ThermaHeat ® products are designed and engineered to protect RV holding tanks,
pipes and steps from freezing. Properly sized and installed ThermaHeat ® Pads
provide consistent & efficient protection as the first signs of freezing
winter weather approach. ThermaHeat ® offers a full line of products including
tank, pipe, elbow, and step pad allowing pleasurable use of your RV during
freezing winter temperatures.
ThermaHeat ® Tank & Step pads are thermostatically controlled. They will
operate as long as sufficient electrical power is supplied to the RV. The
thermostat is set to turn itself on at 45°F (5°C) and turn itself off when the
holding tank temperature reaches 67°F (20°C). As long as the on/off switch is
in the on position and electrical power is supplied, the thermostat will
continually cycle preventing freezing.

ThermaHeat ® manufactures product for the winter convenience of today’s RV’er.
The Model SL-T1218G-10G/16G works efficiently up to 40 gallon holding tanks.
The tank pads are thermostatically controlled, designed to turn on at 45°F
(5°C) and to turn off at 67°F (20°C).
Apply ThermaHeat ® tank pads to smooth and clean surfaces. Identify the lowest
point on the holding tank, closest to the drain. Clean the surface of the
holding tank with isopropyl alcohol and let dry. Peel back the paper from the
adhesive, and then press firmly and smoothly over the intended placement area.
DO NOT STRETCH THE PAD.
The SL-T1218G-10G/16G requires 13.5V DC to operate at maximum efficiency.
Please ensure the connection to the proper voltage and the proper “on-off”
switch is used. The connection must be fused with the correct amperage. If two
or more tank pads are to be used they must be connected in parallel.
Please ensure after installation the lead wires are securely located and will
not hang below the surface of the tank
