An anti-acidic bed will only stay anti-acidic for a certain length of time before the surrounding soil "soaks" into it- so the soil is at that point an extension of the piping. The best possible solution would be to wrap the piping to extend the life. Great question!!!
aha. Potential employer " So how long and where did you learn plumbing?". Me " State prison, where I was serving a 10 year sentence for stealing tools." haha, just a joke and reminder, that yes I know a that did time, studied plumbing, got licensed and eventually ended up buying the company he worked for! How cool is that?
I started plumbing in October of '94. I went through an apprenticeship here in San Diego where I turned out as the Apprentice of the Year in '99. Immediately after graduating I was asked to instruct. I began instructing in 2000 and also worked in the field as a lead, foreman, and superintendent on large commercial construction projects.
Thank you,
You are welcome!
me too
Well the good news is we are almost back. But online is far better now than it was when this video happened. Ugh
Why not put an anti-acidic soil blend as the bed for cast-iron pipe to give it a long life?
