Extended Product Information
FAQs
What is a 3-way boss pipe used for?
A 3-way boss pipe is used to connect three separate pipes into a single main pipe within a soil and vent system, typically for combining waste from multiple fixtures.
Can I use this with solvent weld and push-fit pipes together?
While the boss pipe itself accepts both connection types, you must use the appropriate method for each pipe you are connecting. You cannot mix methods on a single joint.
What is the main benefit of the PolySoil® range?
The PolySoil® range offers a comprehensive and compatible system of pipes and fittings designed for efficient, reliable, and straightforward installation of soil and vent systems.
Is this product suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, Polypipe soil and vent products are designed for external use as part of a building's drainage system and are made from durable, weather-resistant materials.
How do I clean a blockage near this fitting?
If a blockage occurs, attempt to clear it from the nearest access point. For blockages around this junction, carefully use a drain snake or rod, ensuring not to damage the pipework or seals.
What is the warranty period for Polypipe soil products?
Polypipe typically offers a long warranty on their soil and vent systems, often 25 years or more, provided the products are installed and maintained according to their guidelines. Refer to Polypipe's official documentation for exact warranty terms.
Troubleshooting
Leak at connection point
Check that the pipe is fully inserted into the socket for push-fit connections. For solvent weld, ensure the joint was made correctly and the cement has cured. Inspect seals and consider re-making the joint if necessary.
Slow drainage or blockages
This boss pipe is a junction; blockages are often further down the system. Check for obstructions in connected pipes. Ensure the system has adequate ventilation. Consider using a drain snake or professional cleaning services.
Odours escaping the system
Check that all joints are secure. Ensure the vent pipe connected to the system is clear and functional. If an Air Admittance Valve (AAV) is used, ensure it is correctly installed and operational.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Ensure the ends of the pipes to be joined are clean and free from debris.
For push-fit ring seal connections, apply a silicone lubricant to the spigot end of the pipe and the socket of the boss pipe. Push the pipe firmly into the socket until it reaches the ring seal.
For solvent weld connections, ensure both surfaces are clean. Apply solvent cement to both the spigot end of the pipe and the inside of the socket. Immediately push the pipe into the socket with a slight twisting motion and hold for a few seconds to ensure a bond.
Refer to the specific instructions provided with any ancillary products (e.g., sealants, cements) for precise application.
Compatibility:
This boss pipe is designed for use with Polypipe's PolySoil® range and other standard 110mm soil and vent pipes.
It is compatible with both push-fit ring seal and solvent weld jointing methods within the PolySoil® system.
Ensure all ancillary components, such as connectors and fixings, are rated for soil and vent applications.
Care:
Regularly check the visible parts of the system for any signs of damage or leaks.
Avoid pouring harsh chemicals or excessive grease down drains, as this can affect the system's performance.
In freezing conditions, ensure the system is adequately ventilated to prevent blockages from ice formation.
