I am getting ready for the inspection of the DWV system I installed for a new bathroom. Our city (North Olmsted, Ohio) requires that the system hold 5 psi for 10 minutes. The system is PVC, with one rubber connection to the existing cast iron soil pipe. I will be using 1 1/2" and 3" Cherne expanding test plugs where I can, but I have to use an inflatable in the line to the toilet as the closet flange I installed did not come with a test cap.
Are there any tips for getting any of the test plugs to seal? Do I lubricate them in any way or just use them dry?
Thanks, Dennis
