This tubing is not for use with potable water, as stated on your hyperlinked webpage, so how can this pipe be suitable for bathing/swimming chlorinated water if it will chemically degrade with plasticizer/plastic leachate over time?
This needs more advice on installation. For example, how to insert the pipe deeply into the coupling. The deeper the insertion, the greater resistance to insertion by the pipe glue. Normal depth is about 1/2 inch and yet the coupling offers possibly 2-inches before reaching the barrier. How do you reliably join the pipe to the coupling at a desired depth. What level of force is required to seat to a given depth. What techniques, etc.
I thought they would be easier to snap on. I'm afraid I might break them in the process on attaching them. I definitely don't see being able to snap them on to mark where I want them and align them and then adding glue. Any suggestions?
And what if even THAT does not give you fine enough control over the direction of the pipe? I ran into this problem when I replaced my backyard sewer line. The glue (seal) at the joints has to be perfect, or it won't pass the pressure test (code compliance). That means you absolutely do NOT want the joints to be under any stress or strain...like the strain it would put them under if you attempt to bend a long section of 4" PVC. On the web, I see that 15-degree fittings are also sold, but they are very expensive, and my local hardware store doesn't even carry them. Why? Wouldn't almost everyone need them? Apparently not. So, what am I failing to consider? It seems like everyone would need them, and they would sell a lot of them. Was I supposed to trench my backyard with the idea in mind that (for the most part) the trench has to come to the pipe, and not the other way around? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. P.S. - I'm sure someone will comment that I should have just used a rubber boot coupling. However, the inspector for the city (who was a plumber) urged me NOT to that. He said it is nothing but an invitation for a place for a clog to begin to form.
