One thing is for sure, I have never heard of someone regretting buying logstor, Uponor or Thermopex. For the investment, it's just not worth the risk. Ive replaced miles of drain tile pipes

Been running my owb all winter now and real happy with everything. The 100' of Logstor doesn't seem to be losing any heat at all, I even had a section that was covered in 2' of ice and it didn't even melt at all. I have to get some kind of tester and see how much I'm losing on my homemade lines, it's only 35' long but by using my hands it feels like a difference in temp but it might just be a mind thing.

When burying line you want to keep tree roots out of, bury some copper along the line. Old lightning rod cable, copper tubing, whatever will work. It will leech copper sulfate out and have the same effect as Root Destroyer, been doing it for ever to keep tree roots out of drain tile along woods, fencerows or whatever.
