How to install PVC sewer pipes

Several cubes of aggressive fluid flow through the sewer tubes daily. There is nothing surprising in the fact that over time the pipes come into disrepair and they need to be changed. New pipe sewer PVC is a good solution for both a standard apartment and home.

Light weight, low price and simplicity of installation - they say in favor of sewer pipes from plastic for an apartment or at home. A large selection of fittings and component elements allows you to spend the sewer track of the configuration of any complexity. Warranty service life of sewer plastic pipes about 50 years.

Advantages of plastic sewer pipes

Installation and assembly of sewage from PVC pipes, forces to produce independently any owner. Little weight, allows you to hold the track and fasten the pipes on plasterboard walls or sophisticated.

1. PVC pipes are easily disassembled for cleaning and also easily collected. There are plenty of all sorts of knees, tees and auditing inserts with different degrees of bend. The smooth inner surface of the pipe has a high bandwidth and is not exposed to overgrowth.
2. PVC pipes are dielectric, they are not terrible wandering currents, destructively acting on metal. They do not suffer from corrosion, resistant to acids and chemically aggressive medium. Low value in combination with operational durability explains the high popularity of PVC sewer pipes.

Dismantling pig-iron and installation of plastic sewage

Dismantle cast iron pipes and install new plastic, you can even alone. Turbine, sledgehammer and chisel with hammer - the entire set required to replace sewage pipes.

1. To dismantle the cast iron pipes of the sewer pipeline can be turbine, with a disk for metal or welding. In the areas of docking, vertical cast iron pipes are made of deep cuts of the turbine. Then, the pipe is broken by a sledgehammer. The remnants of the connection are tightly stuck in the docking socket, removed with a hammer and chisel.
2. An adapter on the plastic pipe is inserted into the docking pig-iron bowl. It consists of rubber cuffs and a plastic pipe. Next, lay the pipeline according to the plan. The main pipe has a diameter of 100 mm, and for kitchen sink, shells and baths are quite enough pipe 50 mm.
3. Pay attention to the flashes when laying the track. If you take the output of the central sewer tube for zero degrees, the starting point should be touched by about 30 °. On the highway should not be provisions in which water can be searched. The bends and turns are 90 ° are valid, but it is desirable to cut them to a minimum.
4. Vertical cascade transitions do not significantly affect the passability of the sewer system, but the optimal version for the route is a straight line. In key places arrange revision inserts for cleaning the sewer pipe. These are such nozzles with the release and screwing lid. In the case of a blockage, you can easily reach the mud tube with vibration or elastic steel wire and pierced it.
5. When assembling the sewer pipeline, the ends of the pipes can be lubricated with machine oil, technical vaseline or solidol. So the pipes are much easier to collect. Some masters use waterproof silicone. It not only eliminates excess friction when assembling, but also gives additional sealing of joints.

Connect plumbing to the central plastic pipe

In places connected household plumbing during installation, tees are put. If the main pipe or riser has 100 mm in diameter, then a tee 100x100x32 or 100x100x40 mm is installed for the bidet and kitchen sink. For a washbasin and bathroom, a standard release is 50 mm, and for a toilet bowl - 100 mm.

1. Often for plumbing used corrugated exhaust pipes. This is not only convenient when installing in hard-to-reach places, but also quite convenient for prophylactic cleaning during operation.
2. Compounds of graduation pipes of plumbing with a sewer system are performed using sealing rubber. In the case of a poor quality connection and the occurrence of leakage, it can be eliminated by a water-resistant sealant. When installing and installing the toilet, the release is additionally cemented.

Installation of plastic sewage in the house

The laying of sewage pipes in the house will require additional works on the chicken trench to the sewer or septic tanks.

1. In a new house, the main sewer tube can be "drown" to the floor. For release, during the foundation laying, a metal sleeve is made at a depth of at least 75 cm. From the foundation, a trench with a smooth deepening toward the drain is rotated. A bias, approximately 30 °, will be quite sufficient.
2. Laid outdoor sewer pipes in the trench, additionally insulate. With normal operation, water in the pipes is not delayed, but in the case of a blockage, freezing may occur in winter. PVC sewer pipes can not be built out open fire. Only boiling water or abdication, industrial hairdryer.
3. For insulation of plastic sewer pipes, polystyrene foam, mineral wool or any other incorrect rotting in the soil of the insulation material are used. There are special flexible tension insulating polyurethane based hoses. A insulating sleeve is put on the pipes, then an assembly and laying of sewage pipes in the trench are made.
4. In the sewer, in the masonry wall, a hole is made in which a metal sleeve is inserted, the diameter of which slightly exceeds the diameter of the sewer pipe. The site is thoroughly strengthened by stone and brick, and then cemented. A sewer pipe PVC is inserted into the sleeve, it must be 25-30 cm.
