Push fit waste

[wiseowl1]

Hi all,

Just fitting new bathroom and have push fit 32 mil (sink) and 40 mil (bath waste) pipe in the rubble cavity of the cottage stone wall running 6 ft horizontaly

Worried that push fit connector may perish or leak, difficult to remove but I intend to tile the complete room with this behind the tiles, anyone have any good advise please.

If you're worried about it leaking then just deal with it now rather than be sorry further down the line.

replace it with solvent weld if possible! fit and forget!! there is no point taking the easy option of using the existing if you are gonna worry about the long term integrity of the joints.

imo

Agree Solvent weld. will Never leak

you may have to replace the pipe aswell as solvent fittings will probably be too big for the existing pipe

solvemt weld glue wont work on pushfit pipe, so replace the lot.
