Sewer lines for residential houses are composed of polyvinyl chloride, or PVC, or acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, ABS, durable plastic. When local regulations endorce, cast iron is used because it prevents the the vexing sound of water/waste trickling through the pipe. Although are very {hardy|durable|tough, these pipes can break if accidentally knocked and a new connecting section must then be installed. The equipment required is determined by the material of pipe being fixed. Tape Measure And Marker A measuring tape is useful to measure the pipe 6 inches on each side of remote controlled flying shark the damaged drainage pipe. A black felt tip marker is appropriate to mark the white/gray PVC pipe angry bird at each 6-inch point. On the other hand, a carpenter's pencil serves best to mark both ABS and cast-iron pipe because it stands out against its darker color. Saws A circular saw or hand saw can make a straight, clean cut though both PVC and ABS pipe. A snap cutter cuts niftly through cast iron pipe. The cutter has a chain connected to the end of one handle, which wraps around the pipe being sliced. The most adjacent chain link attaches to a hook fixed to the end of one air swimmer of the cutter's handles, when the handles pull together the snap cutter cuts directly through the pipe. New Pipe A new sewer pipe section of the same type and width must be cut to size to stand in for the broken section of piping being replaced. If approved by municipality building regulations, PVC can take the place of the broken cast-iron section. Couplings PVC and ABS sleeves join the new pipe segment to the existing segment. The couplings come in various angles and must be the identical width as the drain pipe Whereas primer and PVC cement are both used to join PVC pipe to couplings, ABS cement is needed for ABS couplings. Flexible rubber couplings connect sections of cast iron pipe together, with a screwdriver or ratchet used to tighten the coupling's metal hose clamps in place to flying shark balloon assure that there will be a leak proof seal between the coupling and cast iron pipes.
