+BobcatReefer Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Been limping along on 1 overflow for 2 weeks now, and the replacement part is scheduled for delivery later today. I can get the plumbing cemented within about 42 seconds after arrival, but how long should I wait for it to cure before hooking it back up to the system and flowing water?

Juiceman Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I usually wait about an hour or so... and then go for it... but that’s me.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Dogfish Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Me No pressure = a few min for the glue to set up. Med Pressure = 15 min to 1 hour depending on temp. and air circulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+BobcatReefer Posted September 20, 2018 Author Share Posted September 20, 2018 Thanks all. I can wait another hour, but 24 would have me: https://i.imgur.com/0st06qB.gif?1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek Weise Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 You're fine after an hour. When I did mine, I don't think I even waited that long for the overflow plumbing. I did let my return pump pipes sit for about 8 hours before turning it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
