i am trenching about 400 feet from the house to the pole barn, any suggestions on cost effective pipe and pipe size for that run? my well only runs about 30psi. volume is pretty meh also.
would like to keep it one piece in the ground, going to go about 4 foot deep. in a cold winter it could freeze. ill have a shutoff in my crawlspace and frost free hydrants near the barn. one hydrant will feed water into the pole barn and ill do it to self drain with the hydrant off. a couple others for the future greenhouse and garden area that will be feeding drip irrigation. only good thing is about 6 foot drop in elevation between house and barn.
