I ran 1" PVC about a 1/4 mile buried in 1976. Still in service today
with no leaks. Same for all my sprinkler lines. Only leak I have
had was one fitting where I made the misstake of using a female
PVC/male Iron fitting. NEVER do that! Always use a malepvc/female
iron. Much fun as it broke in the middle of winter and I had to shut
off the the entire line until spring so I could dig it up.

Where do you live that you're irrigating in winter... and if you live
in a warm clime where one irrigates all year WTF mention winter, and
if it's warm enough to irrigate WTF would you need to wait until
spring to dig... are you fibbing? From reading your posts you're just
making it ALL up... "iron" irrigation fittings your ass.

Iron - maybe "galvanized iron" pipe would help you understand.

You really are full of it aren't you. The more you talk, the better we can
see that you know nothing. There are plenty of possible reasons to need
water during the winter.

Yep. I'm in mid winter now in the sthn hemisphere and since it's been the
driest June for decades, I've currently got my low pressure sprinkers
running on my asparagus bed.
