The Nuheat R8P5-120-500 cable is a self-regulating heating cable designed for residential and commercial roof and gutter de-icing. Choose 8-watt 120v cables for smaller runs or when limited power is available

This 500 Ft Spool of 120v cable can be cut to length as needed on the job site and is also available in 250 Ft. Use a heat shrink Power Connector at the beginning of the cable and an End Seal to terminate. We also have T splice connectors available and all Nuheat Heat shrinks are UL listed and of the highest quality.

It creates and maintain paths for melted snow and ice to drain, preventing major damage and expensive repairs that can be caused by icicles and ice dams.
