Use to wire a CDP-2 display panel on to a convenient viewing location, 50 Feet of #20 AWG 6 Conductor wire, silver tinning shielded and insulated for 300 volts to eliminate interference and increase safety.
Price range: $70.49 through $240.57
The primary connection between an ASE DS8 and DS9 Heat Cable Controllers and a CDP-2 remote monitor interface is an cable of superior quality and reliability. When exposed to outdoor conditions cheap cables (such as CAT 5) tend to deteriorate rapidly, leading to erratic and unreliable sensor performance. Similarly, using telephone wire, thermostat wire, or other cheap alternatives will also yield subpar results with the sensor.
“Heat Tape Pro did exactly what I needed it to do. Now I don’t have to worry about water leaking into my house, because I can tell when it’s working by the little light on the end of the cable.”

The Remote Display Panel Extender allows you to relocate your CDP-2 display panel up to 200 feet away from your heat cable controller. This lets you mount the display panel in a convenient indoor location where you can easily monitor your system status, rather than having to go outside to check on your heat cable controller.
We offer three length options: 50 feet, 100 feet, and 200 feet. Choose the length that best fits the distance between your heat cable controller location and where you want to view the display panel.
This extender is specifically designed for use with CDP-2 display panels and works with ASE DS8 and DS9 Heat Cable Controllers. If you have a different system, this extender won't be compatible.
No, we don't recommend it. Regular telephone wire, thermostat wire, or CAT 5 cable will give you unreliable performance and can deteriorate quickly when exposed to outdoor conditions. Our extender uses #20 AWG 6 conductor wire that's specifically designed for this application with proper shielding and insulation.
Our extender cable is silver tinned, shielded, and rated for 300 volts. This eliminates interference, ensures reliable signal transmission, and provides safety when running near line voltage wiring. Cheap cables often cause erratic sensor performance and system failures.
Yes. The cable has a 300-volt jacketing insulation rating specifically for safety when installed next to line voltage wiring. The shielding also provides ultimate high noise immunity to prevent electrical interference.
Installation involves running the cable from your controller to your desired display location and making the proper connections. While it requires some basic wiring knowledge, the connections are straightforward. If you're not comfortable with electrical work, consider having a professional installer handle it.
Pricing ranges from $70.49 for the 50-foot option up to $240.57 for the 200-foot length. The longer the cable, the higher the cost due to the specialized materials and construction.
Yes, the cable is designed to withstand outdoor conditions. Unlike cheap alternatives that deteriorate rapidly when exposed to weather, our extender cable maintains reliable performance in outdoor installations.
You'll need basic electrical tools for making wire connections and potentially tools for running cable through walls or conduit. The specific tools depend on your installation route, but no specialized equipment is required beyond standard electrical installation tools.
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.
