FAQs

What type of solvent weld cement should I use?

Use solvent weld cement SC250, specifically designed for PVC-U applications.

Can I use this adaptor with other brands of pipe?

While the FloPlast Boss Adaptor is designed to be compatible with a wide range of pipes, ensure that the pipes are made of PVC-U and are the correct size for a secure fit.

How long does the solvent weld cement take to dry?

The drying time varies depending on the brand and environmental conditions. Refer to the solvent weld cement manufacturer's instructions for the specific drying time.

What if I make a mistake during installation?

Since the solvent weld joint is permanent, you'll need to cut out the fitting and start again if you make a mistake. Plan your installation carefully.

Can I use this adaptor for hot water discharge?

Yes, the FloPlast Boss Adaptor is designed for high-temperature applications.

How do I ensure a good seal?

Make sure that both surfaces are clean, apply an even layer of solvent weld, and ensure the pipe is fully inserted into the adaptor. Allow the joint to set for the recommended time.

Where can I find an instructional video?

FloPlast provides short instructional videos detailing how to use various boss fittings. Check their official website or other online platforms.

Troubleshooting

Leakage at the joint.

Ensure the joint is properly sealed with solvent weld cement. Check for cracks in the pipe or adaptor. If necessary, replace the faulty parts and re-weld.

Difficulty in inserting the waste pipe.

Ensure the pipe and adaptor are clean and free of debris. Use a small amount of solvent weld cement as a lubricant to ease insertion.

Joint is not watertight.

Ensure you've used the correct amount of solvent weld. Allow the cement to fully cure before testing the connection.
