General Description

Finishes

Heritage LCC push fit soil and waste pipes and fittings are factory coated with a 2 pack semi gloss paint finish, suitable for internal and external installations. All the pipe also has a yellow ochre two part internal coating.

Standards

Heritage LCC push fit waste pipes and fittings comply with the requirements of BS 416: Discharge, ventilating pipes and fittings, sand cast or spun in cast iron, Part 2. Heritage LCC push fit systems also comply with the relevant sections of the Building Regulations throughout the United Kingdom. The synthetic rubber gasket comply with the requirements of BS EN 681:1.

Installation

BS 8000: Workmanship on building sites, Part 13, Code of practice for above ground drainage and sanitary appliances, 1989 is applicable.

Suitability

Cast iron should not be used for conveying acid wastes or laid unprotected in any soil conditions where corrosion could occur.

On-site Storage

To avoid accidental damage to collars or pipe ends, pipes should be stored horizontally, blocked up clear of the ground and preferably under cover.

Imperial Dimensions

All products are made to the original imperial dimensions. This ensures a compatible interchange between old and new pipes and fittings and makes it more likely that, where an existing installation is being repaired or replaced, the original fixing holes can be re-used.

Pipe Fixing and Support

Holderbats for plugging and screwing to walls are available. Bobbins should be used to pack out the holderbat to give a 32mm painting gap for pipes up 50mm (2") diameter and 38mm for the 100mm (4”) diameter pipes. For fixing centres reference should be made to BS 8000: Maximum distance between sanitary pipe supports, Table 1.

Pipe Joints

Pipe joints should be made push fit sockets with rubber gaskets, available in 3 versions: Eared, Plain & Slip Sockets. These should be fitted in conjunction with the gasket relaxing tool and an appropriate lubricant.

Testing

The Building Regulations 1991, Requirement H1, Approved Document paragraph 1.7(a) requires that all the pipes, fittings and joints should be capable of withstanding an air or smoke test of at least 38mm gauge, for 3 minutes
