I just had a pool built with an autofill and builder left it up to me to find a plumber to hook it up to potable water supply. Unfortunately, called 4-5 area plumbers and no one wants the job, despite explaining it’s just a waterline to a hose bib with a backflow preventer/pressure vacuum breaker and I could trench the hole for them or have pool builder do it. I called larger pool companies and none want the job and didn’t want to pass on their pool plumber contacts.

My question is: Can I DIY this? Concept looks simple enough and if it leaks, it’s outside the house, so damage would be minimal. My only concern is staying in code and using the correct materials. I have utility lines marked and I would need to cross over or under gas line to my house. Not sure rules on that. Pics attached. I need to run line from capped pvc pipe to the hose bib, on other side of gas meter.
My goal is to get this done, repair irrigation system, and then add bermuda sod. Located in North Arkansas with plan to close in November.
Thank you for any advice you can provide.
