Hi all, just a quick question if anyone can help.

I have a new 50mm stack around 2.5m high for shower and basin upstairs. It runs in the corner of the utility room, all solvent weld and the washing machine will enter near the base.
It then runs into a 110mm pipe under the floor.

Due to expansion, when I run hot water it clicks where it's clipped and moves slightly. I did look out for suitable push fit expansion joints but couldn't find.

Any suggestions?
 
It'll take the solvent pipe - chamfered end an a spray of silicone grease. Then a spray of silicone on the clips - it'll be all quiet then.
