UPVC fittings for soil, waste and vent applications are not covered by this Standard.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This Standard specifies requirements for moulded or fabricated plastic waste fittings for use in plumbing installations. Such fittings are suitable for receiving short-duration, intermittent liquid discharges at temperatures not exceeding 95¦C.NOTE: Where it is envisaged that a plastic waste fitting will be used in an environment where temperatures in excess of 95¦C are common, advice should be sought from the manufacturer. UPVC fittings for soil, waste and vent applications are not covered by this Standard (see AS 1415).
