Freeze Heaters

[Leroy Eckert]

I would not mind having those if needed. Even with hydronic heat mine had a wire
type freeze heater, can't remember the name now since I removed them. I did not
know they were there. Mine were hidden wrapped inside the insulation of the
plumbing, they somehow got crossed over, shorted out an fried the water pipe in
half. The circuit breaker did not trip. I am just happy the water pump was on.
It did flood the bus up and down but that is better than burning up.

small electric radiant heaters similar to to an old fashioned
baseboard heater. Each one has a separate industrial thermostat that
allows temp setting from 30-110 degrees. There are two breakers for
these heaters.
