PipeX PRO | Smart Protection Against Frozen Taps & Costly Damage

You can if your setup allows it, but there are three catches. Many homes have no isolation valve on the outside tap, so there's nothing to turn off. Even when there is, it's easy to forget before the first hard frost (plumbers admit to forgetting their own). And it means losing the tap all winter, no car wash, no watering, no filling buckets.

PipeX PRO is the fit-and-forget version: slip it on once in autumn and the tap stays protected and usable, no procedure to remember on the cold night it matters.

Yes. Even frost-proof taps can freeze and burst if they're not fully drained or still have a hose connected. PipeX PRO adds an extra thermal barrier over the tap and pipe whatever the tap type.

Think of it as a winter coat for the most exposed point in your plumbing, cheap cover for an expensive risk.

Good question, and it's the gap most covers ignore. A cover protects the tap head, but if there's bare copper pipe running up the wall, that can still freeze, which is exactly why we include 10 m of PipeX insulating tape in the box.

Cover the tap, lag the pipe, the whole vulnerable run is protected, not just the spout.

It's made to fit all standard UK outdoor taps, wall-mounted, brass, awkward corners, and the adjustable drawstring pulls it into a snug, weather-sealed fit around almost any fixture.

If you leave a Hozelock-style connector on, you may need to pop it off first for the neatest seal. One tip: fit it on a dry tap, sealing in drips just gives the moisture somewhere to freeze.

Yes.The 3-layer ThermaShield™ insulation uses the same kind of materials as thermal workwear and is field-tested to -10°C through harsh UK winters.

And the maths is hard to argue with: a burst-pipe escape-of-water claim runs into the thousands of pounds (ABI), often with a hefty excess on top. At a few pounds, PipeX PRO is some of the cheapest insurance you'll ever buy.

Absolutely. It's made from tough Oxford fabric, UV-resistant and weatherproof, not the brittle polystyrene covers that crack and crumble to bits after one winter (the classic 1-star complaint with the cheap foam ones).

Slip it off in spring, store it, and it's ready to go again next autumn, year after year.
