I'm wondering what the consensus is amongst the group here on a couple issues 
as I look towards making some updates to our project specifications.

#1,  the use of 1" grooved pipe and fittings versus threaded.  This would be 
using Sch. 40 pipe.  I saw a presentation which if I were still a contractor 
would definitely make me take a good hard look at utilizing this technology.  
Do you use this or are contemplating using it?

#2, the use of grooved pipe and fitting on pipe below 2" in diameter.  Seems 
like the typical spec lists grooved for pipe above 2" but threaded below 2".  
Why?  Why not grooved pipe below 2"?

I would appreciate some thoughts and incite from those in the field.

Thanks,
