Cold Weather Plumbing

[Terry Neal]

Ernie, I have seen somewhere (CRS again) an insulation with built in
heat tape for water lines. It's something like that foam wrap that is
used on residential water lines with the addition of the "heat tape".
You just add more sections & plug them together as needed. Kind of like
Xmas lights. I'll do some searching.
