PUSH FIT JOINTING

SOLVENT WELDING IN HOT WEATHER CONDITIONS :

During hot weather conditions of 35°C and above, special consideration should be given to the process of
solvent Welding of UPVC pipes and fittings to ensure a leak proof joint.

Solvent cements contain high strength chemical solvent which evaporate faster at elevated temperatures
and in windy conditions.

When PVC pipes are stored in open areas or under direct sunlight, the pipe surface temperature will be
around 15°C higher than the ambient temperature. The solvent cement attacks the hot surface faster and
deeper. Therefore, it is very important to avoid using excess cement during the jointing process to avoid
creating pools of cement inside the fitting and pipe sockets. Excess solvent cement should be wiped off
the joined surface quickly.

Recommedations for the solvent welding during hot weather confitions:

1. Solvent cement and cleaners should be stored in a cool or shady areas.
2. Pipes and Fittings should be stored in a shady area before solvent welding
3. The surfaces to be joined should be cooled by wiping with a wet cloth. The surfaces should be dry
before applying the solvent cement.
4. Solvent welding is recommended to be done during the cooler morining hours.
5. The two surface should be joined quickly while they are still wet with cement.
6. Shake or stir the solvent cement well before use.
7. Allow at least 24 hours for the joints to cure before pressurizing the system. For sizes above 8” you
should allow at least 48 hours.

COSMOPLAST UPVC INSPECTION CHAMBERS
Inspection chambers are necessary in every drainage installation for inspection, testing
and removal of solids from the drainage system. Cosmoplast Inspection Chamber
provides access to the drainage system allowing rodding in both directions.

DEPTH ADJUSTMENT:
The chamber depth can easily be accommodated by installing the chamber risers one
over the other to achieve the desired height. The last chamber riser can be trimmed to
suit the finished ground level.

COMPONENTS :
