Stupid plumbing questions

[Babybrown1249]

How often do you all replacing your plumbing tubes from your sump including if you use PVC?

[thegrun]

Never, but i do clean them once a year.

[Babybrown1249]

do you use pvc or tube?

[thegrun]

do you use pvc or tube?

Both. I suppose after 5 years or so the flexible tubing would get brittle and need replacing.

PVC should last a very long time under normal conditions. Run to fail. It's likely bulkhead gaskets are going to give you trouble before PVC. I still use a manifold I made in '99 (1" PVC schedule 40).

I would expect it to last for many years. I'm sure I will change mine at some point due to an upgrade in equipment.
