I’ve never had a problem with rain r shine pvc glue.
It’s all I have ever used for 8 years
@@keithvinson637 it's the best glue available
Only issue I’ve had with rain or shine is the jackasses who work for me didn’t put enough on the fitting. If you’re doing new construction and it drips on a fiberglass or acrylic tub, you might as well break out the checkbook
Prolly didn’t use primer or hold it down properly so it can bind
Bro . Rain or shine is the only stuff for pvc water service lines under ground. Been using it 20 yrs. Dug a water service today primed the 1" PVC sch 40 and rain or shine over lightly dried purple primer and the whole ditch filled up . Its curing under water. Gonna give it overnight. Says 2hrs cure time above 60deg.
Never had issues with rain or shine all depends on how it is applied just like any other glue if you don't put enough it won't work..
Keep more videos coming John I enjoy watching
I’ve never had a problem with it. That said I only use it when I have to like wet conditions.
That joint looks like it wasn’t cleaned properly or primed and didn’t look like enough glue.
Primer is code guys. I know a lot of people don’t bother but it is code. The joint also looks like the pipe was short and the installer stretched and left it under tension. Maybe the clear or heavy duty glue would have held up in this case but properly installed that glue would have held that joint just fine.
I just had that happen on one of my air handlers secondary drain line that has the SS2 float switch on it. The glue let out on the 90 as well, right where it drops down then straight out to the SS2. Property just turned 6 years old, so lasted half of the life span of the system you were working on. I like using the clear PVC cement. Keep the vids coming John 👍
Nothing wrong with the glue - works just fine on PVC Water, which is under pressure - Solvent Welding requires both Primer & Glue - Installer did not perform the task correctly... Only glue that does not require a Primer, is CPVC Glue, but I like to prime that too...
That’s your opinion. I have been using regular clear PVC glue for 20 years and never prime it and this does not happen. Rain or shine glue is junk bottom line.
@@johnisraelhvac2019 Brother, I always use purple primer and clear pvc glue. Make sure you apply all the way around the pipe. ✌
The reason that happens is because folks keep that blue glue can open and then go and use it weeks later. Shit is good for about a week after you open it
once it's opened, it doesn't last long and isn't really needed in non-pressurized gravity flow applications. it's great for pool, spa, septic/drainage and sprinkler work where you slam in a pump, repair fittings, have water running out the ends as it's connected and plug it back in a few minutes or less. pretty much a waste for HVAC repair work, it's fine if you're doing 1-1/4 to 2" pipe and multiple repairs a day or 50+ little condensate fittings!
pretty much buy a can and use it over a few days, if over four days or you left the lid loose more than 30 seconds a fitting? toss it daily or every other. that said always immediately screw the lid back tight and apply/assemble joints fast, it flash surface cures very fast depending on temperature and humidity. So if you work too slow it will peel off the pipe/fitting and just roll up into a bead making a bad joint(think of it like rim soldered or brazed joint with no flow into the socket!)
The can on the tumbnail reminds me of my old can of dehydrated water.
I use the Blue Hot Glue for condensate lines. I fixed a leaking line last week and it holds great.
Good find.
It doesn’t look like they put enough glue on that joint, I’ve never had a problem with it
Hot weld or something like that is what we stock. I glue inner coupling if nice clean and dry. But to be sure when in hot attics I make sure to get all on nipple and inside coupling
Rain or shine glue is just fine. That must've been the bottom of the can. Not enough glue on that joint
It probably wasn’t primed..and most tinners can’t run pvc worth a sh^t anyways
I've been working at apartments and finding old bryant air handlers with capillary coils all r 22. Can r 410 be used in these systems if I change out condensers.
Yes, Coil must match the condenser size and replace the sensing bulb as well . . Flush the line sets with r-11 flush kit .
It doesn’t matter if it’s pressure or non pressure pipe….always prime and glue each joint.
Oh my goodness sir yes sir
I have found that this glue will actually clog the drain line if excessive amount of glue is applied to the fittings.
It will create a thin film blockage similar to the way the soap bubbles you got as a kid and you dipped the piece in the bottle and then blow bubbles. The glue will block the drain the same way the soap clings to the round part you blow through.
I prefer the clear pvc with cleaner. ( I ALWAYS use the cleaner even on non pressurized drain lines ) just wear gloves because the cleaner sucks to get off your hand and will not come out of your clothes.
Very true
Maybe the installer only glued one side of the pvc?
Looks like they just glued the pipe and stuck it. Proper preparation and application is important. I haven't had a problem with any of the cements on the market this far.
I've used it on irrigation lines under constant pressure. I like red hot blue glue better
Have you ever read instructions for that guy?? It says to used primer i bet you and everyone else in resi never do so why blame glue for not working properly when not used properly?
Jurzy likes the purple primer🤔
Stay safe.
Retired(werk'n) keyboard super tech.
Wear your safety glasses.
purple colorant is a tell-tale deice so lazy inspectors and zoning don't have to do their real inspection jobs.
no worries, it's all coming to a focus and fast as nothing lasts and all materials are junk. if the idiots keep it going for much longer, we'll be in the stone age again LOL
All adhesives will have a work and shelve life . It’s very important to discard any old glue . Rule of thumb is less then a year . The chemical’s Composition-themselves will bring down over time . There’s are a lot of factors of why this happens . Temperature , sun light and just environmental conditions will cause this .It’s always important to read the instructions and having a clean surface when applying adhesive with the correct promoter aka primer .
I think goodman makes that glue
What up Mr. Sean? Goodman must of made that glue, it came with my Goodman's at my property 🤣
@@ApartmentMaintenance whats up Mr. Rich!! Whats been going on man? And yea they sure did make that glue hahaha
Badman
Holy cow, glue on a wet pipe. Do you tie your horse to the fence. Cowboy.
you have never done sprinkler and septic/drain repair I take it? multiple workers, wipe(but-mud/chemicals), apply cleaner and glue FAST, slam together as chemical laden poo water floods the joint whilst you connect it. trick is get the joint dry enough to clean and glue coat both halves! then as the contaminate hits it flash surface cures and gets displaced and cleansed by the uncured layers in pipe/fitting. speed assembly of the work is key!
I never had a problem, it's the clear that sucks.
Hey man I've been on board with you for 5 years or so but I have to say the blue stuff works fine when properly used. You using the clear on the wet and dirty joint with no primer is not much better.
That’s your opinion. And you don’t need primer it’s not a water line with pressure. And it sure is holding so again that’s your opinion. This is not the first time I’ve seen this!!
I use clear primer and clear glue on everything. Been in the trades for 20 years and haven’t had any problems this far. I have also had good luck using Christie’s on drain lines but have found that it doesn’t last on PVC Flue pipes. The clear primer and the clear glue have yet to fail me on Flue pipes. Great video John! Thanks again for all your efforts in putting them out!
Hmmmmm i not sure but that jack lol
U barley used any glue to fix it
Sorry to disagree, i have use that kind of glue in HVAC and plumbing and i have to tell you , it does depend on who does the job, clean prime and so on, just like a a unit, can be the beat but a crappie tech install it, it wont last, and can be the a low coat brand but installed professional and will outlast .
Sorry don't agree - obviously wasn't primed - you gotta messy with this stuff.
