Product Q&A
19 QuestionsQ: can i use a heavy dutiy extension cord to power a 200'ft cable with temp control
Asked by john 15 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffIt is not recommended by the manufacturer. The use of an extension cord with this cable may increase the risk of fire or electric shock. Please refer to pages 6 and 7 of the manual below for electrical requirements. http://s3.pexsupply.com/manuals/1255718308643/18332_PROD_FILE.pdf
No. I am useing 12/2 wireing to power mine. You might be able to use 14/2 wire. It only usese 8.5 amps.
Q: How many amps for the 200ft cable?
Asked by 15 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffThe 200 foot cable (part ADKS-1000) requires 8.3 amps.
I am an electrical contractor in northern NM and installed two of these gutter heaters and they are 12 amps on 120 volts. So a standard receptical will work and recommend a 20 amp single pole curcuit that is GFCI protected. Good luck

Q: Is there a thermostat to control on and off ?
Asked by Jerry 15 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffThe ADKS cable uses an RS2 ("Roof Sentry Controller") thermostat. The RS2 is set to turn on the ADKS cable only when the ambient temperature drops below 40°F and, at the same time, at least 10 inches of the moisture sensor wire detects moisture. These two conditions need to be present at the same time to turn on the ADKS heating cable. If one of the conditions is not present, it will turn off or it will not energize the ADKS cable.
Q: What is the thickness of the wire?
Asked by 15 years ago

Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffThe wire is 3/16" thick.
Q: What is the general effective temp. (degrees F) range for gutter and downspout deicing on a standard house? How cold is too cold for this product to work effectively?
Asked by Benji 15 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffThe ADKS cable is recommended to be operated when snow or ice on the roof is melting and the outside temperature is between 15°F and 35°F. Below 15°F, very little melting will normally occur and, in very cold conditions, the cable may not generate enough heat in some roof sections to prevent melt water from refreezing.
Q: Can this cable be cut if too long or do you have shorter lengths
Asked by CW 15 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffWhile the manufacturer does not recommend cutting the cable, we do have shorter lengths (ranging from 20 feet to 240 feet) available.

Q: I need to find out if this product is OK to use in gutters and downspouts only of a commercial shopping center that has a slightly sloping roof. We do not intend to use on the roof itself, just the gutters as stated? Leo
