Which 110 pipes can be used indoors?
This might be good to clarify if red/orange pipes can be used indoors. We are also skipping discussions about white, blue, and other special colors that exist. We are trying to stick to 110 pipes since red/orange is not available in smaller sizes in the standard range. I have searched for a while now and cannot find red/orange pipes approved for embedding and indoor use.
The interesting thing is which standards they follow, not what color they are. But indoor should have the lowest requirements, so all should work.
Ok, do you have information on casting and the hot water resistance?D Daniel 109 said:
I'm looking for facts that say they can be used and not just opinions?
According to this guide, red/orange pipes are not approved for indoor use, or am I reading it wrong? According to it, indoor pipes need to be classified with B or BD for embedding..

Gray PP pipe for indoor drainage with socket.
All indoor drainage pipes are approved according to Nordic Poly Mark.
Sizes 110 and 75 are marked with BD, which means they are approved for embedding.

No marking with B or BD so these are not intended for indoor drainage.

Ground pipes are (generally at least) not B and D-labeled, it's a labeling that belongs to the standard for HT pipes.Rejäl said:
Despite this, it may say in the product description that, for example, the pipe is approved for embedding.
Yes, and since they're called ground pipes, it says a lot...C cpalm said:
Do you understand that indoor drains require B or BD for embedding to be approved for indoor installation or how do you interpret it?
Best answer
I interpret it the same way - all HT pipes are practically B-marked, but if you are going to lay them in the ground and/or embed them, they should also be marked for usage area D, i.e., BD-marked.Rejäl said:
What I mean is that this marking is unique to HT pipes. No point in looking for it on ground drainage pipes or any other pipes, even if they may be approved for embedding.
Agreed!C cpalm said:
But I think it's simply because they are called ground pipes and lack that marking, they are simply not intended or approved for indoor use. Ground pipes SN8 are much more pressure-resistant as they are approved to be placed under roads. In my nearly 30 years on construction sites, I've never seen red pipes indoors or heard of it, except for a few here at BH who interpret a certain text to mean that red pipes are intended for indoor use.C cpalm said:
