Water connections to the existing network

What is a collar for tie-in plumbing and how to use

Before starting work on the additional connection, be sure to coordinate their actions with Gorvodokanal.If it is private land, where there is no drainage, the sidebar can not resolve.In other cases, permission to carry out such works to receive a snap.

preparatory stage is the equipment of individual water wells or make the connection in the near.In the second case, the tie-in the well pipe will cost a bit cheaper.

Water connections to the existing network

If several ways tapping pipe into a well:

  • using connection fittings of the central water supply system;
  • using a welding machine, but in the absence of water pressure in the pipes;
  • saddle for tie-in plumbing (clamp) is applied in the case where the installation is performed without disconnecting the water supply;Standard
  • clamp structure consists of two metal strips with fastening elements at the ends.There are also other species such as a metal seal and rubber casing, which replaces the rubber pad.
  • flange clamp to tie fixed on the pipe flange connection, so is not equipped with a valve and pipe.

Any of these clamps can be used for pipes of different materials: iron, steel and asbestos cement.But tapping into polyethylene trubuluchshe use special tools.

tapping of the pipe under pressure

There are times when you can not block the water for installation.Make it would be much more difficult, but possible.It is important to follow all safety rules and adhere to a strict phasing action.

clutch Eviction for tie-in plumbing is as follows:

  1. First of all, remove the insulation and clean up the place, which is used for tapping.The diameter of the central tube should be much larger than the diameter of the pipe outlet.
  2. on existing pipe clamp secured to the pipe and the flange, which is attached to the locking device.This gate valve is mounted pipe drilling.
  3. Then through the open valve and the caul blind flange is inserted into the cutter, the size of which is identical to the size of the necessary openings.Frese is removed immediately after drilling;
  4. Thereafter, the locking structure is closed and removed.

The process of tie should occur very quickly.The locking device is used just for water retention and prevents pouring it out.

cost collars

Prices clamps are different and largely depend on the material used, dimensions, technical features, and the company - the manufacturer.Products imported goods, as a rule, much more expensive, although the quality can thus yield to products of domestic factories.Consider also that the installation of some clamps involves the use of additional devices for pressure tapping, and that accordingly the additional costs.

Therefore, when buying necessarily consult with the seller in hardware store or on the market.
