When replacing an old soil pipe, the chances are that it connects to either a clay or cast-iron pipe and with Osma’s easy-to-use adaptors it’s a very easy task. For larger commercial or high rise projects Wavin HDPE is a tough and durable system of pipes and fittings manufactured from high-density polyethylene (PEHD). It offers incredible chemical resistance and great impact resistance. Wavin AS+ Acoustic Soil System Waste pipes carry wastewater (greywater) from showers, sinks, baths, washing machines and dishwashers. The most common sizes of waste pipes in the UK are 32mm, 40mm and 50mm. Wavin Osma Soil and Vent offer you secure and durable connections by push-fit or solvent jointing. HDPE Soil, Waste and Vent Kit Contains: 1 x 110mm Soil Pipe Reducer -- 1 x 32mm Boss Adaptor -- 1 x 40mm Boss Adaptor -- 1 x 50mm Boss Adaptor

Whereas solvent weld allows connection to ABS pipe which is manufactured to BS EN 1455-1 and PVC-C pipe manufactured to BS EN 1566-1. Typical internal waste pipe connection to drain Osma Soil Pipe connections to PVC-U drainage pipes are incredibly straightforward with the ring seal/push-fit Jointing and Osma Below Ground Drainage fittings via the OsmaDrain Bend 4D581 and OsmaDrain Coupler 4D205.

To connect your soil system, we offer push-fit and solvent weld waste ranges, traps, over-flow and condensate ranges to cover every installation need. Unpleasant and other dangerous gasses, like methane, are produced from bodily waste so soil systems are designed to release these gasses from the system.There are several requirements that must be followed when connecting soil and waste pipes to below ground drains which are set out in the Approved Documents of the UK building regulations. Sometimes goods can be delivered in multiple deliveries, this is due to some items coming direct from suppliers or our own yard. If this is the case, multiple charges will be combined at the basket.

If you’re working with a cast-iron pipe, grind through part way to remove the old soil pipe. Then fit the adaptor. With a flexible base, it’s simple to push the adaptor down into the existing pipe. Wavin AS+ is a high-spec plastic sound-insulating Soil & Waste system manufactured using high density mineral reinforced polypropylene (PP). With the type of waste soil pipes transports, the size of the pipe is another important factor, and in the UK 110mm is the most commonly used soil pipe size. Due to the unique material composition for improved noise performance, premium reduction of unwanted sound emissions by the drainage system inside the building is assured. It works the same way for a clay pipe. First, you’ll need to fit an adaptor and then you can press in the rest of the new soil pipe. Part H requirements for connecting soil and waste to below ground drainsBoss Adaptor Specifications: Fitting Diameter: 60mm -- Overall Diameter: 68mm -- Pipe Connection Diameter: 50mm -- Height: 29mm Although soil pipes and waste pipes both transport wastewater out of a property and into the sewer, there are a few key differences between the two. The first is the type of waste they carry and the second is the size of the pipe. Soil pipe overview When it comes to connecting soil and waste pipes below ground, the Wavin Osma systems make it much simpler to enable direct connection of Osma Above and Below Ground with the use of couplers, connectors and adaptors. Incredibly versatile, these fixtures also work well with other systems made of PVC-U, cast iron and clay. Connecting to PVC-U

In this blog, we’ll explore the principles of soil and waste pipes and will explain how to connect both to a below ground drainage system. What is the main difference between a soil pipe and waste pipe?
