LogStor in Basement
« on: October 09, 2018, 06:37:54 PM »

Just put my LogStor pipe in the ground today. I left lots at the furnace end for connections but I am unsure about how much to leave inside once I get through the basement wall. I had a little extra so I just stuck it through the wall thinking I could cut to length tomorrow.
Is there a recommended length of pipe to leave sticking through the wall. Don't want to leave to much but also don't want to cut it off in case there is a reason that I am not seeing.

I plan on bringing the copper right down to where the LogStor comes through the wall. Is this also the recommended way ?

Can be as far in as you want. I would leave enough to allow cutting off and replacing fittings a few times. If for some reason you ever have to replace the fittings you want to make sure you have pipe to work with.

Does anyone using Logstor have any pictures of what the pipe setup looks like when it comes in through the wall ? I am trying to get the pipe from the floor to the ceiling to go across the room without using too many elbows and restricting the flow.
