Just read in a DIY manual that an outside tap should be installed "at
least 250mm above DPC level".

Why? What would be the dire consequences of installing below DPC...
apart from not getting a bucket under it if the DPC were six inches
above ground level?

On a sloping site with the DPC well above ground level, the tap could
be quite high up the wall if you position above DPC.


Which manual? Does it explain the rationale? Makes little sense to me!
