    Buried Water Pipe


    I want to trench and bury a seasonal water supply line to an out building that is about 150' away from the main house. What would be the best material to use for that?

    Thanks

    I would use pe pipe with a ball valve & drain valve at the house so as to drain down in winter.

    Use Pex. If it's seasonal set it up so you can blow it out with air. EJW

    I think the drain down capability is the key.

    I'd even consider using sched. 80 pvc.

    I'd like to suggest you check your local and state codes. There might be some requirements to take into account.
