Connecting to the live soil stack - new toilet (part 4)

[@TokkanFX]

You could cut the 54mm hole before you put it on the drain pipe thus reducing the danger of a lost drill or plastic disk.

[@JL-rx6hl]

my thoughts exactly and it allows you to smooth the inside of the pipe as well. for deburring pipes use a side on stanley knife

[@GosforthHandyman]

Yeah, it was mainly to show what's involved when you're working with it in-situ. 👍👍

[@MarkGarth]

Half way in and the potential for multiple double entendres is almost too hard to ignore 🤣👍

Lovely video. The sound is good (many are in audible) and the progress is explained and demonstrated in a very clear manner. It sets a benchmark for others. I would hire you in an instant simply because you come across as a professional. Excellent.

[@Bobrogers99]

I was surprised that you had to make a quick trip to buy a connector. You're so well organized and usually have every part and tool lined up before you begin a project! You are a fallible mortal after all. ;-) A very neat job!

Hi Andy,The down stairs toilet coming on well,it's not the nice's jobs to do but it's got to be done.I did not know about silicone lube on the rubber bungs that it dose not set.I all ways use a bit of washing liquid on all waist fittings. Its all good information and to see it done in another way, I all ways listen to other ideas , it may be better than my way.Great video looks like the next one going to be fun, with that plaster board looks like fitting square pegs in round holes. Have fun see you in the next video , take care mate.

[@GosforthHandyman]

Washing up liquid is fine, but the silicone lubricant is more slippy. You can also get it as a spray. 👍

[@andyc972]

Well that could've gone a lot worse Andy, not surprised it took a day though, better to take it steady and as you said get organised before you start ! Glad you sealed up the pipe, not only the issue with bad smells, I recently had to replace our downstairs bog as the builders left the floor so uneven that it rocked and made the close couple leak over time. Having levelled the floor I had to leave it to dry with the pan disconnected so shoved some newspaper down the pipe. later on while working in the next room I was aware of a faint noise, which when I got closer was clearly paper being torn from the other side ! I was very pleased when I could get the pan reconnected, I reckon the little devils can sense the warm air from the house and come looking ! Just glad I'd blocked it and was there to hear the noise ! 😳😬

[@GosforthHandyman]

Oh no!! Rats? Little buggers! 😮

[@rafezetter8003]

[@GosforthHandyman]

Very short video, for me. 😂

[@SeanBZA]

Those rubber 50mm couplers easiest way to get them in is to use the PVC weld on them. Going to be a bear to get out again, but definitely never going to slip out or leak. If you do need it apart simply use the heat gun to warm it up to nice and toasty, and it comes apart, which works for the PVC welded fittings as well. Have taken plenty of them apart that way, though generally you decide which part you are going to destroy, normally the pipe, but sometimes the fitting is the one that had to do the destruction, as the pipe was well stuck in the wall.

[@GosforthHandyman]

Interesting - never tried that!

[@Geoffbell01]

“so close” - pipe falls out. Great video, as always.

[@GosforthHandyman]

[@sergiofernandez3725]

[@GosforthHandyman]

[@antoniogalluccio4213]

Could you use a 50mm to 40mm solvent weld reducer instead of the rubber in the soild stack fitting?

[@xtomvideo]

Of all the difficult jobs you did it sounds like removing the pipe stickers was the worst :) great video series

[@johnavery15]

The innuendo was high on this one! I did think when you were installing the T piece why is he not drilling for the small waste pipe before installation? Hindsight is a wonderful thing!!!

[@GosforthHandyman]

Ha yes, although that approach has its own disadvantages (when I change my mind 😆)

[@mnaz8634]

Great job. Can i just ask why not solvent weld a straight coupler on the 40mm?

[@awantamta]

Great job as usual with great skills

[@GosforthHandyman]

No worries!

[@leona_devon]

Great video, loved all the innuendos 😅

[@GosforthHandyman]

😆

[@AdiSneakerFreak]

A great video as always. I’d also recommend as an alternative in these situations using a McAlpine mechanical 40mm pipe boss. Just cut in where you need to and apply/seal the boss which is curved to match the 110mm pipe and comes off with your 40mm :). Cheers and keep making those vids mate.

[@GosforthHandyman]

Cheers bud! 👍👍

[@rafezetter8003]

Also known as a "strap on" boss.

Handy tip for getting sticky labels off most things…spray with lots of furniture polish and let it soak in for a while.

[@dwalsh3469]

In the interim, before Big Pipe starts using easy peel labels, CT Multisolve is an easy win. I (don’t quite) never leave home without it. No more sticky. Gone.

[@GosforthHandyman]

Good tip! 👍

[@sylviagreybe672]

Why are some pipes/bits of pupe glued, and some only siliconed or dry or joined with a coupler? Genuinely interested.

[@GosforthHandyman]

Very good question! I might make a video about this. Solvent is generally best. Very rarely leaks... but it's permanent. The big waste pipes (110mm) are almost always push-fit though. Makes them easier to maintain and they rarely leak.

[@freetolook3727]

Those pipes don't have to be glued together with PVC cement?

[@GosforthHandyman]

Not for the big ones - they're almost always push fit over here. 👍

Hi , ive built a garden room and looking to put a toilet in ,I've got approx 25 meters of pipe to go in ,unfortunately the waste pipe for the house isn't that low so i can only have the waste pipe underground half way along my garden ,then it will be above ground the rest of the way along the wall. I was going to box the pipe in with brick to hide it ,I don't want a macerator ,has anyone ever experienced this problem?

[@lotsofspoons]

Phrasing!

[@GosforthHandyman]

😎

[@freetolook3727]

After you work on black water pipes, wash hands with anti bacterial soap then wash hands with hydrogen peroxide. You wouldn't believe how many little tiny scratches, nicks, scrapes and cuts will fizz meaning that there was possible infection starting. Soap won't clean completely but the peroxide will.

[@GosforthHandyman]

Does that not take your skin off too? 🤔

[@freetolook3727]

No, it's not acidic. Quite the contrary. You can also use hydrogen peroxide to whiten your teeth and clean your mouth. Swish it around like mouthwash then spit it out and rinse with water. Try not to swallow it. Even if you do though the most is you'll end up with a tummy ache. Also pour baking soda down your sink and bath drain traps. Then pour some peroxide down and it'll fizzle cleaning your drain traps out!

[@Monkeh616]

Just keep it away from your acetone, or it'll do more than take your skin off.

[@freetolook3727]

I'll be sure to take the can of acetone out of my medicine cabinet right away! 😂😂

The other thing with wearing gloves, they can cause you to be unaware that you have touched something undesirable, and the next thing is you've smeared it down a wall, or all over the handle of your drill or something. 😁

It's one thing to be squeamish about touching your poo pipe (errr...), it's another thing to cut the poo pipe with a mitre saw, notorious for flinging dust _everywhere,_ while not wearing PPE. Personally, I wouldn't have used a power tool for that cut, and I certainly wouldn't have done it in the workshop. Half your workshop is now contaminated with fecal matter.
