Anyone know how well this works with PVC pipe? I don't think it should be an issue but just thought if anyone had any issues

Not sure about PVC pipe but like you said, should work fine.I just installed this last weekend and it works great. Installed in basement on water heater so in case it springs a leak, the main water supply will shut off.

I've used the Floodstop products for self, family and friends on all types of approved water supply lines including PVC without any issues. Other Floodstop products are used for washing machines (Highly recommended) , ice makers and can be adapted to virtually any device that uses a water supply line, such as a whole house water filtration system. (No, I do not work for Floodstop) On a maintenance note, I recommend a manual check of the valve operation and backup battery voltage at least twice a year. I've had valves fail, particularly on hot water heaters. Could be heat, contamination or some other problem. This usually occurs after many years of use.

This hose is very flexible.. I think that pvc connections would work..You might need large clamps or wire ties to secure in place.

With it's mondular design you can expect it to be a little wobbly the one I have installed in my house was and works fine, it did get rigid because I mounted it on a stud :). No issues though and I like being able to expand it if needed. Only issue I had was that the valves would cut a small pice of plastic first time I used them, make sure you don't get pices of plastic stuck in your pipes and good luck with your installation!

I made my own "Frame" with PVC 1/2 inch pipe..Spent a few $$$ but...OMG does it work great....

I don't know if it would work on something that is as flexible as the Pocket hose. I have only used it on pvc pipes that do not move. It's worth a try, I think. A friend of mine has had the same problem as you are having with the Pocket hose...with three hoses! But she didn't want to try the Sealer. Sorry I could not be of more help to you.

Will work fine in the 4" PVC pipe, You might look on Youtube under Larry Hall or Rain Gutter Grow System, There is a bunch of videos on usingplastic rain gutters and the PVC pipe foe self watering planters. Good luck

I wouldnt use it on pvc as the amount of heat would melt the pipe. I assume you coukd keep it far away to keep the full force of the heat away from it but i wouldnt use it for that.

I had a support pole from another cover which I did not like so I used PVC pipe and built my own. It was easy and turned out to be very stable, stayed in place and supports the cover. If you would like more information about the design I would be happy to share information with you.

I used the same size (1/2) for a pvc 1/2 with some couplers and works ok. Read a little more. I think ABS pipe is not for water feeding.

I used 3/4" pvc pipe, very good, powerful pumping as long as installing according to instructions provided.no problem at all.

I had a contractor help me with this - but I think you need to disconnect both ends from power and then connect one end to the tool so you can use the dongle end to follow the wire inside the PVC pipe. This is tough to use - and a little hit or miss - but we did not find anything better to use and it helped us a lot. Good luck.

It will pretty much work with your standard PVC pipe. I think I had a 2 inch pipe. But I also bought the Glide Gear 12ft Video Camera Dolly Aluminum Track with Carry Bag. After the research and good reviews I went for it. I love it, it's light, looks professional, simple to assemble & it works. On my page I have a country music video I directed using this dolly set up. Kaijee.wix.com/filmerica

I have never tried mine on a pvc pipe or fitting. I would not buy one just for this unless the pipe is almost impossible to replace. I have used mine to repair plastic parts that are expensive to replace or no longer made. The welder is great for the jobs I have used it for but I have not used it to repair a pipe that would be subject to water or air pressure.

Yes , it could be used on PVC pipe, it doesn't get hot enough to damage PVC pipe.

Yes. I used it in buried PVC pipes. It is supposed to be capable of direct burial but I wanted it protected.

Yes I have used this in the manner you described. However, the connector between the 2 sections are badly mad, requiring you to constantly re-tightening the coupling. I have found that a home-made contraption made with PVC pipes purchased at Home Depot works just as well, for less than $20. Hope this helps.
