In response to Re: Laying Gas Pipes
: I'm laying gas pipes through the back yard to a pool heater. Got everything according specs and ready to roll. I got the trench all dugged up. My question is when you connect pipes together, is it better to do before or after you lay the pipes inside the trench. : Also any other tips are greatly appreciated. If you are useing steel pipe and each joint has to be taped it is better to put as much of the pipe together above ground first, Use coated pipe and tar and tape each joint.
