Default Underground gas pipe

...
Is there a "best" way to install underground gas pipe? Is black pipe
preferred to galvanized or vice versa? Should fittings and possibly pipe
be covered with some coating like an epoxy paint or silicone caulk or some
other coating? Any other hints?

Thanks very much.


They make an underground iron pipe for gas Some of it looks like it's
wrapped with ten-Mil tape there is deferent types Check with a plumbing
supply.( not a big box store) But the best would be plastic gas pipe It
comes in rolls and is fused together there are transition pieces for when
you go out of the ground, I haven't done any underground gas pipe in long
time so I can't remember the names.
