Hello,
I have an existing branch drain for RV dump, under a cement slab in a carport. I want to move the RV dump to the upper part of the lot, about 35 feet away, and about 5 feet higher in elevation. My local code says anything outside needs to use gasketed SDR35. I'm fine with the main portions of that job.
I'm looking for the best way to tie into the existing schedule 40. I have cut the concrete around the existing 90 for the RV dump. I can cut it out, but I'd like to have it become a cleanout. My problem is the top of horizontal pipe is into the bottom of slab, which is 3 inches, if I'm lucky. I'm thinking the only way for a cleanout is to install a Wye or some type of combo with a sweep. It seems like both of these options will result in something much higher than top of slab. Any suggestions? I'm thinking of just moving the cleanout spot upstream to a place where I have enough room.
Second, what is the best way to transition from the SDR35 to Sch. 40? I'll need to cut the spigot end of the final pipe to the correct length first, then join it to the Sch. 40 how? I want to make sure I don't have any mismatched inside diameters that could cause a backup and clog.
Finally, what's the best way to create a chamfer on the cut end of the SDR35?
Anything else that comes to mind, would be appreciated.
