Looking for a tight 90 degree internal soil bend !

Damn my search engine settings! Ask Jeeves had just replaced Google on my laptop and when I search Multiquick all I get is the Braun Multiquick hand blender.

the coller is for fitting two pan connectors together but thinking about it, you'll be better using two of these in the 2ft horizonal run tilted to the side.

Ok, now I'm totally confused ! If the centre line height of the soil pipe at the wall is 18mm and the centre line height of the WC pan spigot (two feet away) is also 18mm, how will using two 45 degree single sockets give any additional fall, no matter how they're positioned ?

I can understand that by using an offset pan connector in its lowest position (at the pan) will give some fall along the two feet back to the wall but not the two 45 degree single socket bends.

Thanks again.

Every situation is a bit different, I had a similar one the other week and I used the 45's and rotated them away from the wall to suit. I just get my stock of soil fittings and pan connectors together and cobble something together.

I'm not a plumber but saw a flexible pipe in a friend's house for the first time ever last week.

It was a fairly tight horizontal S bend in exactly the situation described eg move pan about 2 foot to the side.

But I noticed it sagged a bit, and what with the concertinas it looked to me like it could easlily get blocked.

I would be interested in the pros and cons of flexi soil pipes.

How about using a flexi?
The rubber male end will push into a 4 inch soil pipe nicely.

PLEASE DON'T

I have been to loads of houses with flexis that have split, hate them with a passion.
Don't do it.

I always get too many fittings and try a few different ideas, expensive, but I know it wont ever leak, happy days

Also the flexi's always do block because of all the ridges once you manipulate them to the shape you want

Pro's they get you home for your tea on time

Cons while you're eating that tea, you get the call to say its blocked/slipped off/ rat chewed through/sagged etc.

I have a couple in the van but only use them if I absolutly have to.
