Wavin Solvent Soil for Commercial Projects

Written by Wavin UK | Oct 16, 2024 12:53:28 PM

The Wavin Solvent Soil range is perfect for commercial construction projects with a unique keyway system to ensure the correct angle of fall removing guesswork, mitigating risk and ensuring compliance with building standards. The range includes pipes, fitting, traps, overflows and condensates suitable for a wide range of buildings including apartments, hotels, offices, hospitals, warehouses and retail developments.

Part H of the building regulations 


Section 1 of the Building Regulations – Drainage and waste disposal: Approved Document H referring to connections of branch discharge for sanitary pipework states that the gradient should be at least 18mm fall per metre. 


How does the Keyway system work?


Every keyway fitting has a unique notch and the corresponding boss has a locating key. When lined up, these lock together to guarantee the perfect angle of fall every time.

 
Does it work in a really tight space?


Sometimes you need something a bit different for a tight space. Wavin solvent soil short boss fitting could be just what you need! It is a little more compact than the standard fitting with a corresponding boss adaptor also available.
