I have 3 wrap double tiled and am very impressed with it. If they had 5 wrap when I bought mine I would've got it and put it inside of 6 inch PVC. As far as a tile type ped its the best in that category.

Victor6deep What company did you get your insulated pipe from. Z supply or dealer, there is a company name Badger. Do have any idea of how much heat loss you may have. I'm a little over 100 foot from my house.

Asking one guy is heat loss over 100' will not tell you anything at all.

His flow could hide any discrepancies by simply moving the water faster to hide the losses

Z supply 5 wrap is good tho, it loses .48 degrees per 100ft run at 5 gallons per minute
