Any advice on the best way to pull PEX through insulated PVC duct pipe? I've got about a 100' run with a 90 degree turn over the length of the run. I was thinking of assembling the duct pipe above ground, threading the PEX through, and then dropping the whole show into the trench. Thoughts?

Mike , I will be doing the same very soon , one tip I can give you that the dealer told me was to use two 45 degree elbows for your 90 degree turn at the stove and also to slide them down over the pipe one at a time after the rest of the pipe is in the ditch.He use's the green SDR 35 sewer pipe to protect the pex .
