Re: How to replace PVC elbow 30cm

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @Ravikiran. It's sensational to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about repairing a pipe.

To replace the PVC elbow, you'll need to measure both the horizontal and vertical pipes to confirm their sizes. If both are 90mm, you’ll need a 90mm female elbow. If they’re 100mm, you’ll need a 100mm female elbow. Sometimes elbows also include a reducer, so it could be a 90mm-to-100mm transition fitting. Once you’ve measured the pipes, we can help identify the exact fitting you’ll need.

 

Please note that this kind of repair involves plumbing and drainage work, which must be carried out by a licensed plumber.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi @Ravikiran,

 

Thanks for that. Would you please also be able to measure the diameter of the pipes that enter the elbow as well?
