Troubleshooting

Leakage at the joint

Ensure solvent cement was applied correctly and allowed to cure fully. Check for any gaps or imperfections in the joint. If necessary, cut and re-do the connection, following the correct solvent welding procedure.

Difficulty fitting the pipe

Make sure the pipe and fitting are clean and free of obstructions. Ensure correct pipe size (50mm). Lightly chamfer the end of the pipe to ease insertion. If necessary, use a pipe reamer.
