and if buried, Sch. 80 for longevity. Yes, I would neutralize the stuff regardless. No telling what it will see for material downstream. Search for the recent/ongoing thread on neutralization.

Gravity is fine if you have height. It works.

    What ya using?

    Heat Co wants to pump up and drill a hole thru top of foundation to outside

    My choice would be to run about 15 feet from ModCon to drywell, below grade cellar floor... What type of piping needed? [PVC? PEX? or ??] and should it be neutralized?given it would be a dedicated hole, non sump... I assume you don't use a pump if conds line is gravity positioned?

    The experts on this site seem to be lightyears ahead of most of industry professionals in my area, This site is such a valuable asset to the industry... Kudo's to all who contibute.. Thanks

    Thanks

    I can pre run the condy line for them and add a M-chip filter in the dry well, but they say they don't usually neutralize, when pumping out

    and since I have a wifey and flowers, I guess it's best to avoid all types of confrontations
