Types of sewer line pipes from old to new

Clay:-

Clay sewer pipes were commonly used in older homes. While no longer popular, they can still be used for new installations today. The material does not degrade from chemicals but it is heavy, hard to cut, and prone to breaking due to pressure from underground roots.

Orangeburg:-

Made of wood fibers and special water-resistance adhesive, Orangeburg pipe was popular with plumbers in the past because it’s light and easy to cut. Unfortunately, it’s not very durable – its lifespan is less than 50 years – so it’s not a viable option for new installations anymore.

Cast iron:-

About as strong as you can get, cast-iron is found still found in many homes. It can be installed today but not as often as modern plastic pipes. The downsides to cast-iron are that the material is heavy, requires special tools to cut, and expensive. But if it’s already in your home, it’s not something to worry about.

PVC and ABS:-

There are two types of plastic pipes that are used underground for sewer lines. PVC and ABS are quite similar, though they have different codes and use different adhesives. They also differ by color – PVC is white and ABS is black. In general, PVC is more flexible and ABS is stronger. Both materials are good choices for a new sewer line since they’re inexpensive and the plastic helps prevent roots from causing a blockage.

Waste Water Pipeline:-

They are used to transport wastewater which is composed of a high percentage of water and a small percentage of solid wastes. These pipes can be manufactured from concrete, PVC, cast iron, or clay based on the pressure in the pipe and other conditions. Pipe sizes are controlled by the type of materials and pressure in the pipe.

Water Pipeline:-

It is employed to transfer water from treatment plants to buildings. Generally, such pipelines are installed underground few meters beneath the cities and streets based on frost line of the location and the need for protection against accidental damage. These pipes can be produced from steel, ductile-iron, and concrete.

Sewerage Pipeline

The sewer line is a single pipe that transports all your wastewater from inside your home to the sewer main that’s underneath the street.

Sewerage Pipeline :- The pipe runs through your front yard, a few feet underground replacing a sewer line on your property is one of the most costly and disruptive home plumbing problems.

Sewerage is the whole drainage system that uses sewers. So you never need to use the word infrastructure; you can just say sewerage. A sewerage pipeline can be any part of the sewerage system, so it is more general than sewer pipeline.
