Ooooooo push fit one end solvent the other That’s what I need ! But a straight one .
-
So ! I could take the geberit fitting into a similar grey fitting you have and solvent weld that end to my black 110 soil?? The geberit you show ; just pushed into the grey ?? Must have rubber ring or something surely?
-
@Onoff what did you do here ? You seem to connect into the brown 110 soil - that grey pipe not a push fit onto it is it ??
-
You are right ! Doesn’t solve my problem does it - as I still need to get to solvent weld
-
Hmmmm Hunting - I find this @Nickfromwales suggests the 90/110 reducer ( surely that’s an enlarger ) push fits straight into the 110 soil . Still means I’d have a push fit in my vertical rather than a weld ....
-
Actually do I HAVE to use any of the Geberit supplied pipework?? - can I not just get weldable in the same size? ( assuming geberit is a 'standard' size )? Or is that initial 90 degree tee a Geberit special fitting.....
-
Hmmm, sounds like a problem for another day. I'll email Geberit - they do seem to do weld stuff - so hopefully they have a magic coupler that takes push fit to weld. I'll report back with what they say ; assuming they reply....
-
Yeah I did think that also i.e. downhill away from the push joint, but you know. When I post 5 years from now about this brown stain on my ceiling......?
-
So in my ceiling I’ll have push fit ? ? I really want solvent weld all the way I.e after the pan 90 tee . If I get one of those geberit extenders you linked to I’ll still need push fit at the end which is bad
-
Rains beaten me ! Went for it and removed the crack - just the final connection to go ! Thanks for all the help !
-
Need to look that up . but !!! I managed to force weld fit straight into the access chamber ! By pure luck of course ! So ! Coupler on internal soil to a length of weld pipe ‘push fitted’ into chamber !
-
Hmmmm - called around a few plumbing online retailers - doesn’t apparently seem possible !! . Problem seems to be the rubber flange on the push fit stops the weld fit going in ( even the weld fit end with no flange )
-
Ah bum ! @Jeremy Harris you are of course correct ! . Will do it properly with a coupler . Better now than problem later !
-
Weld coupler fits over push fit pipe fine . But I can’t weld these 2 guys together can I ???? Push fit coupler doesn’t go over weld pipe . Both have a rubber flange which seems to stop them pairing up ...
-
That’s going to be a right PITA to dig out ; so I can lift the pipe high enough so I can get a coupler over it !
-
Almost there ! So the internal black pipe is weld stuff . Man hole connection is push fit - how do I marry these 2 up ? Also during my excavation I inadvertently stuck the pick axe through the pipe ? A cut section of curved pipe would act as a nice plaster over the hole . Assume this stuff isn’t weld friendly so CT1 it in place ??
-
Hmmm I wonder if there’s a nice cat5 or wifi version ... starts googling ... ?
-
So a cable straight through the wall is ok ? I think it looks neater than a plate in the bathroom
-
Yep - I’ve googled the correct thing now ! Thanks @Jeremy Harris ; I am now looking at the right thing ! ??
-
Ahhhhh ! Are all non switched FCU’s like that ?
-
-
But a FCU has a switch ; assume that’s not allowed in a bathroom ??? - or have I got it wrong ?
-
When I look at these in a show room admittedly not wired in to use - but the wiring seems to go straight into the wall . My electrician has asked for a flex outlet plate . Is this the standard way to have these wired ? . Would be nice to have no visible cable if possible....
-
Will do a mock up to test alignment!

Wall hung vanity . In theory the vanity unit hides the waste .
