PeterW Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 I’d be using PrimerG or SBR then as PVA will form a skin so the bond will be a PVA sandwich otherwise ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onoff Posted April 30, 2018 Author Share Posted April 30, 2018 On 28/04/2018 at 19:22, Onoff said: Cheers. So I could ditch the branch for a 90deg bend laid on it's side and that would be OK? Why is a branch such a stalling point, does "stuff" get thrown into the unused branch and compacted? Or is it not enough of a sweep? If that's the case a normal 90 is no good either! So for clarification the 112.5 branch in it's side could cause a "log jam"? It's approx 1.5m from the aav stack. Bump. What about x2 135deg bends instead of the 112.5deg branch on it's side? Any better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh the majority of the cutting back has been where the gun foam has expanded widthways rather than out. Still got the best part of a bin bag full. The thickness of finished depth foam/PIR varies from 25mm to 125mm just in this area there's so many thicknesses of old brick, block and render. I ditched the EPS behind the pipes and replaced with PIR too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProDave Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 There was a thread some time back, what to do with small offcuts of PIR insulation. Answer. Post them to @Onoff 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't use the branch to make a 90o turn in the run as it's a stalling point and a big no-no. This? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassanclan Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Personally I would swap the bottom bend and branch, so the branch is vertical, if need be make it a 4 socket rather 3 socket branch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I turned the branch vertical and lifted it up I'd lose that run option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope Youve still got the products of arse combustion hitting the flat back of that branch Needs to be a Y branch with a 45 in it to send things round't bend lad. @bassanclans idea would work and you could use a corner branch to make things easier down the line.

Nickfromwales Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Swept bend if you've got the height. If not a regular 90. Get some joist top foam strip and make a suspension mount for the soil bend to stop noise transmitting through the ceiling joist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassanclan Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 To be honest, is it worth future proofing the soil pipe? I imagine your great grandchildren won't be that fussed, as I assume that's how long it will be before this project is done 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
