As a plumber with 35 years experience I would strongly advise against this sort of fixing. Not only does it look very rough it also weakens the wall of the pipe. Do it right and use the cheap elbow fittings. It will save you time in the long run.
It is not practical. It consumes time, which costs more than the materials. Also, it is too risky to cause leakage.
Quality + manpower time vs little save in materials. Not worth it .. dump idea
Harry Potter will be like : pipe KAZAM BE WHOLE AGAIN !!!! AND Woosh taa daaa. 😜
Agree 100 percent. But this is just youtube videos for Harry homeowner to collect views.
I agree 100 % been doing pipe for 25 + years I work for a company that builds water treatment plants here in the western USA and I would never get away with anything like this but when a bucket of SS flange bolts cost about $5000 obviously a couple dollars for fittings is nothing
We do this with PC water-cooling. It works well there. Can't say anything about plumbing
This is a video of exactly what NOT to do. Thank you for sharing!
🤣
Well maybe in desperation and possibly temporarily. We tend to think in terms of being able to afford everything and have easy access to supplies but this is an Asian country where that is not so easy, and if for example you were out in the countryside.
@@kw57rx8dr.9 If he had access to the pipe out in the countryside, he has access to proper fittings...don't be silly and risk a flood.
@@thechallengedwoodworker5283 You are making pretty big ASSumptions, sometimes people have pipe but not fittings that may be god only knows how many miles away and need to a get job done. Those fittings are incredibly loose as well. It's not necessarily silly... I've lived in Asia and one of the things I could appreciate is the creative ingenuity that the Asians have about a lot of things we take for granted going to the store to buy, which brings up another obstacle is actually having CASH to buy fittings with.
@@kw57rx8dr.9 How about we not start off by calling me an ASS in your own half witted way. Have a little respect...Don't get your feelings hurt because I'm stating facts. Heating up ANY material compromises its structural integrity...especially PLASTIC! Don't believe me then look it up yourself. Those elbows are loose because the dude has the WRONG SIZE fittings...But you knew that right? He's is attempting to validate a wrong and dangerous method for others to try and end up with a flood. I'm sure you would feel safe and accomplished if you piped your home this way. Better off using a garden hose for this job....oh wait let me guess...he doesn't have that either...hmmmmmmm.
Normally this method is for electrical wire conduits, not for thick pvc water pipes.
Akon
It's not going to be easy pulling wire through kinked pipes.
@@donaldbundy3499 You don't get the kinks if you heat the outside of the bend. It'll still be weak but at least it won't be kinked.
That’s job security right there. He will definitely get a repair call in the future
Well, you'd have to fly him in from India. As a tech guy, I can say that this is a perfect metaphor of outsourcing to the highest standard I typically see.
For sure
@@Ariesdrone603Sorry this made you troubled please reboot.
Jason, actually, that is a very VERY poor idea!
There are several problems with this idea that many if not most people do not realize.
First, heating and bending the plastic pipe WEAKENS the walls of the pipe.
This will cause premature failures in the future.
Secondly, those kinks at the bends will cause vortexes in the water flow as well and inhibit good flow.
Elbows are not expensive at all.
If you have to spend $4 to $8 to do it right, why not do it right to begin with>
Also, this video is totally moot! Why would anyone put a pipe across the floor, only to dip it down into a trench like that.
Either the pipe is below the floor or it's not. Just follow the contour.
In other words, Jason, this is a bad BAD idea!
That being said, if using copper tubing (on the roll) and using a proper mechanical bender tool, then this can be done without heat and without crimps.
That's exactly what I need: four tools (pipe bender, heat gun, lighter, hacksaw), risk burning or melting the pipe, scorching my hands while bending the hot pipe, more stress on my hands joints, risk cracking the pipe and of course, getting the wrong measurements since you can only do this by the seat of your pants. Thanks for the advice, I will use this method when my life needs more stress and anger.
Lol it's more expensive then the 90's
😂
April fools,,,what a joke
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Well said 😂
First job using elbow was better than your job.
thank you for visiting and commenting
More elbow is more prone on leak
Sure is better, like this pipe is broken ,outer side wool is tiner ,inside looks like crap, cros section is non circle anymore cosing turbulention and flow restriction, elbow job is 100 times better than this.
@@jhomclixtv5445 use solvent
U cant replace elbow and Tee this method will weaken your pipe quality which may effect in future and there is no need do such kind of hard work... I thought this is waste of time.... By using solvent in Tee and elbow... The problem of leakage can be... Treated...
Plumbers do not use this method because they want to finish their job easier
thanks for the information. thank you for visiting too. pleased to meet you😊
Fixing one problem with another.
I know nothing about plumbing, but I can tell that the first setup is 4x quicker and simpler 😂
More time, more tools, more hassle 👌
terimakash atas sarannya 😊
Yea it would take less time than thjis sped up video to complete with the original components and WAY more strength.
Ah yes, weakening the walls of the pipe so it will burst and you will need to buy everything again and redo it using elbows anyway.
Great trick if you have a lot of free time, the pipe bursting is not a problem, and you have money to spare!
Entertainment purposes only not the real world.
Thank you for your visit and comments 😊
If your at home repair. Have time and dont want to speend money. Yes this is good. But if you are a repairmen to do a job. Not recommended
This video makes perfect sense if played backwards. Just change the red X’s to green check marks ✅
You're still using 90° bends which reduces water flow and pressure as well. Plus you're weakening the pipe.
The time it takes to do this using elbows I be done and still watching this guy on UA-cam finally finished
Yeah but you had to pay $2.75 for 4 elbows! 🤣
As a plumber the reason this is not used is due to manufacturers installation instructions. This is not an approved repair. Also the bends are not smooth and would cause water turbulence in the pipe. The 90s are approved and far simpler for installation.
Wow, I can see this passing an inspection :)
bending pipes work on electrical application because the pipes act as an insulation for wires, it isn't in constant pressure. Water lines however always has pressure in them that's why the pipes and connection should be strong that's why the pipes used for water lines are thicker than those used for electrical purposes.
Show me the data that says it can't hold the water pressure anymore ?
That type of bending will not work in any electrical applications.
But these are not plumbing pipes. These are electrical PVC pipes. Please use a real plumbing pipe to demonstrate this.
Awesome please make more videos on what to do "or" "WHAT NOT TO DO"!!!
It's nice to use lateral thinking to solve a problem, and good job on that first bend, but if I had that installed on my property, I would be furious. Putting aside the valid concerns everyone has stated about thermal treatment like that weakening the mechanical properties of the pipe, those kinks would guarantee they will be the point of failure. Were I to see that on a job I was supervising, I would get a doublejack and mangle those pipes an obscene distance back and say "fix it." That was how l was taught to show that shortcuts are a bad idea. It's cruel and mean spirited, but it works. You get paid to do it right, and you get paid to correct yourself once. After that, you can go kick road apples.
expendido sua resposta! 👋👋👋👋👋
Cool idea for a LOW pressure drain line but a wrinkle in the pipe would prevent flow. Doing the same with PVC conduit works well though.
More power to you for not disabling comments.
It’s worth the extra cost to do it right one time rather than have to come back and fix this leaking mess later.
But that's almost a dollar in extra cost.
I think I’ll stay with the elbows. Quicker and more reliable, professional too! 🤪
GOOD JOB & GOOD LUCK !
Thank you ☺️
We are three of the best plumbers that ever plumbed a plum
Good lesson on how to vet your plumber...check the tool box for a spring, hack saw, and bic lighter.
Hemat dari hongkong, heater sama bending nya aja perlu biaya, mending beli elbow empat biji cuma 12k perak 😁
we can use the sand which is no charge. thanks for commenting ☺️
That is the WORST thing I have ever seen, NO respectable plumber would do this.
Ich bin eigentlich ein friedliebender Mensch, aber manche Leute wecken ein tiefsitzendes Bedürfniss ihnen einfach Schmerzen zufügen zu wollen... 🤗
Good idia😊
Just use the elbows you had in 1st place dude. Pipe bender spring has its place but not for here. If in an emergency scenario where its maybe late , shops are closed and you have power, heatgun, lighter and spring and need water then your method is a tempory fix oh and if one has extra lenght pvc pipe. Otheriwse use elbows
he bought a cheap pipe and cheap fittings. his labor must be cheaper that's why he's using cheap tricks that's not as effective as the conventional way. kinda makes you wonder if he really is a professional plumber
It is good that you have problem solving skills. However, heating and bending can seriously weaken material’s mechanical properties. You might mitigate this by inserting a larger thickness pipe for bending just to compensate the weakness generated by heating and bending. But then higher costs must be considered due to the increase in thickness. I’m sure you can figure out the optimum point.
Thank you for your input. maybe this should be considered. thank you for watching and commenting nice to meet you
Show me the data that says it can't hold the water pressure anymore ? Show me or ur full of it
@@jckdnls9292 you are definitely not an engineer nor a related expert. I never said it won’t handle water pressure btw.
@Jck Dnls what he was saying is that the pipe structural rating for the amount of pressure the pipe can hold is now undetermined due to heat stress and stretching of the material. All the pipes rating are now void. The pipe may or may not fail, but that is the risk you would take.

I cant wait to show the inspector my new trick
This will eventually be a plumbing standard for all fields. Flow, parts cost, labor intensive. Only concern is compromising the thickness of the sidewall, which can be solved by creating specific PVC / PEX piping designed to handle the task along side a new solvent tasked with reenforing and bonding the sidewall to compensate the loss of thickeness.
A ideia é boa mas a perda de tempo que tem a força que coloca mas antes do primeiro jeito o mais rápido e prático
thank you for the advice, thank you for visiting and commenting 😊
This is not possible in cpvc pipes as it will break into pieces while bending. this can be done in case of electrical conduits (LMS or MMS ) conduits
Good demostration
Exactly what you propose is what should not be done... USING WELL SEALED ELBOWS IS THE CORRECT THING. That arrangement has more risk of chipping the pipe. If it's for watering plants, ok,... but NEVER FOR A HOME.
I would fire anyone on my crew that would do this.
I'd hope your crew wouldn't use PVC this thin lol
What a waste of time. First job was way better. You have too much time on your hands.
Thank you for your visit and comments 😊
This is awesome if you're stuck on an island with no elbow fittings!
I would not consider doing this if the tubing was going to have pressure in it, this would only be good for drainage.
who are not plumber but watching this video😅?
While it’s ok to insert the tube to the bend at the side where water comes, at the other side, the bend should be inserted into the main pipe, to avoid leaks on both the ends.
Thank you for the advice.
Thank you also for visiting and commenting, nice to meet you 😊
Id be on my 3rd beer by now if I used elbows. Also why go from heat gun to lighter.
this fix is for low to no pressure drain applications and nothing more.
Без синей изоленты не зачет! )
blue duct tape can help. will try thanks for the advice. pleased to meet you 😊
Esta operación está mal, totalmente mal ya que a travez del tiempo se presipitaran los sedimentos del fluido y provocará un tapón en la línea.
Thank you for your visit and comments 😊
and thanks for the information
Nice brother...
Wow 😲 nice👍👍. Bahut sare plumbers ko to ye sab pata hi nhi hota
thank you for visiting, greetings friends 😊
Congrats
For better results pipe fill up with sand or mud powder.
Hole dia remain same after heat and bend.
Before final fitting remove sand
thank you for the advice, thank you for visiting and commenting 😊
using the elbow would have save a lot of time.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I suspect the hourly rate of a plumber would cost more than the proper fittings. Buy the fittings.
Cracking bodge job. Well done
Hilarious. I think I'll go with the safer and far easier method in using the 90s. 😆
This why we need downvotes back.
In this idea water loss will occur due to improper bend.
registered, Thanks you
Thank you for visiting and commenting, nice to meet you 😊
With the money he saves, he can buy himself a real torch, a good pipe cutter, a pipe bending tool and some pressure rated PVC.
Tubing he's using is called PEX pipe, which is a flexible water pipe! 🤫
OMGTHISISIDIOTIC
If there was an issue, you could easily get some soft 90s. I don't know if they sell soft 90s in the plumbing section, but if you're working with pvc, depending on what you're working on, you can use electrical PVC soft 90's.
Pinapangit mulang tuloy ang gawa mo
They now make flexible pvc pipe in 1 to 3 foot sections and you can still cut those to the size yiu need
Yeah I don't want him at my house for sure
Great 👍
This is a cool trick but just a trick. The outside wall thickness has been reduced a lot
If the pipes already above-ground why not just keep going straight across? What is the purpose adding four 90° couplers to a pipe that could be perfectly straight? Ooh I get it, he wants to increase back pressure to increase the amperage so it cost more to run the pump and overtime will shorten the life of the motor. Oh I get it it's job security so the customer will call him back out to fix the ruptured pipe. That makes sense 😂
Bob asking his buddy where is my cig lighter? Hang on I'm fixing some plumbing.🙄🤣🤣
As a plumber. I rate this one as 1/10 that should use.
Better off using all the elbows you had at the start and gluing them in. Would be quicker by far and stronger and a leak risk of zero
In Ireland the old inch and a quarter waste pipes were done this way. It is no longer used. The spring would have been heated before inserting into the pipe, that would help prevent the kinks. Using elbows would have been quicker.
NAUGHTY
I knew the comments wouldn't disappoint :)
La peor chapuza que he visto en mi vida laboral ( 40 años+ ) ! Gracias a gente como tu - los profesionales siempre tendremos trabajo.
OK for electrical conduit, sometimes. I would not ever do this for water. Also not bending the elbows properly. You have to roll it to avoid kinks.
The connecting quality is so good and leaking will indeed happen. The connecting length should be longer and you'd better buy an expander ! besides you need pipe glue!
I did that a few times if a 45 or 90° angle doesn't fit, no problems, but without the spring though, but for everything else I use elbows, it's much quicker and easier
I'll stick with the elbows thank you very much.
Sana bumili ka nlng ng bypass bend nyehehe
Work 30 minutes to save $2 in coupling ......... Wow
West of time to all
Thank you for visiting and commenting, nice to meet you 😊
This made my day. Good for a laugh. Definitely not how I would fix it. The four elbows are better, but installed in a horizontal fashion.
Kkkk me diz qual a diferença de colocar os cotovelos e dobrar os canos mais seguro os cotovelos e sem perder tempo
Some cheap homeowners will try this
One would think that the pipes integrity would be compromised by doing this 🤔 not to mention the nasty kink in one of the bends.
I noticed that too. Looked like one end may have almost closed of.
time is money. you just got rokt
Good luck passing a building inspection. Just buy fittings, they're plenty cheap, especially plastic ones
I don't know....the building inspector might give you a few points for making him laugh?
The time going to take the plumber is greater than the cost saving...
I'm a tile installer. Wish I could bend tile like that.
You can using that plastic tile.🙄🤣🤣
Is this to control speed of water flow?
And I thought I had seen everything ......What a bodge job!!!
Pakahirap klng bos
👌
I recommend use this trick only for electrical pipes
Yeah, with how often you're gonna be replacing that you're probably gonna save more by just going for the elbows in the first place.
Elbows and pvc solvent cement are cheap in the first place. Heat gun, pipe benders cost more plus the time need to make those bends
LOL. Funny stuff. Love the comments. :D
when you hot pipe pipe. it decrease it flexibility hence it reduces it strength.
Kelama'an udah ada yng pasti milih yng susah..
if a plumber do this, he is expecting a massive law suit for damage,
