Yeah...I had some one tell me it was like $5/ft for the materials. Now,
using Professor Greenman's qualitative formula, it would be about $10/ft
+ all the extras :-) I don't know how accurate or not, but that sure
would keep me from doing an entire system in it.

Just figure a lot per foot, double it, and then add on the extras.

Thanks.
How do you determine the cost of operating a heat trace system?
That is important to convey

If ceiling is too costly wait until you see the price of heat
tracing an entire system.

They need store packaging material, idle pallets.
Ceiling is also too costly.

What are they storing?
Could they put in a false ceiling?

I have a client that is renovating an uninsulated 30,000 SF shed
warehouse.
He does not want to heat the building.
Dry system requirements for solid piled storage over 25Ft high in
35 Ft. high building are not available.
I am pushing for an ESFR wet system in a heated building.
Rather than heating an uninsulated building owner suggests we heat
the sprinkler pipe with heat cable and 1” insulation.
This method is in 13. Tyco has a system to apply heating cable to
branch lines and cross mains.
In over 50 years I have never seen or heard of heat tracing being
done. I think it is a mistake due to reliability and cost
There must be reasons this heating method is not being installed
on a sprinkler system.
What arguments can I use to avoid this method of keeping a wet
grid system from freezing.
