Hi,
What's so special about 110mm soil pipe in black or grey compared to the orange underground version? Am I right to think the underground version is sensitive to UV so will eventually go brittle in sunlight? Is the only difference that they add something to stop this and a colour to the "above ground" version?
It seems that the above ground costs twice the price of the underground pipe (£20 vs. £9) and I can't understand why. I only wanted a small section to make a pre-filter for my water butt! I am tempted to use the u/g pipe. How quickly would it deteriorate in the sun? Would a layer of paint help protect it?
TIA
