Things to note when remodeling drainage pipes

Introduction: The quality of drainage pipes is the key to construction. Because drainage pipes are related to thousands of households, although the project is not too complicated, the specific conditions of traffic and buildings above the pipes must be taken into consideration during construction. Therefore, drainage pipes, whether they are small pipes in our own homes or large pipes in urban drainage systems, are closely related to our lives. Most of the old projects in the past now need to be renovated, and the drainage pipes must be renovated to meet the needs of urban development.

The process of drainage pipe reconstruction

Before transforming the pipeline, some of our preparatory work is to find out the pipeline to be transformed, and then mark the specific information of the open air on the pipeline. If it is a highway, In order to ensure the quality of pipeline construction, we may destroy some roads. This may have some impact on traffic, and you will need to make some coordination with relevant departments.

There are also many things to pay attention to in terms of specific construction. When digging underground protective trenches in the early stage, preventive work and support work must be done in a timely manner according to the specific conditions of the local soil to avoid landslides. When working under some large buildings or high-voltage telephone poles, you must pay more attention to safe construction, as the ground may sink or deform. Construction must be carried out strictly in accordance with the requirements of the drawings.

During the renovation process, pipes in every place do not necessarily have to be removed. In order to save resources, when some pipelines are running well, when the daily drainage volume is small, the load of the pipelines is small, and the quality of the pipelines is acceptable, I will give full play to my subjective initiative and selective transformation.

Next let’s talk about the installation of drainage pipes. First, you must choose the pipe material. It's not just about quality. We must also consider the replacement location, specific drainage volume, drainage intensity, etc. based on the actual situation. It is definitely not possible that after renovation, the drainage capacity of the pipes will decrease. Wouldn't that be a joke?

During on-site construction, we often encounter problems such as construction distortion, water accumulation, or position deviation on the facade. This is because we blindly followed the old pipeline routes during construction, which led to pipeline laying errors. During construction, construction must be carried out in strict accordance with the drawings. Just because it saves time or a lot of trouble, we can't continue construction according to the old route. That won't work.

Precautions for changing sewer pipes

1. When renovating sewer pipes and applying glue, be sure to clean up the dirt at the interface, and seal the inner circle of the pipe fittings and the pipe. Apply glue to the outer circle. This process is very important. If it is not properly constructed, it may cause water leakage in the sewer pipe.

2. The sewer pipes of the entire building must be equipped with exhaust vents, and remember to design an exhaust hole at the highest point. Otherwise, in the summer, the rotten matter in the sewer pipes will ferment, causing not only the stench, but also the smell. Oh my god, it will also be detrimental to health.

3. When installing sewer pipes, the slope must be mastered. Generally, the water inlet should be higher than the water outlet. The slope ratio is not strictly required, but it should be noted that the ground cannot be raised after the sewer pipe is installed.

4. Remember to add an anti-odor elbow. When renovating sewer pipes, you must consult with the residents downstairs in advance and start construction from downstairs. Otherwise, it will be difficult to add an anti-odor elbow. If there is no anti-odor elbow, the odor can easily enter the room through the pipe.

5. The sewer pipe should not be too long, otherwise it will be detrimental to drainage and easily cause blockage. Once a problem occurs, it will be difficult to repair.

6. After the sewer pipes are renovated, remember to seal them to avoid getting cement into the sewer pipes during the construction of floor tiles. Once the cement solidifies, it is difficult to clean. The only way is to replace the water pipes, which is too troublesome. Big.

7. After the renovation of the sewer pipes, a water filling experiment must be carried out to ensure that there is no leakage, and then the pipes should be fixed. The pipes on the ceiling should be fixed with elevators, and the distance should be ensured to be even. The pipes on the ground should be Bury with cement or plaster.

8. After the sewer pipes are renovated, remember to do a good job of waterproofing to add a layer of protection to the pipes.

9. There should be as few right-angled elbows as possible at turns to reduce drainage resistance. In addition, never use elbows smaller than 90°, as the drainage resistance will be greater.

So we still need to be fully prepared before construction. First, we must make accurate measurements, and then accurately record geological information and ground construction environment information. Finally, we need to fully combine the old pipeline information and make full use of it. This will greatly improve efficiency. The above is the content about the renovation of drainage pipes. I hope it can be helpful to everyone!
