Looking for help calculating heat transfer for PEX ground loop project

[QUOTE="Averagesupernova, post: 6849872, member: 7949"] The loss from the tank will be much larger than the heat loss from one of the units in the link I provided due to ground contact. An automatic waterer is designed to avoid contact with anything that can draw heat away from the bowl Also, the more animals that drink from an automatic waterer, the less trouble they will give. Their thermostats can be set so that incoming water is warmer than the setpoint. So the more water that is drank, the less the bowl heater needs to run. - So, while this post gives no help in determining the heat loss, I thought it was worth pointing out the differences. It's a no brainier to me. I'd use one of these before attempting what the OP wants to do. [ATTACH=full]321573[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
