Mattg4321 Posted March 3 Posted March 3 Following on from the other topic I just posted, it would really help if I could connect to an access chamber (300mm) the same as in the picture (note it's not this one!) There are no spare inlets, can I create one in the riser somehow? Note that this is surface water, not foul. It would be a connection from an aco drain.
Mr Punter Posted March 3 Posted March 3 If this is just surface water you can pretty much do as you please. 1

If there’s no spares then you’ve zero other choice? Y branch cut in to existing run, a single socket 135° bend into that, and take the branch off to pick up the ACO. Standard practice tbf, and even if you did this with a foul connection it would still work perfectly well.
Mattg4321 Posted March 6 Author Posted March 6 That's what I had to do. Had to break out a load of concrete to get access though, which is why I was looking for a short cut. Decided to do it properly though 1
Alan Ambrose Posted March 7 Posted March 7 Fyi discovered these recently, they work surprisingly well into twinwall: https://www.easymerchant.co.uk/underground-drainage/twinwall-drainage-pipe/pipe-fittings/110mm-twinwall-pipe-saddle-adaptor/ 1
Oz07 Posted March 8 Posted March 8 What about the internal connectors which get you into a cut off flush pipe or from pvc to clay.
