Weather resistance – in addition to withstanding low temperatures, PVC tape is resistant to harsh weather conditions thanks to its PVC coating. The tough, outer layer will cope well with metal corrosion and bad weather.

One of the most common uses of heat tape is in plumbing systems. During winter months, exposed pipes are at risk of freezing, which can lead to ruptures and significant water damage. By applying heat tape directly to the pipes, homeowners can ensure that the water remains at a safe temperature, protecting their property from costly repairs.
