Hi All,
Have seen lots of really useful threads on water supply installation.....but can't find the answer to the following, can anyone help please?:
As background- the pipe is running down the side of garage (which sits in front of the house)
1. I need to run other pipes in the trench- including 3 water pipes back to the garage and an oil pipe. i was going to dig the supply pipe at 1200mm and then layer the other supplies over that at appropriate depth. is this ok?
2. The run is about 10m of trenching- can i get away with 2 inspection pits for the trench inspection?
3. The time from installing the new pipe to actually connecting it to the new supply is going to be 12-18m (its the first step in a long list of changes- involving new boilers, new unvented tanks, replacement internal piping etc all of which will take time). Should i get the inspection done as soon as I've laid the pipe, or just before connection to the main? My preference would be the former....
Thanks everyone,
James
