We have devised a unique system for repairing CPVC pipe without cutting out the damaged portion for repair. Here’s how you can repair punctured and damaged pipe caused by drilling/chiseling :
– Start by removing the cement plaster and using the pipe repair piece supplied by the company.
– Thoroughly clean the damaged area of the pipe and make it dry.
– Apply solvent cement on the surface of the pipe at the damaged portion around the entire circumference.
– Apply solvent cement on the inner surface of the pipe and weld it together on the damaged area.
– Tie a small piece of string/binding wire around the repair piece and pipe till the solvent sets in and solidifies.
– Conduct a pressure test before replastering.
