I need to get my bin wired up for fan and heater. Will PVC conduit bend enough to go around a 21 ft. bin or would you have to heat it somehow to form to bin. Probably 2 inch conduit. Hope this is enough info, if not, ask and I'll try to provide. Thanks, Chris

to bend PVC conduit you heat it..to heat it the easy way you put it up your exhaust pipe on your truck let it idle for some time to get the pipe easy to bend then let cool i done lots of times practice will help get your bends how you like them wear gloves it is hot.

A cheap heat gun works well to bend PVC conduit. Harbor Freight has them for around 10 bucks or so.Heat it and roll it or it will collapse on you. Don't just heat it on one side.

You can just heat it witha torch and then form it to the bin you will need to hold it till it cools some or use water If it's left in the sun for a while on a hot day it might spring enough to fit.

I put 3/4 inch pvc conduit around a 19 foot bin without heating it. No problem

You can put 3 #12 wire in 3/4" conduit. That ought to run just about anything 110 volt.
