And high pressure plumbing. To say I'm shocked is an understatement . However, about everything in order.
Last fall, a new water supply was laid in our SNT. For some reason the pressure has gone up. A branch to our site was made next to the water tanks and a tap was installed there.
We put a short hose on the pipe and filled the tanks , drew water into the bath - everything was fine.
Then the June heat came and it became necessary to water the entire garden , including bushes and apple trees and a potato plot. The watering hose, when dragged, bends to a kink and is knocked out by water pressure from the pipe. I bought clamps and tightened all the joints.
Conducted tests: the watering hose gradually inflates under pressure and throws it out along with the clamp. It became clear that it was necessary to make solid connections , and not indulge in clamps.
I am a plumber , so I watched a video on YouTube of the same discoverer of HDPE pipes , drew a "beautiful" drawing of the future plumbing and handed it to the manager of the plumbing market:
In the end, I was given the following package:
At the sight of these plastic fittings, the mother-in-law began to have doubts "will the plastic hold up? Have they given us everything?"
Next came the game "what is this thing for?"
As a result, the two of us figured out which spare part should spin where, solitaire converged. All details are in place. Installation of the entire structure was scheduled for Saturday.
We leave with my wife on Saturday to the dacha , on the way we still argue what needs to be done first: bury the pipe or assemble and check all the connections. We arrive at the dacha and my jaw falls to the ground with a roar - the plumbing is installed!
- Mom , who collected everything for you?
-Herself. When the watering hose was knocked out again , I got so angry that I pulled out all the details and assembled it as you showed. The fum tape remained from the installation of the tank in the bath. I wrapped and tightened them.

At the junctions, of course, water drips quietly , but ...
…THIS IS MADE BY A PENSIONER IN THE EIGHTH TEN YEARS OF LIFE!!! .
She never touched plumbing in her life , she worked as an accountant-cashier .
So think now: are pensioners now so literate or progress has advanced so much that any inhabitant can collect water supply ...
Save so you don't lose
