    Default Re: pump piping

    From the pics it seems the swept 90's are for drain & waste, not the pressure rated 90's I see on the heater. The pressure fittings have about a 1.25" deep glued mate. Should also be able to use a regular sched-40 pipe adapter into the pump. As for the glue, regular green can cement and purple primer. I'd also let the joints cure for an hour or so before putting them under pressure. The pipes seem attached but the glue is still soft.
