[QUOTE="teslacoils, post: 6728053, member: 127792"] 62mm pipe roughly three times the cost of 32mm. Welded joints. Diggers. Several inspection chambers are quite dear. As are fittings, taps, double check valves. Connection itself wasn't overly dear, but we are bringing the pipe to about 2m from their existing hydrant. Borehole could be cheaper, but say 300m of fancy three phase cable, conduit, digging up part of yard, collecting tank etc are all expensive extras. My view was if I was digging the trench etc I may as well put in a fat pipe, and it's big enough for a fire hydrant if I want a nice green field set of stock housing. [/QUOTE]
