Default propane tank regulator frozen

So mine is also frozen and my husband usually thaws it out but he is out of the country for the week. I was wondering about installing a water pipe heat cable - if the electric plug is a long ways from the regulator (the cable is 20' long), would that be safe to install, wrapping it on the gas line that is exposed above ground and right up against the regulator - does anyone think that would keep it unfrozen or not? I'm not sure how I could wrap the cable around the regulator itself. The instructions say to use for water pipe only but I never believe those, they're just trying to cover their butts. There is nothing in the instructions about propane or gas lines at all. Thoughts?
