pvc water line

[ethompson]

I finished a pvc water line last weekend. How soon can I use it to water trees? Because of the primer and glue.

I would think immediately. I know a lot of folks who drink water from their faucet ten minutes after repairing pvc waterlines servicing their house.

ok thanks. Thats what I was planning on doing if I didn't hear from anyone by the time I have planted.

Most of those glues set quickly and are at full strength in a few hours.

I would think that with in a few hours you can fully pressure the system without worries
before watering tree's I would personally run a few minutes to wash out anything in lines to be more sure water is coming out clear and clean
this as long as not a issue with lines freezing
still dropping to below freezing here, ha all icy in bird baths and on steps yesterday morning and snow flurries that night
