water under standard pressure in the pipe before the blockage will seep through the melted film and quickly melt the rest of the ice. Once sufficient ice is melted a flow will be resumed towards the open faucet downstream or low pressure side of the blockage.
Our units have 24′ leads, and are not designed to have longer leads attached.
