When working/repairing pvc pipe is it really necessary to use the blue pvc cleaner? Please advise Herb


I had to repair some PVC several weeks ago. I was just looking at my
can of PVC adhesive and it gives specific instructions about wiping off
the cut part after chamfering and then how to apply the adhesive. There
was nothing about using PVC cleaner.


The primer / cleaner is just one aspect of PVC pipe fitting.

My pool pipes are 2 inch ~ 10 PSI?

I bow to your expertise. These are just drains under no pressure. My
new adhesive is good for both CPVC and PVC so it might be different.
