I have a friend who lives in a secluded area with many acres of timber. He is getting ready to order a central boiler outdoor wood furnace. He asked me to post a thread to get the opinions of other people about the installation of the thermal plex pipe. He wonders if it would be better to put the pipe inside a corrugated pipe to help reduce heat loss and protect the pipe. He is in central Iowa and wondered about opinions on the depth to lay it. He is also putting it in his garage which is 100 feet from his house. He wants to be able to load it in the morning when he gets in his truck to leave for work and load it when he pulls his truck in at night. Any thoughts on this? His insurance company is ok with it but he said if they would not cover it he would drop the insurance on the garage as its value is not that great. Any thoughts or opinions would be appreciated. I don't want this thread to turn into a battle over whether they are good or bad. Thanks
