Smaller HDPE gas mains such as 8, 6, and 4" are typically buried about 3 ot 4 feet deep; however proper locating officials MUST be called and notified and locates made accurately BEFORE any digging takes place for other purposes, such as water lines, poles, and fences. Talk to the utility owner that installed the gas line for the exact depth as it is critical to safety.
Different geography demands different depth. Avoiding the frost line is important to avoid movement of the pipeline during freeze and thaw cycles. Pipe movement can pull apart fittings and place stress on elbows and other angles.
