Can you cut into cast iron soil pipe with plastic soil pipe?

You can put up to a 2 inch pipe into a 4 inch. If you are putting 4 inch to 4 inch, either take out a section of the cast and put the PVC in or cut out a section and connect the PVC to the cast with rubber sleeves meant for this. You can use a saddle clamp for the 2 inch. It is a half round piece of PVC with a 2 inch connection in it. It is held on with two U bolts that go around the cast pipe. Put it where you need it and mark the 2 inch hole on the cast. Drill a series of 1/8 inch holes around this circle. when you get them all drilled, you can break out the plug. Try to keep it from falling into the cast pipe. Put the saddle clamp on and connect the PVC pipe as needed. Seal the saddle clamp to the cast pipe with plumbers putty.

How do you tap into an existing 3 PVC drain pipe in order to insert a tee connector?

Measure the length of your tee, subtract 1 1/2 to 2 inches for each socket depth on the ends. The amount that is left over after you subtract for the sockets is what you want to cut out of the existing pipe. You should be able to spread the pipe apart enough to fit the tee in place when ready to glue. Or you can buy a saddle for the size pipe you want to hook in and use a hole saw for that size pipe and drill the hole in the 3 inch on the side. The saddle will fit around the pipe and cover the hole and now you have a non spliced tee. And make sure you use purple primer and heavy duty grey glue when gluing this. It will never leak and does not disolve from harsh toilet bowl cleaners.
