What Type Of Pipe.

JasontheMason

I am going to run a cold line out side to a tree house that my sister's kids made. It is preety good, its 10' or so off the ground, its just a small sink so they can get drinks and stuff. And then some 3'' drain pipe for the drain, and they told me I had to put a trap in so they didnt smell the sewer lol

But my question is what type of line? I was thinking PVC, or PEX or copper, or galv. Any help would be good.


And the its a stright run of 41' then 90*up for about 11'

THanks

You can run pvc ,I would run 3/4" up to where it 90's up then use 1/2" the rest of the way, make sure you flush the line out real good to get rid of the taste in te line from the glue, but no matter which kinda pipe you run flush it out good , but copper would be the best thing to run.

May as well give them a hose bib for the slip and slide, or if your in a cold (frozen) climate they can make a ice rink

Are you going to drain the sink to a pit or do you have other plans?
