hi

can anyone advise what type of pipe to use for the main pipe from the meter (must be
underground thr the garden). some says stainless steel can be corroded by chlorine, GI will rust. can I use copper (and joint fittings) instead of PVC, PE (not suitable for DIY), etc., for underground

my previous plumber used the long black plastic one (in rolls) and it keeps damage by tree
roots !

any advise

thanks

thanks people

maybe just put a short length of SS thr the garden then revert back to other cheaper pipe

but, what about the chlorine problem for SS?
