Nice and clear informations. In the next few weeks I will do about the same installation. Thanks !
I have known about this retro-line for a while now, but this is the first video I've come across that installs it in the exact same application I will need to do. The only difference is that I am going to a cased wellhead. Thank you so much for sharing this. I'm so excited to get this project rolling.
Wow this is such a great tutorial! I’ve had this project on the back burner for a decade and am now thinking how to attack it… and your approach is how I pictured it going. The toilet flange is a brilliant little enhancement to make the job just all that much better. Thanks for the inspiration!
Always great information from you!
Been looking for a channel like yours a long time! And you're a fellow Canuck to boot eh!? perfect. Cheers from northern BC.
good editing, info, and production :)
Very helpful. Thank you for your video
This is relevant to my interests.
Ballpark estimate for the cost of goods would be amazing. Thank you!
Wow this is awesome! Thanks :)
Interesting video. We have a well pump 75’ down here in north Texas. We run the water line up a trench at 18” deep to the house. When we had the freeze in 2021 I had pipes freeze in a garage apartment. The hot water cpvc lines broke so I am considering doing this where it froze. Thanks again for your video. Has it been performing well?
this is exactly what I need for my water line at the cottage. My black pipe currently just lies on the ground. Is the white pipe necessary or just an extra layer of precaution
Please advice on :
There is frozen pex pipe in the kitchen at a farmhouse, how can I install heating to that line.
Great instructional video. Question for you. I plan on running a waterline to the lake which will have a foot valve at the end. I would guesstimate that the distance of waterline from my proposed cottage location (not built yet) will be in the range of 200' - 250'. First, how do I get that heat trace cable into that 1 1/4" pipe? Obviously that distance would prove difficult to push by hand without resistance and the cable kinking. Do I prerope the pipe and then tie it to the wire helping it through the pipe??
Second, I purchased a bulk roll of heat trace from a guy, but there is no components to go with it. What will I need to complete the installation?
I plan on digging a trench deep enough below the frost line up to the lake, so I don't think that pipe insulation will be required, but I will slide this waterline into 4" Big O corrugated pipe for protection.
Would this work for extreme temps as in remote Alaska? How far is the wells from the pressure tank? What is the max length of pipe recommended for this system?
The only different thing I would do, is the "T" connection at the start point of the "EHT" aka self regulated cable, put the "T" upward, not downward, if there's a leakage, it won't sip down onto the electrical wire. I've been installing this for living for 14th years now, in the oil sands. :-)
Excellent video. One question - if you have a foot valve at the end of your water line - would you just pre-measure the length you need to reach the end of the water line and custom order it ?
If the valve is down the well just get a length that goes part way down
What brand do you recommend for the self regulating heating cable or exterior tape ?
Great video! What would the end of this line look like if using lake water instead of a well? Any considerations when connecting to a submersible pump?
Make sure it dose not go in the pump in the pump is above ground heat it and maby just leave extra pipe for spare heat tape
How do you get the end through 90 degree fittings
Would this work for a septic line to drain field?
How much does the Paladin retro line cost?
Can this be effective at 200 feet?
I just bought a campground that has plumbing lines already installed, but have no protection from freezing. Could I install this cable in an existing outdoor plumbing line? How long is the cable? Its several hundred feet at least from my well to the spigot that controls the campground water.
did you ever get an answer to your question. My water line is about 70 ft long
@@truenorthmuskoka9077 unfortunately I have not yet gotten an answer.
Anybody know the R value of that
That well is coming out of the bedrock? How's this work?
Hello Mannisto! Interesting story behind that well . . . back in the 1970s, a group of university geology researches approached the landowner for permission to take core samples of the bedrock. Permission was granted, and the core samples taken down to about 100 feet as I recall. Well, that hole turned out to be a dandy water well. In fact, it's so good that the water runs out onto the ground every spring, fall and winter. Even in a very dry year, the water is never more than a few feet from the surface. And the crazy thing is, this well is only about 30 feet from the shore of a lake and the opening of the well is considerably higher than lake level. The bedrock you saw in the video is 6 to 8 feet higher than lake level, and yet water still flows out under a bit of its own pressure. There are no other areas around that are higher than this well, either. Water, especially ground water, sure can be strange.
Thanks for watching and commenting!

@@baileylineroad There is greater than an ocean worth of fresh water deep in the earth. Has nothing to do with the aquifer. It's called primary water. When tap into it is endless and won't run out. It comes deep from under ground is up only through rock fissures and when tapped into those you get water. There places high in San Diego county in rocky hills in desert areas people have tapped into that way above any aquifer. Most geysers come from there. primarywaterinstitute.org
The earth has all the water it needs and all deserts and dry lands can tap it.
Primary water wells are not a new phenomenon. Stephan Riess was drilling wells all over California and in the Middle East as far back as the early 1930s. Pal has traveled to Africa numerous times, and earlier this year, drilled six wells in Kenya and Tanzania, producing over 3,000 gallons per minute in an arid land with less than 10 inches of rainfall per year."
"One cubic kilometer of granite, under the right conditions, will yield one billion gallons of primary water." - Stephan Riess
"Since antiquity, the source of water generated deep within the Earth, clearly defying the conventional scientific hydrologic cycle explanation, has been a mystery. How does one explain sources of water throughout the world that produce impressive quantities of fresh water, often in dry areas with little rainfall or at high altitudes? Besides numerous oases in Sahara, Arabic Peninsula, Middle East and the driest deserts elsewhere, and countless springs at mountain tops worldwide, there are clear examples of this phenomenon which stand out, like the Ain Figeh spring near Damascus, the Montezuma Well in the Sonora Desert in Arizona or the Zamzam well in Mecca."
"It seems that ancient civilizations had a profound understanding of this phenomenon, and morever a method of accurate locating of invisible underground water veins and streams. Without heavy drilling and excavating equipment, they have built impressive water supply systems all around the world. More than 5,000 years ago, ancient Persians developed the system of Qanats, which eventually spread around the region, and up to North Africa."
"The water wells of Gibeon and Beersheba, and huge cisterns of Masada in what is now Israel, are a total puzzle to modern hydrologists."
