Hello
Can anyone please help to lift the fog surrounding domestic waste pipe and fittings please, in particular domestic waste pipe 32mm and 40mm. As i understand waste pipe work is measured on the internal diameter as opposed to the OD for copper. When i go to the merchants to buy pipe i ask for standard lengths of 32mm or 40mm respectively and they just sell this too you but i have found that different pipe manufacturers have different OD therefore not all solvent weld, compression or push fit plastic joints interwork on all pipework.
I was reading a thread on one forum where they were discussing there being 2 x different types of waste pipe, one for solvent welds the other for compression but i thought it was just the one type of pipe for either ?
Sorry in advance if i am being slow but is there a general rule of thumb/guideance when it comes to using ABS wastepipe products.
