Condense pipe entering soil pipe on crown

Is there a strap on boss fitted, where the condensate pipe enters the soil pipe?

May be difficult to put a strap on boss, but these are just as good (19mm ones).

 

I am not sure if this is allowed (although the rest of the install looks pretty neat to me) UP to be honest.

 

I can see a magnaclean filter fitted, but not sure if its fitted right and at the right point in the system without knowing the pipes, it should be fitted on the return side of the CH pipework.

If its a combi boiler, which it looks like - there should be a PRV (pressure relief valve), this is a 15mm pipe the exits out the building and is turned into the brickwork or external drain.

 

Cowboy job, that's just a hole drilled into the soil pipe and the condensate pipe stuck into it. It has no seal should the soile pipe back up. You need a strap on boss to comply to manufacturers instructions.

 

Looks like one of these "Will it work ok?" Almost certainly 'yes'. "Does it comply?" Probably not.

 

Thank you.

And does it comply?

 

No!

 

Stick some silicon sealant round it, before finishing the boxing in.

 

Is that why you had a toy horse JJ.(cowboy).

 

I saw a simular arrangement wedged into a rain water downpipe a while back. Not as neat as this one though

 

Yep,, yeeha.

 

Akshully, you could run a smear of pipe solvent around that join - both plastic pipes should be up for that?

 

Still won't give a guarenteed seal should the soil back up.

 

Poor practice - how do you know how far its gone in. It could be most of the way through the soil pipe so a blockage is imminent. Simple job to solve, get 'em back if its been recently installed.
