Q:
|
What
types of heating cables do your carry?
|
|
A:
|
Warmzone carries a
large variety of both low- and line-voltage
heating cables that will work with almost every
application and project, including
floor heating, radiant space heating, driveway
heating, and ice
melting on roofs and in

Q:
|
What is
the difference between low- and
line-voltage heating cables
?
|
|
A:
|
The main difference
between low and line voltage cables is in
how the heating cables
are controlled. Low-voltage cables
require a control box and
transformer, whereas line-voltage
cables only require a thermostat.
Low-voltage cables are not safer
once embedded in a medium,
and operational costs are not
any less expensive. Line-voltage cables tend
to be less expensive
per square foot when heating smaller
areas. - MORE
