hi all just a few questions.
i fitted a new man hole and have excess fittings for the external piping but ran out of UG fittings is it ok to fit non UG fittings under the soil such as two 45's i don't have a long radius bend and all fittings i have left are for outside piping ?

thanks for reading

That will be fine as long as the two types of pipe work will connect together OK, above ground pipe work is designed to cope with UV light where as UG pipe work is not, its an expensive way of doing it but if its a fix to get the job done go for it.
