Underground Pex from Natures Comfort?
« on: November 04, 2013, 07:15:40 PM »

Hi guys I am getting closer to hooking up my first wood burner(ML36- P&M).  My plumber got me 100' of 4wrap from Natures Comfort.  Can anyone tell me anything about the quality, Good or bad about this stuff, just want to make sure it isnt junk....  Thanks in advance

I haven't installed any of it yet, but have several samples of it here they've sent me, it looks well made to me.  I wouldn't be afraid of it

That is good to hear.  I am juggling between this NC 4wrap and Logster.  The logster is twice as much or more in cost.  Cost is not my only concern though.  If I did my homework correct the 4wrap should actually have a better r-value, but my concern is longevity and durability.

Well when comparing those 2...  Ahhh it's hard to beat rep of logstor...   Heat loss, probably little to no difference..  Tile toughness goes to logstor though.  It's just a more professional product IMO, but for the price each person has to make up there own mind and weigh it out


What prices are you seeing on the 2?!  Logstor retails for $12.90/ft here at my shop but I've seen some places charge 17 plus

A place in town has a 98 ft piece he said he would sell me for 12 bucks a foot even.  the 4wrap I am not exactly sure yet, I am guessing somewhere right around 6 bucks.
