Description
In-Pipe Drinking Water Heating Cable with Integrated Y-Fitting
MAXKOSKO In-Pipe Heating Cable with Brass Y-Fitting provides internal freeze protection for compatible pressurized drinking water lines, buried pipes, well systems, cabins, farms, and seasonal properties.
The integrated brass Y-fitting creates a smoother 45° cable entry path, reducing the need to source a separate T-fitting and simplifying installation compared with the standard in-pipe model.
Integrated Brass Y-Fitting
Provides a built-in cable entry point with a smoother 45° insertion angle.
Potable Water Certified
CSA and NSF/ANSI 61 certification support use in compatible drinking water pipe systems.
230 PSI Pressure Rating
Designed for compatible pressurized residential, rural, well, and farm water lines.
Built-In GFCI Plug
Adds electrical leakage protection for properly installed 120V wet-location applications.
Important Before Ordering
Inspect the Cable and Confirm the Pipe Route
Integrated Fitting: The brass Y-fitting is included, reducing the need to purchase a separate T-fitting for the main cable entry.
Recommended Pipe Size: Designed for compatible pipes 3/4 in and larger. Confirm that every pipe connection, adapter, valve, and bend provides enough internal clearance.
No Sharp Elbows: Do not force the cable through sharp elbows, restricted fittings, blockages, collapsed pipes, or unknown internal routes.
Factory Inspected: Every MAXKOSKO cable is fully inspected before shipment. Inspect the complete outer jacket, end seal, and fitting again before installation.
Outer Jacket Must Be Undamaged: Cuts, cracks, abrasion, crushing, or end-seal damage can cause leakage or electrical failure. Do not install a damaged cable.
Contact Support: If you find any damage before installation, stop and email photos to maxkosko@maxkosko.com.
Avoid Forceful Installation: Insert the cable slowly and gently. Pulling, hammering, twisting, or forcing it through a tight route can damage the outer jacket and lead to water leakage.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the advantage of the Y-fitting version?
The included brass Y-fitting provides an integrated cable entry with a smoother 45° angle, reducing cable stress and simplifying installation.
Is it suitable for drinking water?
Yes. This model is designed for compatible potable water systems and is listed as CSA and NSF/ANSI 61 certified.
Can I force it through a tight elbow?
No. Forceful installation can damage the outer jacket or end seal and may cause leakage. The pipe route must allow smooth and gradual cable insertion.
What if I notice a cut or abrasion before installation?
Do not install the cable. Send photos and your order details to maxkosko@maxkosko.com.
Does it include automatic thermostat control?
No. Self-regulating technology adjusts heat output but does not fully turn off. Pair it with the MAXKOSKO 120V Thermostat Controller for automatic temperature-based power control.
Controller & Product Selection
For automatic seasonal control and reduced energy use, pair this cable with the MAXKOSKO 120V Pipe Heating Cable Thermostat Controller.
Before ordering, confirm that the line is a pressurized drinking water pipe and that the cable route does not include sharp or restricted internal bends.
