I need to run gas down to the garage which is about 20 odd metres away from the house at the bottom of the garden.
i've discussed this on the group before and received a lot of help.
after a lot of consideration and soul-searching i've dug a trench about 18 inches deep all the way down (i need to run water, etc - NOT ELECTRICITY in this trench, that's separate).
my main question at this point is, can i run yellow plastic mdpe down the trench - this seems common sense, but there seems to be a slight grey area in the regulations dictating that all pipework after the meter needs to be copper (sometimes shielded by yellow plastic coating) - this mainly comes from google groups search.
also, i only want to run a simple combi boiler (don't know what type yet, but unlikey to be beyond 100,000 btu) so will i get away with
32mm mdpe?thanks in advance for all help.
