FAQs

What tools do I need for installation?

You typically only need a pipe cutter or saw, measuring tape, and possibly some pipe lubricant.

Can I use this connector with different pipe materials?

Yes, it is designed for 110mm PVC pipes and is compatible with most cast iron and clayware drainage systems.

How do I ensure a watertight seal?

Make sure the connector is fully inserted into both pipes, and ensure the ring seal is properly seated. Inspect the connections after installation.

What is the lifespan of the FloPlast Soil Pipe Connector?

The connector is made from durable PVCu and, with proper installation and care, should last for many years.

Can this connector be used for above-ground applications?

While primarily designed for underground use, it can be used above ground as long as it's protected from direct sunlight to prevent UV damage.

Is the installation reversible?

Where can I find additional sizes or types?

Check with your local plumbing supply store or online retailer for other flexible drainage connectors.

Troubleshooting

Connector won't fit into existing pipe.

Ensure the pipe is clean and free from obstructions. Check the pipe diameter to confirm compatibility. If necessary, use a lubricant designed for plumbing to ease the fitting.

Leakage after installation.

Ensure the connection is fully engaged. Check the ring seal socket for any damage. Tighten the connection or replace the connector if necessary.
