7 Mistakes When Replacing Pipes in an Apartment

Costly Pipe Replacement Mistakes

1. Cheap materials — use trusted brands, PN25 for hot water.

2. Wrong diameter — keep or increase size.

3. No shutoff valves — install ball valves at every point.

4. Hidden connections — use access panels.

5. Wrong drain slope — 2 cm/m for 50mm, 1.5 cm/m for 110mm.

6. No expansion compensators — plastic expands when heated.

7. Unauthorized riser replacement — coordinate with building management.
