Hello hello,, Hoping there are some experts or experienced Bulgarian plumbing chaps in this site ?. Here in the UK I can fit a bathroom just with the experience I have picked up over a lifetime. I can make copper pipe runs isolaters taps sink shower etc but me and the missus have bought a small place in Bulgaria. There is no inside toilet but the agency we used are fitting a toilet and drain pipe to the outside and a new waste water tank. When we go out there I need to fit a shower sink etc and I have not got a clue about BG plumbing . I've seen they use 25mm? Plastic pipe and they use a heat iron to make male female ends and I think they push them together while still hot and form a water tight joint. Thats all I know.
Questions,,
What is the width of a shower waste pipe ?
Whay is the width of a sink waste pipe ?
How do they convert plastic pipes onto metal braided hoses ?
Can we bring a shower enclosure from the UK and find a waste fitting that will fit our shower base hole ?
The drain pipe down to the waste tank will run along the side of the house so when I knock a hole through for the new shower sink etc how do you connect a smaller shower drain pipe into the new large drain pipe that the BG agency is installing ?
I'm not a trained plumber ( obviously lol ) but I,m a quick learner ,, Hope my questions make sense and we thank anyone that can help us get started, cheers George & Debbie Scotland.

Same stuff as aquatherm in the uk fusion welded

I believe all there waste is pushfit so easy enough to run as for sizes should be easy to tell by what’s available etc

Yes I bet there’s a valve adapter

Male irons or valves probably

I wouldn’t best to buy all the kit over there

Ask them to install a point for you for the toilet and one for the shower and basin
 
I think there are a few ex pats in bulgaria on the forum. Have you spoken to any?
