Frequently Asked Questions

The type of clip you need for your heat tap installation is based on what kind of roof you have.

We are building a hand guide to identify what kind of roof you have and find the clips that can/should be used with that roof-type.

View the Guide Explaining What Clips You Need Here

To know how many clips you need to buy, there are two things you need:

  1. Some Basic measurements regarding your installation area & some considerations to note
  2. Our handy Heat Tape Calculator to punch in your measurements & notes

We have a guide on How to Measure for Purchasing Heat Tape that will help you. Once you have your measurements, you can find our Heat Tape Calculator here.

Yes We Do. However, it is fairly costly.

We have a calculated rate based on the product in your cart if you choose to ship to Canada or Alaska.
More can be found here.

Including a thermostatic heat tape switch or controller in your installation will cut power to your heat tape in times it is not needed. This will lessen your environmental footprint and save you money.

Savings will always depend on the weather and how often you have temperatures above the threshold that the switch turns on your heat cable. In most situations where heat cable is needed, savings will offset the cost of the ThermaCord and then some.

We don’t install heat tape, but we know who does.
