Plumbing

[Medic755]

So I plumbed in my tank the other day. I used Oatey Purple primer and clear cement. It states that it is "recommended for non-pressure use". But states that it can withstand 180 PSI or greater. Should I just tear it all apart and do it over with weld-on or should I be ok? I tried talking to the people at ACE hardware before buying it and this is what I get for listening to them.

That is totally fine and basically what everyone else uses..
Tank plumbing is very low pressure..

There is very little pressure in our plumbing. Some of mine is just friction fit for ease of taking it apart.

I prefer the Oateys clear primer and clear cement so you can't see that run of purple down your nice white pipes.

Pretty much what everyone else said about the plumbing being very low pressure. 98% of my plumbing isn't even glued at all. It makes for a much easier removal if I have to move the tank or tear it down or sell it someday.

really no need for primer at all due to the low pressure..

Awesome, thanks everyone.
