galvanized piping is acceptable but not necessary. all steel piping must be wrapped when entering ground at least 6" (a foot is better) bushings are not allowed unless properly peened so its better to just use bell reducers. and finally be sure to size your pipe according to the BTU requirement of the appliance being serviced

IT IS PART Galvanized don't you knowGalvanized is ZINC coating on black steel and YELLOW BRASS piping is 40% ZINC and 60% Copper and RED BRASS is 85% Copper and 15% Zinc=The problem with TOO much Zinc content is dezincification where the piping becomes brittle and to little zinc and the brass is too soft as the higher copper content.==Mixing Galvanized steel and brass or copper causes a condition of electrolytic action as your mixing ferrous metals and non ferrous metals. ( this is first year apprentice training) to prevent the electrolysis one should use a dielectric fitting=

What are the differences between Galvanized pipe and black steel pipes?
Answer These are different descriptions for a part. Tubular Steel describes the shape. Steel can be ordered in different sizes and shapes and material properties. Tubular Steel is one type of shape and the process for making the tube will cause the properties for that steel to be slightly different. Galvanized Steel describes a type of finish that protects the steel from corrosion. This process alters the surface of the steel that keeps it protected and thus can be used for construction where it is exposed to the elements. I'm sure you can order a steel tube that has a galvanized finish. Many chain-link fences are made from galvanized steel, including the round posts. Custermen
