Soil and Underground Drainage Systems

Soil Pipe System

Our comprehensive range of soil and underground drainage systems comes in various profiles, fittings, and colours, including black, olive grey, light grey, and white. These pipes, manufactured from high-gloss PVC-u, offer multiple advantages: they are lightweight, durable, easy to install, and low maintenance. In addition, all our soil pipe systems are compatible with most UK systems and meet British Standard EN1329-1:2000. With these quality standards, you can confidently choose our products, knowing you’re purchasing from a reputable supplier.

Underground Drainage System

Similar to our soil pipe systems, DAVANT’s underground drainage systems also come in different profiles and fittings. They are designed to be lightweight, durable, and impact-resistant, making them easy to install. Furthermore, these drainage systems comply with British Standard EN1401-1:2009, ensuring reliability and performance.

TYPE

Underground Drainage Pipes and Fittings:

  • Material: Made from PVC, these pipes are corrosion-resistant and built to handle large water volumes.
  • Design: These pipes are slightly flexible, allowing them to withstand earth movements. Common residential sizes range from 110mm to 160mm in diameter.
  • Fittings: We offer bends, junctions, reducers, and connectors to handle directional changes and branch-offs. Rubber rings seal joints to prevent leaks.
  • Colour: Typically available in terracotta or black, these colors help distinguish them from above-ground pipes.
  • Applications: These systems efficiently carry waste and rainwater from buildings to sewers or septic systems.

Overground Drainage Pipes and Fittings:

  • Material: Manufactured from materials like PVC, these pipes are sturdy and resistant to damage.
  • Design: Overground pipes are more rigid compared to underground ones. Depending on the application, their diameters can vary from smaller residential to larger commercial sizes.
  • Fittings: These include elbows, T-joints, couplings, and brackets for mounting to walls or ceilings. They use screw fittings or push-fit designs for quick and easy installation.
  • Colour: Available in white, black, or light grey, these pipes are easily distinguishable from underground systems.
  • Applications: Used to carry wastewater from fixtures like sinks, toilets, and showers to underground drainage systems.

These are used in soil and waste systems, where the pipes are joined using a solvent weld process. The weld creates a strong, permanent bond, making the system leak-proof and durable. Ideal for high-pressure applications or where a secure joint is crucial.

This system utilises a ring seal (or rubber ring) for joining pipes and fittings. It’s designed for ease of installation and flexibility. The ring seal provides a watertight connection, allowing for slight movements without risking leaks. Suitable for soil and waste drainage applications.

Medium-Density Polyethylene (MDPE) coils and fittings are used primarily for water supply. MDPE is known for its toughness and flexibility, making it ideal for water pipes. These coils are often used in long lengths to reduce the need for joints, and the fittings ensure secure and leak-free connections.
