Heatrracing.ie is owned by Trevor Doherty, someone with 30 years experience in the construction industry. For the last 10 years he has developed his underfloorheating company in conjunction with Elektra, Europe’s largest and well renowned supplier of electric heating cables. Whilst the underfloor heating side steadily expanded throughout the 10 years the company had numerous requests to assist with Frost Protection problems on a domestic scale, but very often commercially. Elektra as a company helped provide solutions for all these problems.

Whilst helping one particular individual Glynn Macarthy, they had numerous conversations and decided to develop and patent a system to solve pipe freezing problems in domestic attics. Glynn has been plumber and pipe fitter with over 20 years experience working on many large commercial projects. After 2 years of work they came up with a system called Froststop using high quality products form a few suppliers but still using Elektra cables.

Other than this Trevor now decided to expand the Heattracing (commercial term for frost protection) side of the company and offer solutions and materials for all sorts of frost problems, driveway, footpaths ,cold storage, freezing tanks and pipes in commercial situations. So to help separate the 2 sides he has created a new website to handle commercial problems.
