Our TSK-723 Tee & Splice Kit lets you either splice two lengths of roof de-icing cable together or create a 3-way tee junction from a single power source. It’s essential for custom layouts where you need to branch heat tape into multiple directions or repair a damaged section without replacing the whole run. This kit can also be used for repairing damaged heat cables.
Yes. The Radiant Solutions Tee & Splice Kit works with any 10-13 mm self-regulating heat tape or de-icing cable.
Each kit includes enough components for one connection - either a straight splice or a tee. If your project requires multiple branch points, order one kit for each splice or tee junction.
Not at all if you follow the instructions. The kit includes everything you need, and installation is straightforward for anyone familiar with basic electrical work. If you’d rather not handle the wiring, we recommend using a licensed electrician or one of our Professional Installer Program contractors.
Yes. Instead of throwing away a whole run of heat tape because of a small cut or nick, you can splice it back together with this kit. It’s a cost-saving way to extend the life of your system and keep it running safely.
You get splice connectors, heat shrink tubing, sealing materials and detailed instructions. Everything you need to create one safe, weatherproof connection.
You’ll need standard electrical tools: wire strippers, a heat gun for shrinking the tubing, and a few basic hand tools.
Yes. The kit is UL certified for use in both the U.S. and Canada. When installed correctly, it creates a professional-grade, weatherproof connection that meets code and holds up to snow, ice, and freeze-thaw cycles.
One kit makes either a 2-way splice or a 3-way tee. For more complex branching, you’ll need multiple kits to build out the configuration you want.
The Radiant Solutions Tee & Splice Kit works with 10-13 mm self-regulating roof de-icing cables - the standard size range for residential and commercial ice dam prevention. If you’re unsure about your application, give us a call at 952-444-2044 and we’ll help confirm.
Because heat tape runs in wet, freezing environments. Electrical tape alone won’t seal against moisture and can cause the system to fail. This kit uses shrink tubing, sealant and UL-Listed connectors to create a safe, permanent, weatherproof bond.
We keep them in stock and ship the same day from Minnesota, don’t ‘cha know. (As long as you don't order too late in the day). Orders placed over the weekend will ship the next business day.

PipeFreezePRO comes with one or more 30ft rolls of high-quality fiberglass tape, but you can use any tape with a temperature rating of 150º F and above. Self-adhesive aluminum foil tape can be used but avoid standard tapes, including electrical tape and duct tape because they lose their adhesion when exposed to heat. Remember, it’s imperative to cover the pipe/heat tape assembly with pipe insulation (1/2″ minimum thickness). Think four easy steps: 1) cable on pipe, 2) tape on cable, 3) insulation on pipe/cable and 4) tape on insulation.
Pipe Freeze PRO can be overlapped during installation. This is a fundamental advantage of self-regulating heat cable over cheap, constant wattage cable found in hardware stores is that it can be overlapped without risk of shorting out or catching fire. So yes, overlap away!
The amount of heat cable needed for pipe freeze prevention is determined by a couple of simple factors including: Length of pipe, diameter of pipe, distance to power supply and number of valves.
Most of the time, we do not recommend a spiral cable application because it’s simply not necessary. It requires 3x the cable to do the same job.
Therefore, simply use a straight, single run of cable affixed to the bottom of the pipe (think 6 o’clock position) using the provided fiberglass installation tape. Next, add 1 foot of cable for every valve because you will be wrapping the valve with cable. For pipes less than 1″ in diameter, a single cable run is sufficient. For larger pipes, two cable runs are recommended. Keep in mind that plastic pipes are less thermally conductive so you may choose to use two cable runs on larger plastic pipes to be safe. Finally, if your outlet isn’t close to the pipe you are treating, factor in enough heat cable to reach your outlet (Pipe Freeze PRO does come with a 36″ power cord).
Finally, you must install insulation on your pipe and heat cable assembly in order for the system to operate effectively. See instructions for further details.
The cable can be exposed to wetness but the thermostat must stay dry to function properly. Use Pipe Freeze PRO for pipe freeze prevention applications only.
Consider using Heat Tape Pro inside of open drain pipes as that cable is rated for use in wet areas.

Pipe Freeze Pro’s integrated thermostat turns power on and off automatically to the cable to save electricity. The thermostat is the lump located between the power cord and the heat cable. The thermostat triggers the cable to turn on at 37ºF and off at 50ºF, with a sensitivity range of +/- 4ºF. It’s a great feature that makes Pipe Freeze Pro unique among heat cables on the market.
Yes and no. The cable is approved for exposure to wet conditions but you should keep the thermostat dry for proper operation.
No. The thermostat need only be exposed to cold air. It does not hurt to have the thermostat attached to the pipe but it is not necessary. If you choose to attach it to the pipe keep in mind that the thermostat should not be covered with insulation.
No. You want the thermostat to react to the cold environment so it triggers the Pipe Freeze Pro to turn on.
Every Length of Heat Tape Pro has a cord length of 10-feet that is not included in the listed/state length. Meaning: A 100-foot Heat Tape pro will have a 100 feet of heated cable + a 10-foot unheated power cord.
Every Length of Pipe Freeze Pro has a cord length of 3-feet (36″) that is not included in the listed/state length. Meaning: A 30-foot Heat Tape pro will have a 30 feet of heated cable + a 3-foot unheated power cord.
