Installing condense pipe when soil stack is cast iron

[FoRiS HeAtInG]

Just wanted to know if it is possible to install a condense pipe running to the drain if soil stack is cast iron

thanks

You might have to fit a neutraliser before it gets to the soil stack. Sure someone else can clarify.

There's aTB about it on the GS site. You can go into CI as long as you are below the highest inlet.

Is it not possible to run it to a drain or soak away? If drilling the CI is the only option what boss connection do I use?

Thanks, also could you PM me the TB number please

Decent hole saw will do it (HSS). Plenty of lube to keep it cool.

Page 57 & do it slowly, I think from memory paraffin was the lube of choice but not sure you can even buy it any more.
If it is an old bit of cast you just have to pray you don't hit a bit of siliceous otherwise you could be there for sometime & get through a few drills.

You could cut a boss pipe in, expensive but if you have the room easer.

Can you imagine health and safety turning up at that moment. They'd go into meltdown!
