FAQs

What type of pipe does this branch connect to?

This is a 110mm fitting, designed to connect with standard 110mm PVC soil and waste pipes.

Can this be used for above-ground or below-ground drainage?

The Polypipe Soil Systems range is suitable for both above-ground and below-ground applications, provided it is installed according to relevant building regulations and best practices.

How many pipes can connect to this branch?

This is a 4-boss branch, meaning it has four connection points where other pipes can be joined to it.

What is the material of this fitting?

The fitting is manufactured from durable PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride).

Is this fitting compatible with other brands of soil pipe?

While designed for the Polypipe Soil Systems range, it is generally compatible with other 110mm PVC soil pipe systems, but always check for specific dimensional compatibility to ensure a secure fit.

Does this fitting require specific glue?

Yes, it requires a solvent cement specifically designed for PVC pipes and fittings. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for application and curing.

Troubleshooting

Leak at connection point

Ensure pipe is fully inserted and solvent cement was applied correctly to both surfaces. Re-apply solvent cement and re-join if necessary, ensuring proper curing time.

Blockage in the branch

Inspect the connected pipes for obstructions. Use appropriate drain clearing tools to remove any blockages. Ensure the system is adequately ventilated.

Difficulty fitting pipe

Verify that both the pipe and the fitting are clean and the correct 110mm diameter. Ensure no obstructions are present inside the socket. Use a lubricant if necessary (check compatibility with solvent cement).

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  3. Insert the pipe into the socket with a slight twisting motion until it reaches the base.
  4. Hold in place for a few seconds to allow the solvent cement to bond.
  5. Allow the joint to cure according to the solvent cement manufacturer's instructions before introducing water flow.

Compatibility:
