FAQs

What kind of glue should I use?

You must use PVC-U specific glue. Ensure the glue is suitable for the pressure rating of your system.

How long should I wait for the glue to dry?

Follow the glue manufacturer's instructions. Drying times can vary based on the brand and environmental conditions, but in general, allow several hours for curing.

Can I use this elbow with other pipe sizes?

No, this elbow is specifically designed for use with 90 mm pipes only.

How do I know if the connection is watertight?

After the glue has fully cured, carefully test the system by filling the pipes with water and checking for any leaks. Inspect the connections thoroughly.

What is the pressure rating of this elbow?

The elbow is rated to 16 bar.

Is this elbow UV resistant?

The elbow itself is not specifically UV resistant. If the elbow is exposed to sunlight, it's recommended to use UV-resistant pipes and fittings to extend the product's lifespan.

Troubleshooting

Leakage at the connection point.

Ensure the pipe is fully inserted into the elbow, use the correct PVC-U glue, and allow sufficient curing time. If the problem persists, re-glue the connection.

Difficulty inserting the pipe.

Make sure the pipe and fitting are clean and free of debris. Use a lubricant specifically designed for PVC-U if needed, but be aware that it might affect the glue's bond. Ensure the pipe is properly aligned.
