FAQs
What is the purpose of the OsmaSoil Weathering Collar?
The OsmaSoil Weathering Collar is designed to create a watertight seal between a PVC-U soil pipe and traditional lead or aluminum flashing at roof penetrations, preventing water ingress into the building.
What type of flashing is this collar compatible with?
It is specifically designed for use with traditional lead or aluminum flashing materials commonly found at roof stack terminations.
How is the weathering collar installed?
It is installed by solvent welding it onto the PVC-U pipe directly above the flashing. Proper preparation and application of PVC-U solvent cement are required.
Does the collar help with the roof pitch?
Yes, the collar features a unique keyway designed to ensure the correct fall or angle is achieved relative to the roof pitch, aiding water runoff.
Can this collar be used with any type of pipe?
No, this collar is specifically designed for use with Wavin OsmaSoil 110mm and 160mm PVC-U pipes.
What maintenance does the weathering collar require?
The weathering collar itself requires no specific ongoing maintenance. However, regular inspection of the surrounding roof flashing and seals is recommended.
What are the dimensions of the collar?
The collar is available for Wavin OsmaSoil 110mm and 160mm pipe sizes.
Troubleshooting
Collar does not fit snugly on the pipe.
Ensure you are using the correct size collar for your specific OsmaSoil pipe (110mm or 160mm). Verify there are no obstructions or damage on the pipe end.
Solvent weld joint appears weak or is separating.
Ensure the pipe and collar surfaces were clean and dry before applying solvent cement. Re-apply solvent cement according to manufacturer's instructions, ensuring sufficient quantity and holding time.
Water pooling around the flashing area.
Check that the keyway is correctly oriented to achieve the necessary fall. Ensure the flashing itself is correctly installed and sealed, and that the collar is positioned directly above it as intended.
