Florida building code shows the allowed pipe materials for outside, underground and in building. I do a new container house and it has a crawlspace (higher then the requirements). Can I use the "building" pipes (green ASTM D 3034) which are cheaper and change to the underground just before it leaves the building ?
Second question, general section of the code says :
Water, soil and waste pipes shall not be installed outside of a building, in attics or crawl spaces, concealed in outside walls, or in any other place subjected to freezing temperatures unless adequate provision is made to protect such pipes from freezing by insulation or heat or both.
Is that an issue in Tampa/Florida ? I did not see anybody insulate but looking at the freeze line map it looks that 0 starts right south of Tampa.
