Recommend pipe for burial

[jeffrey]

Our line from our spring to our house has burst. It is a 250 foot run. It was done in the eighties with cheap black 1 inch line. I have the new trench dug. What is the longest lasting solution for a new line (except copper)?

HDPE, Pex or pvc.

I’d use pex or HDPE in your location.

Thanks. Which Pex? Should I sleeve it also?

I use Rehau brand pex. I’d get a 250’ roll if available. Sleeve if you want but that doubles the pipe you’d need and you’d have to upsize the sleeve.
