Prevent Pipes from Bursting...and Fix Burst Pipes!

Jan 28th 2011 10:59PM As my main pipe frozed this pass week in my mobile home. I took a heat gun to the pvc pipe to thow it out. I had heat tape on it and wraped. Heat taped failed after 3 years. I made a single run along the bottom of pipe. Somone said to run 2 heat tapes and only plug one in, then one fails plug in the other one. Is this a good idea or no? and no I wouldn't cross lines.
