Hi all. I’m not G3 qualified but I’m sure I heard that the waste pipe should be push fit plastic rather than solvent due to temperature? Is this correct? Most cylinder installs I see the discharge is in solvent. Cheers
 
Correct can’t be solvent unless it’s mupvc (double the thickness of normal pvc / abs solvent ish)
 
Tons done in solvent , push-fit, apart from temp also has some “ give “ allowing for some expansion in the joint to save stressing the pipe .
