Drain pipe material in crawl space (Florida)

[joer33304]

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.

All drain lines in Florida are PVC. It's cheap. The wording is off but I assuming you're getting a manufactured home? Who will be pulling the permits?

The last time Florida had freezing temperatures was two months after I moved to West Palm Beach Florida in Oct 1989. Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, it did get to 27 degrees overnight. Even JAX had a tad of snow and ice on the bridges. The ground never freezes all along the entire Gulf Coast

IF I were going to use the green pipe, and I seldom did, it would be AFTER the piping left the building, not inside/underneath it.
