That idea seems amazing to me right now. Our main sewer drain, which is cast iron, is clogged right now. It comes back up and with it, earth. So I’m guessing it’s broken somewhere on the line. If what you say is feasible, I’d have a team phish it clean and then relined... yes ?
@@joea5183 That is what we had to do. Turns out, our sewer drain was made out of a material called "No Corrode"... a type of tarred carton they used to put in the sixties. They also used to fill everything back up with whatever was available... i.e. ROCKS. In our case, boulders would be more appropriate. So there were major slumps in the canal. That and the fact that our land became lieu to a tree plantation of some sorts after the fact. So roots also played a major factor. A WWI trench of 165 feet long was dug up. sometimes 12 feet deep (we live on a mountain side)... 38000$ later, it looks brand new. But the insurance only paid one third... so our travelling will have to wait a wee bit more... hoping p(l)andemic(?) 2 isn't as bad. Cheers...
@@theplumbersplumber I live in Rio de Janeiro. I have 2 bathrooms at home with a heater in each bathroom. At the time of construction of the house (1984) 1/2 "iron pipes were used in the hot water piping, as I think there was not yet a PVC pipe that withstands high temperature. Only in cold water was pipe used of PVC. Over time, the hot water iron pipes are rusting inside. At the edges I can get the rust out, but internally, no.
All my work is with drain pipes. Yours is water and if the pipe is that small then I do not think it is possible to clean the old pipe insides. My recommendation is to run new cpvc water pipes and if you have to cut the wall then there is not choice. Thanks for the comments.
Looks great.
what type of liner system do you use?
How do you wrap vents?
We usually clean them and then restore the pipe by installing a new liner to make them smooth as glass

Is there for 1/2" iron pipe? Do you sell to another country? Thanks.
What do you need? Please specify the situation and I will love to help advise.

@@theplumbersplumber The length of the pipe is not very large. Only about 2.5 m to the taps.
@@theplumbersplumber I'm trying to unblock it, because if I can't, the solution will be to break the wall, to change the iron pipes to PVC.
