This listing is for Insulated Pipe used for Outdoor Wood Furnaces/Boilers, Geo Thermal, Solar Heating or anywhere you need to transfer heated or chilled fluids. This product contains: 3 Wraps of Commercial Grade EPE Insulation 4" Commercial Grade Corrugated Tile 1 Blue Pex Line 1 Red Pex Line 2 End Caps String There are companies selling 5 wrap tubing that put it into a 4" tile. All of ours is in a 5 inch tile because there is too much insulation to fit into a 4" tile. Also, there are companies that only install the reflective barrier on one side of the insulation. And to make matters worse, they put it on the side away from the tubing which reduces the effectiveness of the reflective qualities.

This equates to .62 degrees per 100 ft on our 3 wrap products and .31 degrees per 100 feet on our 5 wrap products. Q: How deep should this be buried? A: Only 18 to 24 inches is necessary unless it will be driven over. If it will be driven over it should be buried 3 or more feet or placed within a PVC tube or culvert. Q: What is the string for? A: The string which is included with every roll of insulated pipe can be used to pull an electrical, thermostat, tracing wire or whatever through the corrugated tile. Q: What is the outside diameter of the tile? A: The 4" tile has an outside diameter of 4.7" and the 5" tile has an outside diameter of 5.7" Q: What does "Commercial Grade Corrugated Tile" mean? A: Our corrugated tile is DOT approved for commercial applications which means that it is thicker/stronger than other tile available to the general public. Q: How should the trench for the insulated pipe be prepared? A: The trench should be free of any rocks or debris. If available the corrugated tile should be surrounded by sand. Q: What is the difference between "Non Barrier" pex tubing and "Oxygen Barrier" pex tubing? A: Non Barrier pex tubing is used for "open" systems. Systems that are non pressurized. Those being ones that water will need to be added to periodically and that also require a type of water treatment. Oxygen Barrier pex tubing has a coating applied to the exterior of the tubing to prevent oxygen from penetrating the tubing. Oxygen Barrier pex is used for "Closed" systems. Systems that are pressurized and once filled do not require additional water to be added nor do they require a water treatment product. Many times parts are produced according to our specifications, and made to last.
