Looking good. I'm gonna pour a pad under mine next year.


Did that with bags - hand mixed. Used the fiber reinforced quikrete. Formed up with some scrap lumber and used my 2' shop broom for the finish. I did buy an edging tool for the edges though.

Used this concrete: http://www.quikrete.com/ProductLines/CrackResistantConcrete.asp

Z supply is probably the best wrapped pipe. The outer case is thicker than normal corrugated pipe and if you double tile it that's even better and still be much cheaper than logstor.

Some parts and progress. Added a couple sots of the truck at Craig's when I picked the boilers. I ended up going with a local supplier for the supplies. Only because I didn't call Craig back in time to get it on his truck. He tried to get ahold of me several times but i missed him.

Some progress finally. Spent a week in China. Then had sick kids for week and a half. Got the T-pex and conduit in the trench and poked through the basement wall. Pulled the wire through the conduit and started filling the trench back in. Got a few pics. Will post later.
