The pipe-to-ground is a distribution method for [[Liquid network|liquids and gases]]. Since a basic [[pipe]] is impassable, these are necessary to keep the factory open, as well as to cross belt lines, or environmental features.
Only one fluid can be inside a pipe-to-ground at one time. Trying to mix two fluids can destroy one of the fluids. Read more on [[Liquid network#Mechanics|liquid mechanics]]. These kind of pipes can even be placed between patches of water.

== Notes ==
* The maximum distance at which a pipe to ground can connect is 10 squares, resulting in a gap of 9 squares in between.
* Pipe-to-ground stores less liquid than basic pipes.
* While pipe-to-ground is the developer name for the entity, the community has taken to simply referring to this entity as "underground pipe". This is the most common reference.
== History ==
{{history|0.13.0|
* Underground pipes are now automatically placed at maximum distance when building by dragging.}}

* Icon changes.}}
{{history|0.9.3|
* For two different pipe to ground types, the distance limit is now the minimum of the two connections.}}
{{history|0.9.2|
* Pipe to ground can now reach up to 10 tiles underground.
* A pipe to ground can have multiple underground connections.}}
{{history|0.9.0|
* Pipe to grounds are made in pairs, and are more expensive to craft.}}
{{history|0.2.1|
* Automatic 180 degree rotation of underground pipes when the first pipe is built.}}
