Sewer line replacement question.
 

I'm going to have to replace my ancient (61 year old) 4" Orangeburg with
PVC. I'll be burying the new line unbedded decomposed granite, about
three feet deep. Should I use 3034 or Schedule 40 PVC?

TIA

Check with your city, town or municipality or whatever it is called in your
area, they will have specifications that you need to work with. Here on the
internet, we don't even know the country you are in, so how can we help?

You mean "usenet", don't you? This is usenet, not the internet AFAIK.

It's not a code issue. I already know I can replace the pipe with PVC
and there are at least the two grades that I listed. My question was
which type of pipe is preferable for sewer line, not which meet my local
code. I already know that both meet the code.

John,

Glad you made it over here. I read your reply in a.c.f about the tree
being right at the foundation of the house. You're right, the tree
needs to come down.

How long is the run from the house to the sewer line in the street?
