Can plastic PP pipes be heated with steam outdoors?

Try not to use them; PP pipes have a limited temperature tolerance

Use insulation measures; steam tracing is not advisable as it can accelerate the aging of PP pipes.

It’s cold in the north in winter; can electric heating be used? It’s to prevent explosions

Use warm water for heating; the steam temperature is too high.

It’s cold in the north during winter, so they are generally buried below the -80 cm frozen soil layer. Moreover, PP pipes do not have good heat transfer properties.

The maximum operating temperature for PP material is 80°C; steam is not allowed.
