Heat tape started a fire? I'm ok today, the weather is warm-er and I kept the faucet dripping, I figured whatever happens happens, and I'm thinking the waterline slightly froze but not entirely. Maybe I'm wrong, but for a while the drip was only hot water, finally the cold water kicked in. I had one of those new-fangled inventions installed recently, one handle faucet + spray. Today it's OK, but of course I am worried about the future in more ways than one, because we plan to get out of town for about 6 weeks during the winter. I realize I need to ask a neighbor to check on those very cold days.
But I am curious about the heat tape. What it does -- and why did it start a fire? That doesn't sound good.
