Ask Frost King: Do I Need to Wait for the Expanding Foam Tape to Expand?
Переглядів 4,2 тис.2 роки тому
Do I need to wait for the expandable foam tape to fully expand before I install it? No, you don't need to wait for the tape to fully expand before installing it. However, if it does expand, that's not a problem. The tape compresses and expands as needed throughout the entire process. So whether that's thin off the roll or thick and expand it already, you'll be able to still install it and work ...
Ask Frost King: Do I Need All Sides of the Foam Tape Exposed to Air for it to Begin Expanding?
Переглядів 5532 роки тому
Do I need to have all sides of the foam tape exposed to the air for it to begin expanding? The answer is no. As long as the side opposite the adhesive is exposed to air, the product will still expand upwards. The sides can be completely covered in a tight wedge or groove, and you'll still get the benefits of expanding foam.

Переглядів 5612 роки тому
How do I know what size heat cable kit to buy for my house? Well, before you go to the store first measure and see how much exposed pipe you have, once you realize how much you have, then decide how much you want to buy. They come in increments of three, six, nine, twelve, and upwards in terms of feet, and you can get as much as you need.
Ask Frost King: What Kind of Tape Should I Use?
Переглядів 2 тис.2 роки тому
What kind of tape can I use to help hold the Heat Tape to the pipes? The most important thing is to not use masking tape. Any high quality electrical tape will work as long as is rated for one hundred and seventy-six degrees at six-inch intervals. Masking tape just won't cut it and is not strong enough for this job.

Should cover all the way to the bottom insulated way better I did mind the past 15 years
What a waste of time .. they already wrap these cylinders internally
I believe the active water storage area of an electrically-heated tank goes almost to the bottom.....in answer to you saying don't worry about the bottom 25%....I think here you do.
Thanks
This is useless if you live in the Northern States.
Yes, what yuppie in corporate thought it was a good idea to have annoying music especially like what is that a saxophone JHC. I'm trying to pay attention to what's being said and I have to filter out this damn music
Amazing that you would drop this trash demonstration on your offical channel 😂😂😂
Useless
My faucet doesn’t have a stem. However, I placed it over the part where the water comes out. Thank you much.
Very difficult it really hard to remove tape backing
Lol, the music
Good luck getting the tape to stick
I was having the same issue so I took a dry wash cloth and just went over the tape (before I removed the top part of adhesive tape obviously)
Thank you for the demonstration!
Video does not help. Will be returning this product and getting something different.
Im not a thermal engineer, but i think if my basement is 40 degrees f., the cold air will cause it to cycle more often.
Show the gfci outlet...what are you hiding?
Nice
Why does this have ada
You said not to apply beyond the frame but most videos o saw so apply beyond the frame.
10/10 for the puns
Can you use a 12 AWD extension cord with this?
Just in case anyone is watching 2024/2025, they discontinued this product.
Still at home depot
@nelsonnelson31 just bought some last night
Yup I got mine last week, still many in stock in SoCal stores
Too fast
Is that McLovin?
Can I use this tape on wood stove pipe. Shurtape 181dc
I live in am apartment with metal frame windows. The metal is epoxied over....i cleaned all 4 sides with water/soap, let it dry. I also used alcohol/swab and ran around the sill.....I originally use Duck brand but their tape kept popping off of the metal frame after a few days after installing. So I installed Frost king. It went up with no problem, its the end of season getting the tape off was the difficult part. The plastic film came off fine, but it did not take the tape with it. I tried warm soap/water, no good, I trued Goo Gone,,,no good, I truer fingernail polish acetone remover, no good.... The only way I got the tape off and it took time and patience is Gorilla duck tape. I took a piece of it, laid it over a section of the frost king tape, preshed it down and rubbed a few times, let it sit for couple min and then begin pealing, reapplied, pull, reapplied, pull etc....until the tape came off... Maybe frost king you should come up with your own tape removal product...
cables are plugged in but not working. I have power going to the rubber bulbous thing but nothing after that. Any thoughts on why they don't work now but worked all last winter? What's in the rubber bulbous thing close to the plug?
Quick and to the point. Awesome! Ty!
How do I install new end seal on this style heat trace? Thanks
Can cord be cut and shortened by putting new end on. Trying to find procedure to do this.
The music gave me cancer
Thanks for sharing, really takez stress away with knowing were to put extra tape ...
Why are we handling fiberglass with safety goggles and NOT a respirator?!
Because not everyone is a p*$$y! Breathe that fiberglass! You'll be fine!
The video and sound quality were great... thanks a bunch!!
I have some insulation material.. one side is shiny & the other kinda has a yellow cotton candy like 3 inch soft material. It’s possibly duct insulation. Would this be good for a dog’s house? My neighbors dogs are outdoor only pets & they both suffer in the cold. The owner only provides them with food. Any advice?
These don't tighten, any wind it's gone. Bought 3 of them
Absolutely worthless video, a xhild could do a better job of showing the product.
Thanks for your great video. If you have a 3D printer at home, or know someone, I can recommend the 3D cutting gauge "Schlitzrohr Deluxe" on Makerworld from Bambulab. Narrow and wide 90° angles or T-pieces can be produced in seconds with different insulation thicknesses. Happy Printing ❤
Worthless video
Good idea 💡
You really aught to treat the calk like children's clay, working it into the cracks & crevices!
In my first Apt. I used rope calk sound the mail slot, in my door. Years later when I moved, I pulled it out, took it with me, now It is filling cracks inbetween the concert blocks that are the foundation for my house! The stuff never gets stiff nor wears out! Question;.... I was told you can't paint over it, because the paint won't stick. If so; would primer solve that?
Will it trap moisture between the barrier and the window?
@1:50 *different
Thank you. It is a great product!
I feel like this video and many others on the topic are wildly out of touch with the issues home owners are dealing with. Being as this is the manufacturer of the product this video really is sadly comical. Your product does not fit the kerfing on my door. It is not easy, has not taken minutes, and the video demonstrates how out of touch the company is. I'm on my way to return this product because it does not work. I'll avoid all Frost King products in my future DIY projects.
Ok i didn't plan to cut it because i knew that's not safe! but do you have a video that shows how to repair it? I have 3 that i did not know hubby used last year for our camper that ALL 3 have damage 😡😡😡 that i need to repair because I'm the only one familiar with electrical but want to be safe with these! Thanks in advance! 😊
Talk to your local electrical parts store about a splice kit.
@@kevinpusey4902 thank you
the frost king hc6 shows pipe length of 3 to 7. so does that mean its good for up to 7ft?
I like the products, but your youtube page is horrendous. Also, your products are not as easy to fully understand with the instructions provided. Gotta do a bit better in those parts of your business. Most likely your wont even read this comment.
FYI - This product does not fit a Thurma Tru door frame kerf. It is too wide and deep to slide in. It took 2 plus hours, three videos including this one, and pressing the gasket in with a regular screw driver, then a wood block and hammer, and lastly at the recommendation of the final video, a crow bar, to discover the size was the issue. Hope this saves someone some time.
