Hi all I need to replace a 4 inch Marley plastic push fit Y connector with a double so I can run two WCs on the one downpipe. Major problem is access-- the bottom of the Y is below ground level in a space 8 inches square.The top of the Y is the air stack which is vertical to the roof all this is located in a cupboard 2 feet square by 7 foot high. I was thinking of using my trusty demolition reciprocating saw with an 8 inch blade to saw up the plastic--is there an easier way--pipes were installed 30 years ago. I do not want to disturb the existing pan connection which goes to the loo 5 feet away--I realise of course the Y connection to it will have to be gently? disconnected. I am hesitating on this task as after starting we have no loo until completion
