  1. Ok then . I will do a number 2 later
  2. Basin inlet is on the right of pan, yet my basin must be on the left. It's all a bit too tight for my liking.
  3. Don't like this. It's a tight space so have to jubilee clip short pipes for waste and basin to pan before putting in situ. Assume I have to jubilee the other end before going to weld pipe otherwise if (when!) I need to remove pan I'll be stuffed. Don't like jubilee clips. Don't like visible pipework - but no real choice.
  4. I’ve had jubilee clips on pumps before and over time they’ve come off . I think the movement of the pump ( jolt ) loosens them - though just as much as a weld joint . How about I solvent weld it and put that rubber coupler on ? 😁
  5. UPVC class C Pump spec is: https://www.sumpsandpumpsdirect.co.uk/acatalog/zoeller222.pdf Can't see any obvious mention of pressure etc.
  6. The spigot discharge pipe is 52mm solvent weld i.e no thread etc. This is the spec recommended from the sump pump manufacturer.
  7. Pumped
  8. No you (expletive deleted)ing didn’t ! - that’s why no one replied !
  9. Being good today; answering my own questions as you lot are rubbish 2" solvent weld pipe off the pump discharge. Connection to 110mm soil pipe is done via a 63mm MDPE to 110mm. But this is no good!. Unadvertised though they can supply a 2" solvent weld to 110mm fitting! Those MDPE 2 water pipe I'll Tee together . Then fit a T on the soil pipe. So sewage discharge goes on the end ( it's an end cap fitting ). MDPE goes into the side. PERFECTION!
  10. Decided to call saniflow.... Pipe at base is for a basin input Clear pipes top left are some sort of air admittance type valve i.e. leave alone Top right pipe is an overflow which in theory should never have anything coming out of it but can. Apparently reducing water pressure can reduce this 'drip' There - so we all learnt something today!
  11. Looking at the instructions for this ( you know the type all piccy's no words) Looking at the back of the macerator there are clear pipes top left and a black pipe ( ducting?) top right - can't see any mention of them in the pic's - what are they for? Also this black pipe which they show somehow fitting to the base ; I don't get it. Water in easy, electrics in easy, waste out to the right easy. What's all this other stuff????
  12. Possibly for that 50mm (2" so not 50mm!) to soil pipe? https://www.jtmplumbing.co.uk/pipe-fittings-c433/underground-soil-fittings-c214/jtm-underground-universal-waste-adaptor-p20868
  13. You don’t ( should not ? ) use a boss strap underground??
  14. I did find this for the mdpe https://www.gasandwaterpipelines.co.uk/63mm-fittings/63mm-mdpe-110mm-underground-drainage-adaptor-kit.html?kw=&ci=&network=x&pm=&cid=17567543495&aid=&tid=&dev=m&mt=&lim=&lpm=9045627&pos=&dm=&fid=&mid=109646584&pid=PW650&country=GB&source=google&gclid=CjwKCAjwvsqZBhAlEiwAqAHElRjP-t2O6NwzhZdJj3M5n6PuE9Z0-jTmKV0vPgC0VfZw0W8s0gpzWxoCam0QAvD_BwE this for the 50mm ( or whatever it is sump ) https://www.drainageonline.co.uk/above-ground-drainage/soil-and-waste-systems/110mm-push-fit-soil/110mm-x-50mm-solvent-weld-waste-adaptor As they both are end caps ; presume I must Tee the soil pipe ??
  15. Hi, 1) How do I connect MDPE to the main drain?. I can Tee these 2 together to make one connection. Currently just sat loose . This is for a rainwater pump. I can dig out the main drain pipe for what ever connections are required. 2) I’ve got a sump. Yet this 50mm flowplast connector won’t fit. What should I use ( want solvent weld ) as it’s sewage. Also need to connect to the same main drain as the MDPE pipes above. ta !
  16. That’s what you said about mine
  17. I’d get a person you don’t like and stand them against the glass . Then push them . Plenty of professionals will be out then
  18. All @SteamyTea wants to do is “ give his neighbor “ some ; dirty bast …
  19. Wanting me to do this (expletive deleted)ing job . Not like I’ve got anything else to do . Still , happy wife , happy life as they say …… ( not true of course 🤣 )
  20. The (expletive deleted)er doesn’t move now
  21. (expletive deleted)ing SWMBO
  22. So I decided to do a sand/ cement mix at the base of the depression ( hole in the ground not my mental state ) . Seems fairly stable and level . Will water can around it now . As fear of it moving and poo pipe breaking I’ll even expanding foam the sides for peace of mind .
