IHMANKY said: (quoted from post at 22:55:24 04/04/10) Frost-free hydrant by farrowing house has cracked, and we've spent countless hours prodding around, searching with a metal detector, and reminiscing about where this old water line ran exactly, but still no luck. It's deep enough under the lane that we don't care to dig, because the shutoff is somewhere between there and about 40 yards up, and if we try it with a trackhoe, we'll cause more problems than we got. Simple thing is, if we can break the line just before the hydrant, and glue on another valve in between the line and hydrant. My question is, is there a pipe glue for pvc that will adhere when applied wet? The line is gravity fed, around a 30 foot drop so talking 15 psi or less. If we could "wet glue" the line side, we could always close the valve and dry glue the hydrant side. Anyone glued wet pipe with any success before, and if so, what's the product?
Just use a screw type compression fitting & be done with it.
