In some cases, it is necessary to make a connection to the sewer section of a separate outlet. The specifics of the process depend on the material, the available accessories and the type of system. Note that it is necessary to make a tie-in into the sewer pipe only in accordance with the technology used, only in this case it is possible to guarantee the quality of the connection and its long-term operation without the need for repair. If you do the work in accordance with the requirements and instructions, this is quite within the power of a beginner and a person without experience.
Depending on the time of laying the sewer, the materials used may differ. Old sewer systems are made of metal carriers, the connection to which is carried out in a physical way. In other words, the metal is cut and an additional outlet is added by welding (including cold welding) or through a tee.
This is the so-called economy option for systems that are in good condition. If the area is severely damaged by rust or dirty, it makes sense to change the entire pipeline along with the connection.
From the quite obvious advice, let's get down to business - we will reveal the question of how a tie-in is made into a cast-iron sewer pipe. In practice, it is not uncommon not only to crash, but to connect the pipeline with the metal-plastic section. In practice, the reliability of such work leaves much to be desired. At the same time, materials are proposed that can effectively join metal materials and "plastic". Let's talk about connecting to the sewer pipe.
For these purposes, a mortise clamp is used, which is an adapter between a diameter of 110 mm and the selected size. Mortise clamps are sold in a wide range and allow you to go to almost any diameter. The accessory is selected depending on the type of sewage, there are models that allow you to cut under pressure.
For domestic needs, the usual flange version is suitable. It securely holds the connection and does not require routine inspection. If site repair is also required, use an overlay model.
Instruction:
A similar job can be done with a coupler saddle. This is a reliable, albeit more expensive mount. If you do not want to incur costs, make an insert with the transition to "plastic". At the same time, mortise couplings and saddles will provide a high-quality and most durable insert that does not require repair during the entire service life. They are applicable, including for wells.
There are products of Russian and foreign manufacturers on the market. The recommendations of many masters relate to Jimten slip-on couplings, which provide the required quality of connection at a fairly low price.
The sequence of work on connecting to a cast-iron pipe with a high-quality transition to a new section:
The proposed method provides a reliable and aesthetic solution to the problem of the transition between the old and new section of the PVC sewer. It is recommended by experts for open areas, for example, to connect with a sun lounger in the basement. Such a connection should be checked periodically, although the materials used guarantee a durable fastening that does not require additional maintenance.
Instructions for connecting to PVC:
To insert the sewerage of an additional outlet into the well below the ground level, as in the photo, a different method is used, namely tees at 45 and 90 degrees. Such a connection will allow you to connect a summer kitchen or a bath to the sewer.
For work you will need:
Instruction:
Connection to the plastic sewer with a tee at 45 or 90 degrees, see the video:
You can see in detail how this is done in the video. Connection to a cast-iron pipe is carried out using a 110 mm mortise coupling. The Jimten brand also has sewer drains that allow you to crash and switch to PVC without the hassle without cutting off the sewer section. This is one of a limited number of brands that produce such devices.
Inserting into a sewer pipe is quite simple.
To connect a dishwasher or washing machine, depending on the sewer pipes (plastic or cast iron), the tie-in is carried out in different ways. Accordingly, various tools and materials are needed.
To do everything right, you must first free the area in which you want to insert, since, for example, in an apartment, the sewer system can be closed with decorative boxes or furniture.
It is also advisable to clean the sewer with a cable before inserting, or use different chemicals, and after that you can proceed to the final work.
This method has a number of disadvantages, one of them is the formation of burrs during drilling, which somewhat reduces the clearance and can lead to faster clogging of the system. The second drawback is that with such a tie-in, a large amount of water cannot be drained, especially with a powerful stream. From under the adapter, despite the sealing, in this case, water can begin to drip - from a few drops to quite powerful streams.
If a, For example,an old cast-iron pipe is installed and access to it is limited, the tie-in is done in the following way:
In the course of the work (if the apartment is not on the top floor), neighbors should be warned so that they do not use the sewerage system while the necessary plumbing work is underway.
Despite the emergence of modern plumbing materials, in particular, plastic and metal-plastic products, cast-iron sewer options are installed in many houses, especially old ones.
To crash into them at home, you must definitely use a grinder to drill a hole.
The old grandfather method (hacksaw + hammer) cannot be used, especially on old pipes, as there is a risk of breaking them either completely or partially.
Instruction:
After acquiring an apartment, people, as a rule, make repairs in it, during which it is best to change all the old cast-iron sewers to modern plastic ones. The same applies to all plumbing.
It is incomparably easier to make a tie-in into a modern plastic sewer than into an old cast-iron one. The easiest way is to use a tee, which is purchased with the same diameter as the plastic pipe itself.
Namely:
When installing, be sure to use plumbing sealant. If you do not want to completely cut, then you can limit yourself to drilling a hole of the diameter that is needed. If the sewer pipe or riser is 50 mm in diameter, then the hole must be drilled 22 mm, if 110 mm, then the hole diameter can be 50 mm.
You can cut a hole in a plastic pipe using an electric jigsaw
After drilling, the hole should be processed with a file and sandpaper so that no burrs remain. A special adapter purchased at the store is lubricated with sealant, inserted into the hole and secured with clamps.
In the water supply, the tie-in is carried out in the following way. A set of saddle clamps is purchased. They are 2 semicircular halves of a plastic pipe with rubber gaskets and an outlet in one of them. The water is shut off, a hole is drilled, then the saddle clamps are installed in the intended place and pulled together with bolts.
This element connects the sewer network to the atmosphere. This is necessary to prevent rarefaction of air in the sewer and suction of water into it from siphons in apartments. When the water leaves the siphons, odors from the sewer begin to penetrate into the apartment.
If initially during construction such elements were not installed, then a tie-in should be made into the sewer riser.
Sometimes it happens that one outlet from the sewer is not enough or one pipe is made for several risers. In this case, it is required to make an additional tie-in either in the riser or in the pipe. If it is plastic, then making a tie-in into it is quite simple. But if it is made of metal or cast iron, then more effort will be required, since it will be necessary to cut the riser, insert a tee and perform a fairly large amount of work.
Nuances:
It is important to do everything right and not rush to get the result, because in case of improper installation, everything will need to be redone, and this will require additional costs both in material terms and in terms of labor.
If the owner of the house himself cannot or does not want to do everything on his own, you can turn to professionals. It is only worthwhile to clarify in advance in different companies how much it will cost either to completely replace the entire sewage system, or to partially insert into an existing one.
There are several ways to connect an additional pipeline to an existing sewer pipe. The choice of method depends on the specific circumstances of the connection.
The most common situation: it is necessary to connect an additional plumbing fixture to a plastic sewer pipe with a diameter of 50 mm.
In this case, it is still more reasonable to disassemble the sewer pipe. And insert a tee at the connection point. Work is performed in the following sequence:
The result is a one-piece stationary pipeline with a connection for a new plumbing fixture.
The only thing is that it is recommended to select an oblique tee (with an acute angle - an angle in the direction of fluid movement), in order to reduce the likelihood of clogging.
But there are situations when it is impossible to disassemble the pipe or it is necessary to crash into a cast-iron pipe, which, by its appearance, seems to say that it is better not to touch it ...
Then the tie-in into the sewer pipe will help out by drilling a hole in it according to the diameter of the connected branch.
A fitting is used at the connection point, which is called an adapter. It is a cap with a branch for a connected pipe. Attracted at the connection point with clamps.
It is selected according to two parameters: - the diameter of the pipeline to which it is connected and the diameter of the connected pipe.
In general, a tie-in kit is not difficult to purchase in a store.
But the adapter can only connect a pipeline whose diameter is two times smaller than that of the pipe into which the tie-in is made. It is also important that the connection to a horizontal pipe is made only from above or with a deviation of up to 45 degrees from the vertical. This is important, since the inserted pipe should not interfere with the drains.
Tapping into the sewer pipeline using an adapter is carried out in the following order.
Insertion into the sewer riser can also be done in different ways.
Usually the riser has a diameter of 110 mm (plastic pipes). If a smaller diameter pipe is connected, for example 50 or 40 mm, then the adapter already described can be used.
But you need to remember that if the riser is passing, i.e. Since there is a drain from the upper floors, it is undesirable for the protruding parts of the incoming pipe to be in the riser. Otherwise, this place will become a collection of debris falling from the top. Or even a blockage in the pipe, if a rag falls on top of the protruding pipe ...
Otherwise, the insert into the riser of a pipe 50 or 40 mm in diameter does not differ from the above technology using an adapter.
It is only important to determine the tie-in point so that the connected pipeline has the desired slope.
But if a pipeline of the same diameter (110mm) is supposed to be inserted, then the situation becomes complicated. But solvable. Then the connection to the riser is made in this way: a piece of the riser is cut out and two fittings are inserted in its place - a tee and a compensator.
Precise calculations must be made before installing the tee and compensator.
The main thing is to determine the height of the tee. After installation, its outlet must be at a given height level to ensure the necessary slope of the pipeline connected to it. This takes into account the length of the riser, which will enter the lower socket of the tee.
This determines the lower mark along which the riser will be cut.
Then the top mark is determined. The cut length of the riser must be equal to (or slightly longer than) the length of the compensator so that it can be brought under the riser. The length of the compensator is added to the lower mark, and the upper mark is obtained.
Before starting work, do the following:
Work on connecting to the sewer riser is performed in the following order:
That's actually all. It remains to fix the riser to the wall with clamps if its fastening has been destroyed.
But it is still not recommended to take on cutting out part of the riser, if you have not dealt with sewage and pipes before. It is better to entrust it to professionals.
Tapping into a sewer pipe will require the appropriate tool, depending on the method and material of the pipes. How to crash into a plastic or cast iron pipe, we will consider in more detail in this article!
Often there are situations when it is necessary to insert pipes into an existing sewer system to organize a drain from a new household appliance. Naturally, you can just get by with a tee. However, this approach can only be implemented when a tie-in is made into a cast-iron sewer pipe 110. In a system built from PVC pipes, one tee is indispensable.
To solve the problem, there are several options for working.
As noted earlier, this option is used in 90 percent of cases in a situation where the tee is mounted on a metal pipe. The thing is that to strengthen the junction of the two parts, you will have to use welding. And at the initial stage of work, it is necessary to cut the pipe and cut off a piece, which in its parameters will most closely resemble the tee used for installation. It should be borne in mind that the tee in the considered tie-in method will be mounted in the form of a coupling on a pipe segment.
When work needs to be carried out with a system made using PVC pipes. One pipe should be replaced by several short sections, between which a piece of pipe equipped with a branch pipe will be placed. It is in this part that additional equipment will be connected. The problem in this installation is the connection using sockets, which are intended for inserting a pipe.
A tie-in to the sewer, during the installation of which plastic pipes were used, can be carried out on its own. For work that will solve the problem of how to crash into a plastic sewer pipe, you will need:
If the tie-in into the sewer pipe is carried out in places with a small liquid pressure, then there is no need to use clamps. Here it is enough to connect the flange to the pipe with ordinary electrical tape.
If you need a tie-in into the sewer riser from metal parts, it is best to use a ready-made tee that has a slightly larger diameter than the pipe. From the tee, you must first separate the part without the branch pipe.
However, there are often situations when you have to prepare the flange on your own. To do this, you need to purchase a pipe, the value of the inner circumference of which will coincide with the value of the outer circumference parameter of the connection pipe. Next, the part is cut longitudinally, a hole is drilled in it and a pipe is welded. To fully answer the problem of how to crash into a cast-iron sewer pipe, all that remains is to weld the prepared flange to the pipe. If the welding machine is not at hand, then you should use any sealed mixture and clamps.
It is worth remembering that before starting the tie-in, you must make sure that there is no fluid pressure in it.
The situation when you need to connect to an already functioning sewer can arise at any time. Buying a new dishwasher or washing machine, installing a washbasin or faucet, connecting a heating pipe - all of the above is a reason to tie into the sewer system.
The modern market is ready to offer the consumer a wide range of various adapters, which are the ideal solution for each specific situation. Connecting with them will not be a problem. Currently, there are two most common tie-in methods:
To perform high-quality work with the adapter, you should follow the following list of simple steps:
The quality of the tie-in to the sewerage system will allow the owner of the home to avoid repairing the entire system and connect a new plumbing or household appliance without any problems.
It is this problem that often causes a sewer tie-in. At the same time, it occurs not only in the houses of the old layout, but also in new apartments designed taking into account modern operating conditions. It is in such houses that the pipe in the bathroom, where the washing machine is installed, is concreted into the wall. So it turns out that it is easier to make a tie-in than to engage in the installation of a new siphon of owls with seven ensuing consequences.
To work, you will need the following tools:
The work is carried out in the following sequence:
The last step is to lubricate the edges of the joint with a sealant. As soon as the grease hardens, an additional connecting layer is formed at the junction.
A tie-in to a sewer pipe is necessary when installing an internal or external household sewer for a new home, to divert storm water to a sewage treatment plant, to connect a new plumbing fixture (sink, dishwasher or washing machine). A skillfully executed tie-in will help to avoid a radical replacement of the elements of the existing sewer.
Inserting a new branch into a sewer pipe involves connecting an apartment or house to a local sewer, to vertical risers or a horizontal bed. There are many ways to properly and reliably make eyeliner. And the building materials market offers a large selection of various devices in the form of adapters. But for the sewer to work properly after the tie-in, you need to know what are the simplest ways to make a tie-in into the sewer without involving expensive specialists, but doing all the plumbing work yourself.
When starting to insert into a sewer pipe, one must prepare for the fact that the work will be dirty, which means that you will need to wear overalls. Before starting the process, you need to learn that all horizontal connections must have a slope.
The amount of slope will depend on the diameter of the workpiece:
It is not recommended to make slopes of a larger size (counter slopes), since silt deposits will settle on the inner walls, narrowing the clearance. It is more rational to cut into a horizontal pipeline from above, so there will be less blockages and possible leaks during operation.
To enter a new wiring into an existing one, you need a branch pipe (a small piece of pipe) and clamps that will play the role of fasteners. After all the necessary parts have been purchased, you can begin to work on tie-in PVC sewer pipes.
Work must be performed in the following sequence:
The clamp can be bought ready-made, or you can make it yourself. For self-production, you must perform a number of actions:
A tee is needed to supply several additional sections to the main sewer. When inserting a new sewer outlet into PVC sewer pipes, tees are rarely used, since joining two plastic parts in this way is fraught with depressurization of the connection zones. Such adapters are more often used in the case of insertion into cast-iron wiring.
When tapping into a sewer pipe using a tee, you must perform the following steps:
A special bracket is used to fix the input wiring in the desired position. The main difficulty may be connecting the existing wiring to the tee if the cast iron system is old. Old outlets are often located close to the floor and can be difficult to access due to tiling. It is difficult to make a joint when the pipes fit snugly against the wall. All these reasons impair access to the attachment point.
Gaps and joints of joints are protected with sealant. High-quality sealing materials are silicone fillers, epoxy resins, special sealing tapes that are very popular now. Before sealing, the cast-iron joint must be cleaned of grease, dirt, old waterproofing, after which it is possible to wrap the part of the existing wiring with a new tee with two layers of sealing tape.
A plumbing adapter is a device that is designed to join pipelines that do not have a convenient connection. The method of tapping into the sewer using an adapter is used when it is necessary to connect additional plumbing (for example, a washing machine), and it is not possible to disassemble or cut the existing pipeline.
Such a connection is possible only in a PVC sewer pipe, in which a hole is cut out according to the size of the incoming branch. The adapter has the form of a cap with a tap for the plug-in input. The introduced pipeline should be much smaller in cross section than the main one (at least 2 times). This requirement is a disadvantage, since it is necessary to have just such a ratio of the main and supply wiring.
The procedure for performing work on tie-in into a sewer pipe using an adapter:
By connecting sewer outlets to existing risers, you can purchase all the parts and elements necessary for work at a plumbing store. The kit will include blanks of the desired section, connecting cuffs, rubber gaskets, clamps. But you need to know that when making a tie-in into the riser, an additional supply system will act on it with an increased load.
To cut the pipeline into a vertical sewer riser, you need to purchase a compensator. A pipeline compensator is a device that reduces the harmful effects on materials, reduces the load on structures, prevents various negative effects from pressure and vibration, thereby extending the working life of the sewer system.
To bring the connection to the sewer riser, you must have an adjustable socket for the required number of outlets and home-made or ready-made clamps.
Having everything to do the work, you can start eyeliner:
