Hi All -
Apologies if this has been addressed elsewhere here. I scanned the forums and did a bunch of searches, but couldn't find anything. (On the other hand, it's a pretty basic question so....)
I am replacing about 75' of exposed waste line that runs through my semi-subterranean garage. The existing line is galvanized, and I just had a plumber tell me "well you can replace it with plastic if you want to, but code requires cast iron...and that's the right way to do it".
Any thoughts? I'm not opposed to cast iron per se...and I definitely want to do it the right way... but I am opposed to spending extra money if I don't have to.
Thanks in advance!
