You may not need them, a good sewer/drain person can help you determine the general location by just "snaking" your main lines. There are more sophisticated methods but since you probably haven't had your pipes "snaked" (for a while) this is the cheapest method to give you a good idea of the route of the lines.

What is the difference between soil and waste pipe?

Soil pipes and waste pipes serve distinct roles in a building's plumbing system. Soil pipes are designed to carry human waste from toilets, necessitating a larger diameter and steeper gradient due to their solid content. These pipes are crucial for safe waste disposal and are directly linked to sewage systems. In contrast, waste pipes handle liquid waste from sinks, showers, and appliances. Smaller in diameter and with a gentler gradient, they efficiently transport non-toilet wastewater. Proper functioning of both types of pipes is essential for maintaining a hygienic environment. For all your plumbing needs, trust Al Hatimi. Our range includes top-quality products for both soil and waste systems, ensuring your plumbing functions seamlessly.

How do you use bentonite in electrical grounding?

Bentonite has an affinity for water. By packing Bentonite around the ground rod it increases the conductivity of the ground rod. Ground rods are not supposed to have a resistance above 5 ohms when compared to the utility's ground grid. Getting the ground rod into this resistance zone in bad soil conditions is aided by the use of Bentonite.
