Does this need to be run inside a pipe, e.g., like electrical cables? And if so, does it need to be a specific material for the pipe?

No the cable is adquately sheilded . Unless the building code where you live requires the use of conduit . If you want to not see the cable you can use the hdmi recepticle plate and run the excess cable in the wall.

For an interior installation, no. If you are going to run it outside (unlikely with HDMI cable) you should enclosing in metal or PVC conduit.

Dear Natalya,Thank you for your question regarding our BlueRigger 35 foot HDMI cable! The cable can be run behind the wall, but doesn't require a pipe like an electrical cable. We recommend keeping the cable away from any electrical cables to prevent signal interference.Please contact us at service@bluerigger.com if you have any additional questions.Thanks,BlueRigger LLCservice@bluerigger.com

Nope. It's just a regular HDMI cable. It's rated for in wall installation, which just means it has some type of fire resistant property. It's a very good cable for a very good price!

How about foam pipe insulation? Secure maybe with some type of tape or maybe zip ties?

I'm not quite sure how you would mount this on a pipe? Are you talking about using a pipe as a vent?

It's most effective if insulation is applied over the cable wrapped pipe. These heating tapes really don't get very warm because of the low wattage ( good) so applying insulation is needed in cold conditions. Fiberglass or closed cell foam can be used as insulation. If you use fiberglass you need to keep it dry. To keep everything in place I like to use a self-bonding silicone rubber "tape" because it's not bothered by cold or heat. This stuff is available as "emergency repair tape" at most auto parts stores. Otherwise, you can use conventional tape or even string, cable ties etc. Also, pay attention to keeping the heating tape firmly against the pipe for best heat transfer.

It depends where you are installing. It needs to be in can if it comes in contact with insulation.

Yes, to ensure safe operation it is extremely important that it has a properly grounded electrical source. It also requires proper ventilation. For our installation, we used a grounded circuit in our garage, and ran the venting pipe from the unit, across the garage ceiling, and out to an exterior wall. The system has performed flawlessly. There was an initial issue with getting all the air out of the pipes and adjusting the water pressure right after installation, but the HVAC company that installed it took care of that problem.

No, just twist it around the pipe and used little wire ties to hold it. I then covered it with a self sticking insulation from a ace hardware.

Only in PVC pipe an weather tight boxes . not the cable by itself. Probably would hold up but not rated.

You would have to check with 3m the manufacturer. We used it on a exhaust pipe from a heater.

No. It's simply a ceramic resistor inside the plastic pipe and relies on natural connection. I had to put in two in a large safe.

Yes. This cable is self regulating to make sure there are no hot spots/burn outs. The cover picture on our box shows foam insulation over the tape installed on a pipe.Hope this Helps Mike.

I would not bury this directly in the ground, needs to be put into electrical PVC conduit. Or the wire will degrade if installed directly in the dirt,and stop working

You shouldn't need anything other than possibly a nipple for the shower connection going into the wall. You have to see how big your pipe is in the wall. But if you have the usual sized pipes, you shouldn't need any additional material.

I would use a high grade for 100-150 feet, electrical requires thicker wire the longer the run if you will

Foam insulation is fine. We have used it on pex with no issues, but you need constant water in pipe. (Do not use on drain lines it will melt the plastic)

need to consult manufacture! It may get to hot for a pipe that is only for drainage and not filled with water all the time???

Yes it can be used inside or outside. It can be used on almost any kind of pipe,(iron,plastic,copper& etc).If you are in a very cold area, it is best to wrap it with insulated pipe wrap.
