I think you are asking how long PVC cement needs to cure (dry) before using. In a perfect world, probably 24 hours. That being said, I have turned off the pump, cut, glued, and had water running in under 5 minutes many times

Yes that what I ask for. I want to make sure when it ok (safe) to turn on water after you glued PVC cement pipe and let it cure. Thanks
