Thanks for the introduction to the forum. I am thinking about digging a trench 6 feet deep to lay pipe. I will also put 55 gallon drums filled with water down there and wrap the pipe around them (the pipe being 4 inch drain pipe). I am hoping that because water is a great way to transfer heat that it will really help cool/heat the air in the pipe. I am also thinking about putting close to a foot mulch at ground level to further help with cooling the ground. What are your thoughts about this?
