Anyone use that heat tape to keep the pipes from freezing? Specifically on PEX A pipe?

Curious how much heat actually gets into the plastic pipe to do what it is to do?

Guessing you tape it down then insulate right?

Is it even safe for PEX pipe? Not going to burn into the pipe?

How long do they last? Heard 3-5 years.

Are these fire hazards ran in the attic?
