PH Smoke Pellets 13X16G are a pack of 13 smoke pellets, 16g each, for smoke testing drains, soil stacks and flues to find leaks and check runs. Pick them up at Plumb Parts in Glasgow.
PH Smoke Pellets 13x16g give off a thick cloud of smoke when lit, which lets you see where air and gases travel in a drain, a soil stack or a flue. This pack holds 13 pellets of 16g each.
Using PH smoke pellets for testing
Smoke testing shows up leaks that water tests miss. Light a pellet in a drain or at the base of a stack, seal the openings, and watch where the smoke comes out. Smoke seeping from a joint, a cracked pipe or round a WC pan points to the fault. Engineers also use smoke to check flues and chimneys for leaks and to see if they are drawing.
With 13 pellets, one pack covers several tests, which suits a busy drainage or heating engineer.
Specification
- Suitable for: Smoke testing drains, soil stacks and flues
- Pack quantity: 13 pellets of 16g each
Common Questions
How long does a smoke pellet burn?
Burn time depends on the pellet size and make, and the pack gives the figure. Have the system sealed and someone watching the likely leak points before you light it.
Can I smoke test a drain myself?
A householder can, with care, but warn neighbours on a shared stack first. If you find a leak on a shared drain, the repair may need agreement with the other owners.
Will smoke set off fire alarms?
Yes, smoke reaching an alarm will usually trigger it. Cover or isolate alarms in the area only where it is safe and allowed, and put them back the moment you finish.
Safety tips from our Glasgow counter
Read the instructions on the pack before lighting one. Tell the people in the building and any neighbours what you are doing, because smoke appearing inside a home causes alarm. Disable or cover smoke alarms in the area if it is safe and allowed, and put them back afterwards. Never light a pellet near anything flammable. Keep the pack dry, as damp pellets may not burn properly.
PH Smoke Pellets 13X16G sit with smoke matches and drain dye in our accessories range.
