Evening all,
My house is an old style 2 up 2 down with the kitchen and bathroom in a downstairs extension. The 2 sinks and bath waste run along the outside of the house to above a drain at the back of the extension where they empty. Because of this I have 3 sets of pipes running to the same small drain making the back look untidy.
As well as this pipework we also have guttering on the back which runs into a waterbutt which the previous owners had, however the waterbutt easily fills up in next to no time and I spend a lot of time emptying it so it doesn't overfill.
To tidy things up a bit I've been looking into putting 1 or 2 of the pipes into the vertical external soil pipe but have a couple of questions regarding fitting.
First of all, once the boss strap has been fitted, is a rubber adaptor needed to give a waterproof fit? If so will this also allow the waste pipe to go in at an angle and still be watertight?
And secondly, with regards to the guttering, I currently have 68mm which I know they don't do a boss for, however I have been looking at the 50mm miniline instead. Looking online it appears they do 50mm boss straps and adaptors so would these be fine for the miniline guttering?
Thanks
