preparatory stage

Before starting the assembly and laying of sewer pipes need to perform layout of future sewer system in advance to get the necessary amount of both the pipes and connecting elements.It should be taken into account and fasteners and fittings.After the delivery of all parts of the sewage system to the installation site is prepared smooth and clean surface for storage.Pipes can be placed on each other to a height of no more than 2m.For storage of plastic products need to limit the influence of sunlight, no matter the time of year.

Preparatory stage.

Next pipe should be cut into sections of a certain length, using a special cutting tool, which simultaneously cuts and chamfer with an end surface of the pipe.If such a device is not available, you can cut the pipe with a hacksaw and then manually removing the corners end of the pipe with a fine file or rasp angle of 150ยบ.If the product has already been shaped profile, it should not be cut.

After verifying the presence of the sealing ring in the socket connection can begin construction and installation of sewer pipe.

Laying sewer pipes

To properly lay a sewer pipe with their hands on the mating surface of the silicone grease is applied.This is done in order to:

  • reduce friction that may occur between the sealing member and pipe when sewage flows through the liquid at different temperatures;
  • increase the long-term operation of connecting elements;
  • reduce the stress produced in the middle of the structure;
  • silicone provides quick connection of all elements of the system.

Laying of sewer pipes

surface inside the socket of the pipe is not subjected to lubrication.

Before you begin to assemble the entire system from the pit toilet to scrutinize the scheme laying sewer pipes.To conduct fixing to horizontal and vertical surfaces use special clamps, which fix the pipes under the couplings.Fasteners should be used two types:

  • provide rigid mounting sewer.These products have a rubber lining for a secure fit;
  • clamps without rubber seal provide a certain freedom in the movement of the tube in a horizontal direction.

Laying of sewer pipes

This locking system provides reliable and correct laying of sewage without the possibility of creating internal tensions within the pipe.

compound polyethylene pipe with cast iron

in old houses used cast iron pipe for sewer systems.The owners, who decided to change the old to the new plastic, are often faced with the problem of connecting two different materials.To do this, perform the following steps:

  • bell plastic pipe with cast iron end is connected by a special transition tube;
  • iron on the end of the tube wear a double O-ring;
  • smooth finish plastic pipe and cast-iron bell is connected via a double connecting pads;
  • at the junction impose special clutch and perform its fixation on pipes.

As can be seen from the rules described above is correct laying of sewer pipes with his hands a simple and feasible process.
