Plastic pipe stored outside during winter

[5oysterman2]

Had some 15mm & 22mm plastic pipe left behind the shed over the winter. Is there any reason it shouldn't be good to use.

Would it be brittle now? Obviously don't want to use it if there is a risk of bursting. Cheers

Depends on what type of pipe it is.

If its ABS then it should be fine, if it's push fit then they are less UV stable. Even then though it take a few years to degrade so one winter outside shouldn't be an issue.
