  • Downspouts and Gutter systems

Can you use PEX for a drain

As with PVC, PEX is rust-proof, infinitely durable and marked with identifiers along the exteriors of pipes.

PEX’s purpose, however, is the opposite of PVCwhereas the latter is restricted to drain lines, the former is only used for incoming water lines.

What is indirect pumping

An indirect feed system works in a similar way to a direct feed system, however instead of pumping rainwater directly to the appliance, the submersible pump inside the tank pumps rainwater to a header tank in the roof space of the property.

Should I use Teflon tape on water heater supply lines

Use Teflon tape (but not pipe dope) on the male threads entering the flex-connectors.

If your water heater has female-threaded tappings, you’ll need a pair of 3/4″ nipples to accept the flex-connectors at the bottom.

If the heater comes with 3/4″ male-threaded stubs, the nipples are not needed.

What is the difference between direct and indirect water cylinders

A ‘direct’ cylinder is heated via an electric immersion and does not work with gas, oil or heat pump systems.

An ‘indirect’ cylinder has coil running through the cylinder. ‘Primary’ heating water (not fresh water) passes through the coil and is heated by the boiler to around 70 degrees C.

How long does it take to get air out of water lines

Leave the water running for about two minutes. Start from the lowest faucet in the house to the highest faucet.

This allows the water pressure of the system to force all of the air from the pipes and out through the faucets.

Once the water is running from all outlets normally, turn them off.

What is below ground drainage

Underground drainage is the general term given to the system of pipes and fittings that is installed below ground level to transport foul drainage or rainwater flows to a sewage treatment facility or, in the case of rainwater, a soakaway or water course.

What is the minimum fall on a drain

You probably know that drains need to flow downhill into your sewer. But do you know the proper slope?

The ideal slope of any drain line is ¼ inch per foot of pipe.

In other words, for every foot the pipe travels horizontally, it should be dropping ¼ inch vertically.

How deep should drainage pipe be buried

Maintaining a depth of 12 to 18 inches is best for drain pipes, but the depth of the pipe may vary in order to maintain a downward slope, which is critical for proper drain functioning.

Where is PEX not allowed

You can’t install PEX in high heat areas like near recessed lighting. This also means you can’t connect PEX directly to a hot water heater, but you can use a connecting material to do this.

PEX is semi-permeable, which means liquid can enter the pipe.

What is exclamatory sentence and example

Exclamatory sentences normally end with an exclamation mark, which is a specific punctuation mark to give emphasis on a feeling or emotion.

For example: That is extremely rude!
