Our brown soil pipe range is manufactured to meet BS EN 1329-1:2000 and BS 4514:2001 standards, ensuring quality and reliability. This durable solvent weld system is available in black and olive grey, offering excellent resistance to ultraviolet light, most inorganic acids and alkalis, and even boiling water. Specifically formulated to not support combustion, it is ideal for long-term use in demanding environments.

For secure and lasting connections, use SC125 or SC250 Solvent Cement, manufactured to BS6209 standards. This range is designed for robust performance and easy installation, ensuring compatibility with modern drainage systems.

Installation Guide: Planning for Soil Pipes

When installing a soil pipe system, follow these steps in line with BS EN 1610:1998 standards:

1. Preparation:

   • Begin assembling the new soil stack from the base, working upwards.
   • Mark the positions of pipe brackets before starting. Drill and fix the screws at these positions to prepare for pipe installation.

2. Bracket Placement:

   • Fix pipe or socket brackets with the following spacing:
     • A maximum of 2 meters for vertical runs.
     • A maximum of 1 meter for horizontal runs.

3. Allow for Expansion:

   • Leave a 10mm gap inside each fitting to allow for pipe expansion during warmer weather. This ensures the pipes remain straight and prevents warping.
   • Soil fittings with spigot ends should be inserted into sockets up to the depth mark engraved on the spigot. This depth accounts for the required expansion gap.

4. Expansion Joints:

   • Install expansion joints every 4 meters to accommodate temperature changes.

5. Sealant Application:

   • Use silicone lubricant on all seals to make jointing easier and ensure a watertight connection.

6. Access Points and Testing:

   • Incorporate suitable access points and branch bends to facilitate system testing and maintenance.

By following these steps, you can ensure a reliable and durable soil pipe system installation.
