In suburban areas, far away from the city limits, to be sewage.It can be created not only for domestic needs, but also to perform other functions.
Species sewage
Today there are several types of sewage:
- Stock;
- storm;
- drainage and so on.
also divided on drainage:
- inside;
- outside.
diameter sewer pipes and their choice depends precisely on these specifications.
Species pipes
In order to make the suburban section of the sewers, you must initially defined with a choice of pipes for her.There are several varieties of them:
- plastic;
- metal;
- ceramic;
- iron.
Each of these has its own specifications and properties.Also different and classifying them, methods of use.The diameter of the sewer pipes of all types also differ, but in some embodiments may be similar products.The surface they may also be different:
- smooth;
- corrugated.
characteristics of plastic pipes for sewerage
sewage plastic pipes made of different materials:
- PVC;
- polypropylene;
- polyethylene.
polyethylene pipes are made of materials with a fairly dense structure.They can be used for external and internal sewage systems.
advantages of plastic pipe
To date, this type of pipes for the construction of sewage is used most often.The popularity of such products is due not only low cost but also excellent properties and characteristics.
Plastic pipes:
- not corrode;
- strong;
- reliable;
- durable;
- wear;
- hardy;
- fireproof;
- easy to install.
main advantage of plastic pipes is that they do not rust and can not be exposed to weather and climatic conditions.They can withstand relatively heavy loads.For this reason, they can be mounted under the soil to a great depth.
In some cases, experts recommend the installation of plastic sewer pipes in the ground to use the technology gilzevaniya.It involves placing a pipe in the other, which is larger in its diameter.By the same token, you can perform any of the pipe and insulation.
Mount plastic pipes and fasten them together is quite simple.To do this, use the special equipment and fittings.It is also worth considering that the internal diameter PVC sewer pipes differs from the outside.For this reason fittings necessary to choose, based on the volume of the outer tube.
If plastic pipes deep into the ground, you should initially check them for leaks.
Long service life of these products is provided by a dense structure of plastic.Pipes do not burn and do not expose to high temperatures.Because of the cold, they will not be deformed, but the water in them may freeze.For this reason, it is worth considering over the insulation of sewer pipes that are located above the level of soil freezing.
diameter PVC sewer pipes is chosen on the basis of what type of sewerage system is being built on a suburban site.If it's just sinks, you can select a small.If it is a storm water drain, the pipe diameter must be large, not to delay the passage of water .
diameter plastic elements
sewer diameters of plastic pipes are quite diverse.Their choice depends on the type of sewage, which may be the outside and inside.
arrangement for domestic sewage using the pipe with a diameter between 32 and 110 mm.To apply the outer pipe diameter of 110 and 160 mm.
For external sewer is best suited plastic sewer pipe.110 - diameter, which will be the best option.
Features metal sewer pipes
arrangement for this type of sewage is not used often.This is due to the fact that the metal corrodes, particularly if it is in the ground.Also inside the tube will eventually be formed plaque, which reduces its inner diameter and thus hampers its permeability.
On the characteristics of metal pipes:
- strong;
- resistant to any stress.
At the same time they are well warmed up and freeze.
Ceramic sewage pipes arrangement
These pipes are mainly used for the construction of the outer sewage.The diameter of the sewer pipes of ceramics can be from 150 to 600 mm.
Product Features:
- resistance to groundwater;
- frost;
- fire;
- practicality;
- durability;
- strength;
- reliability.
Mounting principle and the bond between them is similar to the installation and connection of cast iron pipes.
Cast iron pipes
iron - a material that is used to make water and sewer pipes for many years.He had to prove itself in the production of this product as the most practical and reliable raw materials.Cast iron pipes can be used for any type of arrangement sanitation.This is their main advantage.
Specifications cast iron pipes
Although this type of production in the construction of sewage is not used too often, cast iron pipes have their own characteristics.These include:
- resistance to corrosion;
- fire;
- frost;
- wear;
- strength;
- duration of operation.
is also worth considering that the diameter of the cast-iron sewer pipe can be any.Use it for the construction of both internal and external drain.The service life of cast-iron pipe is at least 80 years.
Often vybirayuyut to drain sewage private home diameter cast-iron sewer pipe 150 or 200 mm.
Also known benefits, there is one drawback.The surface of these structures, both outside and inside the rough.Over time it can cause clogging sewage.
less popular in the arrangement of sewerage pipes
In addition to standard types, there are others who do not yet have such popularity in use, but also have good technical properties.
These include pipe:
- concrete:
- fiberglass;
- asbestos.
Concrete is most often used for arranging central sanitation.Although it is possible instances of their application on a suburban area in the central tube, which combines several waste.They are robust and reliable.Despite this, they are able to break down over time due to a damp environment.In addition, the concrete pipes have a large mass, which makes it difficult to install them by hand.
Reinforced concrete sewer pipe with a diameter of 100 mm for which weighs about 50-60 kg.For this reason, its mounting is done with special equipment.
Pipes made of fiberglass and are not very popular.They are not very strong, but it is not able to be exposed to moisture.They can also be used in the construction of internal and external sewerage systems, but do not immerse them in the ground.Their structure, though robust, but free to deform under heavy loads.The diameter of the sewer pipes of this type may be different, but the most demanded - 200 mm.
Asbestos cement pipes for sewerage and not used often.They are lighter than concrete.They have similar technical properties and characteristics.It is brittle pipes.Diameter of 100 mm have to be the smallest.The wall thickness of 2 to 3 cm. They are complicated to assemble.For works using special equipment.Although in some cases the installation of a sewer system from asbestos cement pipes is carried out independently.
