If Hades has frozen over,  your water hose probably has too! The weather forecasters will warn you about the first cold spell of the season, but they have no idea how much it can affect even the tiniest aspects of your barn, your RV, your business, or your life.

Our parts department is now stocking 25 and 50 foot PIRIT Heated Hoses with thermostat control.  Replace your standard, and probably frozen, hose with a PIRIT Heated Hose, plug in the grounded power supply, and you can be confident that when the temperature dips terrifyingly low, you won't be out in the elements pondering at what point the water in the hose actually froze solid. Even better, when the temperature is above freezing, the built-in thermostat on your PIRIT Heated Hose will keep the heating element off, preventing wasted electricity. No worries: It's automatic.

We've always heard that electricity and water don't mix, so why is the PIRIT Heated Hose safe? Because it was made to be safe, that's why.  The hose is certified to UL and CSA safety standards for outdoor use. What is UL/CSA? UL stands for Underwriters Laboratory. It's an independent product safety organization that stringently tests the safety of all sorts of products and set standards for building safe products. They're the same folks that make sure your extension cords won't light up more than you bargained for. CSA, Canadian Standards Association, is another super strict testing organization based in Canada, where they know cold. So, plug it in at your barn, house, RV or business, and rest easy. In fact, you can even take a sip of that free flowing water, because it's also the ONLY heated hose on the market rated DRINKING WATER SAFE with UL and CSA. No matter how far below freezing the temperature goes, your PIRIT Hose will keep the water flowing.

The PIRIT™ Heated Hose is must-have equipment for winter Campers and RVers. No more hassling with heat-tape. The PIRIT Hose keeps the water flowing to your Camper or RV year-round. Made with PVC materials approved by the FDA for potable water, the PIRIT Heated Hose provides safe drinking water for human consumption. Tested to minus 40°, it  will work in the harshest environments.

All PIRIT Heated Hoses are thermostatically controlled. That means they know when to turn on AND turn off based on the outside temperature. Just plug in, unroll and leave your hose to do its job and your water will keep flowing.

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION TIP FOR RV AND CAMPER USERS: RV and Camper users should note that the thermostat in the PIRIT Hose must not be covered or insulated. To locate the thermostat, see the small rectangular bump under the black nozzle cover at the male (water out) end of the hose. That thermostat must be exposed to the ambient or outside temperature in order for the hose to work properly. When you attach the hose, be sure the thermostat is not in a heated or insulated compartment.
