With easy-use isolation inside, drain off at end (not that they'd used it), customer told to make sure they shut off and drain if weather getting cold, lagged and bagged etc...

Just wondering whether there is a reg for max lenght and/or what you'd personally consider too long?

Thanks
 
No regs I’ve seen them all the way round the houses
 
Personally I’d keep it as short as practicable, or better still use the ones with copper attached. Bearing in mind undue warming (From the sun), and prevention from freezing.
 
Cheers all.

That reminds me I've been meaning to take a picture of my entry for the Longest 32mm Waste Run In The UK which is on a building on the end of my road. Must be ten meters.

Hope there's an anti vac trap on the other end
