SuperPav Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 So I've got a twintec water softener, bought it in great anticipation of finally not having to deal with hard water issues. Planned a place for it in the utility cupboard. Happy days. Completely missed the fact that it needs a waste/overflow/discharge! (DOH). Our water main comes into the utility cupboard downstairs, where the UVC, and all the manifolds for the whole house will be. It is in the centre of the ground floor, with no waste. The only "waste" pipe is a 28mm D2 copper pipe running along a wall to the outside to a gravel trap, put in place for the UVC. Is there any way I can utilise this 28mm pipe for the overflow and discharge of the twintec, while also using it downstream of the tundish/D2 for the UVC?

markocosic Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Can softener discharge be elevated? (Run at ceiling level) It is pressurised, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
