can this product be used on pvc pipe

Yes. The way I use all mine is to wrap an indoor outdoor temp sensor right in there with the heat tape. Then spray that foam insulation all around the set up. The sensor tells you what the temp is & I was pleasantly surprized at how much heat these things put out when you insulate them. Well above freezing.

I can't say for sure. It should say on the package or you can call the manufacturer. I use it on copper and it works fine. I don't believe it gets so hot that it would melt pvc.

Yes. I have mine wrapped around 1" pvc drain pipe from natural gas boiler. Working like a charm through temps down to 0. No noticable increase in electric bill.

I don't see why not. It doesn't get that hot. But if experts write in listen to them first!

The melting point for PVC pipe is about 176 degrees (F). The cable should not get that hot. Also it says "For metal and plastic water supply pipes" on the front of the package. Hope this helped.

Yes mine is on a furnace to keep the water collector from freezing, it is plastic hooked to PVC and it is fine

Not very well, of course not many kinds of paint bond well to PVC. They tend to peel off no matter how well you had them covered.

Probably. I haven't had to do that yet. Also i don't know about using flex tubing. It calls for pvc pipe,thats what i used.

Yes it even works on PVC. I have not noticed any great changes.I also bought their contaminate water gauge and checked when I installed and 3 mos later No change at all in the readings.

pvc pipe has some kind of chlorine product in it which breaks down the plastic film. if you paint primer on the pvc pipes before you put the film on it, it will not degrade the film and the warranty is not voided. i didn't do the primer and now am patching my film where it has rotted against the pvc.

Yes, Scalewatcher works better on PVC than on metal pipes, please read more details here aquagenesisusa.com

Yes, I think PVC pipe would be much better than the flimsy material used to make the terrible one I bought! It would need to be attached to a base large enough to support it. Good luck.

I used it with rigid PVC on a pool filter, but assuming the flex PVC has the same OD as rigid PVC; it would attach the same - use PVC primer, adhesive and slip together.

It will work on PVC and some plastics. I don't think it would work well on harder plastics as I am sure these bits would chip it badly.

Yes. I used it in buried PVC pipes. It is supposed to be capable of direct burial but I wanted it protected.

If you watch the video they show an example of that. You can glue 2 pieces together but make sure you use the correct glue. Do not use PVC pipe glue.

I use it on my vinyl siding with no problems, so I think it would be all right on PVC fencing.

According to manufacturer's info on package, it can be used on PVC pipe. They recommend wrapping with insulation to hold in the heat, however in the case of PVC pipe, I would not seal it off at either end for fear that it would retain too much heat.

Of course you can attach PVC to it. Thats how Ive always done it, or the flex hose too. Its just common 2" threaded PVC piece you find at any home depot. Its a slip on the other side so you can glue in a 2" pipe and go from there. Both the intake and the exhaust are the same finer thread.

Use PVC blue like you use for white PVC pipe. Don't put glue on the inside of the joint because it will block the internal valve.

in would cut through a thin sheet of PVC no problem. But the tool is not large enough to cut through pipes it is made for flat thin sheets of metal & plastic or thin wood it is a very well made tool & I highly recommend this tool no doubt.... Thank You for your question?

U would need some adapters from the intex fittings (hoses) to pvc, check out YouTube for more details on this
