Q. Ngahamba ngayothenga ipayipi lokudonsa amanzi epulasitiki, futhi, ngemva kokubheka zonke izinhlobo, ikhanda lami laqala ukuba buhlungu.Nganquma ukushiya isitolo futhi ngenze ucwaningo.Nginamaphrojekthi amaningana engidinga ipayipi lepulasitiki.Ngidinga ukwengeza indlu yokugezela endaweni eyengeziwe yegumbi;Ngidinga ukushintsha imigqa yokukhipha amanzi yobumba endala, eqhekekile;futhi ngifuna ukufaka enye yemisele eqondile yesiFulentshi engiyibone kuwebhusayithi yakho ukuze ngimise igumbi lami elingaphansi.Ungakwazi ukunginika okokufundisa okusheshayo ngosayizi nezinhlobo zamapayipi epulasitiki umnikazi womuzi ojwayelekile angawasebenzisa eduze kwekhaya lakhe?– Lori M., Richmond, Virginia
A. Kulula kakhulu ukufakwa i-flummox, njengoba kunamapayipi amaningi epulasitiki.Esikhathini esingeside esidlule, ngifake ipayipi lepulasitiki elikhethekile ukuze ngikhiphe ubhayela omusha wendodakazi yami osebenza kahle kakhulu.Yenziwe nge-polypropylene futhi ingamelana namazinga okushisa aphakeme kakhulu kune-PVC evamile iningi lamaplumba angayisebenzisa.
Kubaluleke kakhulu ukuqaphela ukuthi maningi amapayipi epulasitiki ongawasebenzisa, futhi amakhemikhali awo ayinkimbinkimbi.Ngizonamathela nje kweziyisisekelo ongase ungene kuzo noma ongase udingeke ukuthi uzisebenzise abahloli basendaweni yangakini.
Amapayipi epulasitiki e-PVC kanye ne-ABS mhlawumbe yiwo ajwayeleke kakhulu ozohlangana nawo uma kukhulunywa ngamapayipi okukhipha amanzi.Imigqa yokuphakelwa kwamanzi ingelinye ibhola lengcina, futhi ngeke ngize ngizame ukukudida ngokuqhubekayo mayelana nalezo!
Ngisebenzise i-PVC amashumi eminyaka, futhi iyinto enhle kakhulu.Njengoba ungalindela, iza ngosayizi abahlukene.Osayizi abavame kakhulu ongayisebenzisa ekhaya lakho bangaba ngu-1.5-, 2-, 3- kanye no-4-intshi.Usayizi ongu-1.5-intshi usetshenziselwa ukuthwebula amanzi angase ageleze aphume kusinki wasekhishini, okuyize kwendlu yangasese noma kubhavu.Ipayipi elingu-2-intshi livame ukusetshenziselwa ukukhipha indawo yokugezela noma umshini wokuwasha, futhi lingasetshenziswa njengesitaki esime mpo sikasinki wasekhishini.
Ipayipi elingama-intshi angu-3 yilo elisetshenziswa ezindlini ukuze kufakwe amapayipi amathoyilethi.Ipayipi elingama-intshi angu-4 lisetshenziswa njengokukhipha amanzi ebhilidini ngaphansi kwaphansi noma ezindaweni zokukhasa ukuze kuthuthwe amanzi angcolile ukusuka ekhaya uwakhiphele ethangini le-septic noma indle.Ipayipi elingu-4-intshi lingase lisetshenziswe ekhaya uma lithwebula amagumbi okugeza amabili noma ngaphezulu.Amapayipi kanye nabahloli basebenzisa amatafula okulinganisa amapayipi ukuze babatshele ukuthi ipayipi losayizi lini okufanele lisetshenziswe lapho.
Ubukhulu bodonga lwamapayipi buhlukile, kanye nesakhiwo sangaphakathi se-PVC.Eminyakeni eminingi edlule, engingakusebenzisa nje kungaba ukuhlela ipayipi le-PVC lama-40 lamapayipi endlu.Manje usungathenga ishejuli yepayipi le-PVC engu-40 enobukhulu obufanayo ne-PVC evamile kodwa enesisindo esilula.Ibizwa nge-PVC yeselula.Idlula amakhodi amaningi futhi ingase ikusebenzele endlini yakho yokugezela yokwengeza igumbi elisha.Qiniseka ukuthi usula lokhu kuqala ngomhloli wasendaweni wakini wamapayipi.
Nikeza i-SDR-35 PVC ukubukeka kahle kwemigqa yokukhipha amanzi yangaphandle ofuna ukuyifaka.Kuyipayipi eliqinile, futhi izindonga eziseceleni zincane kune-schedule 40 pipe.Ngisebenzise ipayipi le-SDR-35 amashumi eminyaka ngempumelelo emangalisayo.Indlu yokugcina engayakhela umkhaya wami yayinepayipi elingaphezu kwamamitha angu-120 angu-6-intshi we-SDR-35 elalixhuma indlu yami nepayipi lendle ledolobha.
Ipayipi lepulasitiki elinesisindo esincane elinezimbobo kulo lizosebenza kahle kulowo msele waseFrance ogqitshiwe.Qiniseka ukuthi imigqa emibili yezimbobo ibheke phansi.Ungalenzi iphutha futhi uwakhombe phezulu esibhakabhakeni ngoba angase axhunywe ngamatshe amancane njengoba uvala ipayipi ngohlalwane oluwashiwe.
Q. Bengifake ama-valve amabhola amasha kubhayela wami ezinyangeni ezedlule.Ngangena ekamelweni ngolunye usuku ukuyohlola okuthile, futhi idamu laliphansi.Ngamangala.Ngenhlanhla, awubanga khona umonakalo.Ngabona amaconsi amanzi akheka esibanjeni sevalvu yebhola ngenhla nje kwedamu.Angazi ukuthi kungavuza kanjani lapho.Esikhundleni sokulinda osebenza ngamapayipi, ingabe le yinto engingazilungisa ngayo?Ngiyesaba ukudala ukuvuza okukhulu, ngakho ngitshele iqiniso.Kungcono ukuvele ushayele i-plumber?- UBrad G., e-Edison, eNew Jersey
A. Ngibe yingcweti yokufaka amapayipi kusukela ngineminyaka engu-29 futhi ngiyawuthanda umsebenzi wezandla.Bekuhlale kuyinjabulo ukwabelana ngolwazi lwami nabanikazi bezindlu abanelukuluku, futhi ngithanda kakhulu ukusiza abafundi bonge imali yocingo lwesevisi olulula.
Ama-valve ebhola, kanye namanye ama-valve, anezingxenye ezihambayo.Kudingeka zibe nesigxivizo eduze kwezingxenye ezihambayo ukuze amanzi angaphakathi kwevalvu angangeni ngaphandle endlini yakho.Ngokuhamba kweminyaka, zonke izinhlobo zezinto bezipakishwa kulesi sikhala esimpintshana kakhulu ukuze kuvinjwe amanzi ukuthi angavuzi.Yingakho izinto, sezizonke, ziye zabizwa ngokuthi ukupakisha.
Okufanele ukwenze ukususa nati le-hex elivikela isibambo se-valve yebhola ku-valve shaft.Uma wenza kanjalo, cishe uzothola elinye inadi elincane khona kanye emzimbeni wevalvu.
Leli nati lokupakisha.Sebenzisa isikrufu esilungisekayo futhi uthole ukubamba okuhle, okuqinile ebusweni obubili benathi.Yiphendule ngokwewashi inani elincane kakhulu ngenkathi ubhekene nayo.Kungase kudingeke ukuthi uyijike ngo-1/16 kuphela noma ngaphansi ukuze ukuconsa kume.Ungaqinisi kakhulu amantongomane okupakisha.
Ukuze uvimbele isikhukhula esiyingozi uma kukhona okungahambanga kahle ngenkathi ulungisa, qiniseka ukuthi uthola i-valve yakho enkulu yokuvala umugqa wamanzi.Qonda ukuthi isebenza kanjani futhi ube ne-wrench esandleni uma kufanele uyivale ngokuphazima kweso.
