The products covered by this Standard have been evaluated for assembly in normal soil applications by qualified persons in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

The products covered by this Standard have not been evaluated for applications in sumps [more than 305 mm (12 in) inside a sump wall], as connector pipe (between underground pipe and dispensing device), aboveground or marine use, or other applications exceeding normal temperatures.
