Underground or Overground (nothing to do with wombles!)

D4G:

Chris Pearson:

What do you regard as the minimum height? If it is simply a walkway, about six-and-a-half feet will do, less if like in our house, you are all vertically challenged.


At home, there used to be a galvanised conduit between the house and the outbuildings. It was attached to a wooden beam, all reasonably secure. The only thing was that it tended to be a bit of a nuisance if one needed to pass under with a ladder or some such. ?

? I'm the opposite, will brush my head every time I walk under it if fixed at 6'6"!


Underground will be a better option.

Three years or so ago, we had the concrete at the back of the house renewed, partly because the drains were defective. I cannot explain why I didn't have a duct put in beneath it. It would only have been a few inches, but perfectly compliant. Damn and blast! ?
