Crimp PEX fittings in PEX tubing installation

At PEX fittings compression PEX tubing held a special split ferrule, which is compressed when unscrewed, the external threaded portion of PEX fitting long nut. Tighten nut ferrule tightly clasps metal pipe, pressing her inner surface to the surface of the PEX fitting socket. Seal joints provided sealing rings located at both the socket PEX fitting, and inside the clamp nut. The connection of metal pipes with compression PEX fittings – loosely, permits repeated assembly – disassemble of joints.

Each of the PEX fittings described has its advantages and disadvantages. Press PEX fittings are securely connected to the metal-tube, because the connection pipe PEX fitting, achieved an almost one-piece molding. However, mounting press PEX fittings require special tools to crimp – press machines, manual or hydraulic. Work on installing the press PEX fitting requires some experience, bad crimp crimp sleeve can cause an accident PEX plumbing. Installation of compression PEX fittings is carried out by conventional wrenches, movable or carob, a connection can make the installer even with little experience with metal-PEX tubing. However, the connection obtained in this way is often leaky, which leads to leaks in the joints of compression PEX fittings and metal pipes.

Pipes, connections are done with the use of press PEX fittings, thanks to the reliability of the connection can be removed in the channels of the work being done in the walls, that is, possible to hide the installation of PEX plumbing. Connection made by compression PEX fittings require constant monitoring for leaks, so the main area of their application – water pipes, mounted an open way.

The main requirements for PEX fittings: To ensure a reliable connection between a pipe and PEX plumbing fixtures, long-term trouble-free operation, and ease of installation, ultimately decreasing the cost of works on arrangement of PEX plumbing.

Installing bath

Installing bath is carried out almost the same except for some features.

Schematic procedure of installing bath is as follows:
Demolition of the old, if any. Prior to this, should cut off the water, excess water drained.
Assembling all elements of the runoff (and sewage overflow grating).
Attachment of the matrix and assembly.
Alignment baths with level and adjustable feet.
Connecting to the nearest standpipe drain pipes, observing the slope of not less than 2 cm per meter (then drain the water and check the tightness).
Locking legs on the bathroom floor with cement mortar.

As is evident from the order of operations, the connection of any bath starts with elements of runoff and trap assembly: outdoor plastic siphon with overflow and release of iron or brass siphon with the release of iron and overflow. In some cases, have to collect the siphon from the transition tee and the other, carved on a lathe and welded parts.

After installation of the siphon, it is necessary to attach to the bathtub feet and install a bath so that the exit pipe of the siphon entered the sewer pipe. In the cast-iron siphon replace the steel pipe. In bath tightly up against the wall and do a small bias towards the issue.
It must be remembered that the board baths should be parallel to the floor, legs should ensure a stable position bath during operation. Check tightness of space accession baths with sewage and leaks and overflow output.

When you install the bath is important to pay attention to sealing joints. If the bath is installed in the center of the room, sealing the edges of baths issues do not arise. It is quite another when the bath is placed against a wall or walls. The small gap between the tank edge and wall can be sharply diluted paint over the cement, creating a triangular cross section layer. Following is paint over the front of the white paint. If you are simultaneously facing wall bathroom tile, a small horizontal slit missed probably pull the edges of the tiles. Under the large gap can be made from brick “foundation” or put on board a bath plastic plate or tube, over which is applied sealant layer. Perfectly suited for sealing cracks around baths and on the walls of polyurethane foam.

When you install a bathroom must be made to connect the bathroom to the system of equalization potentials. Turn on bath to the system equalization of electric potentials are best left to a specialized company, or the wizard. Connecting the copper wire with a cross section not less than 4 mm2, or a steel strip of thickness not less than 2 mm and a cross section not less than 24 mm2.

Remember that before using the bathroom in it poured 5-7 liters of cold water, then pour hot water.
